Don't have Windows so can't play, but just wanted to say that the graphics are very impressive and cute.

Love the art, it's cute and welcoming. The game is a little tough to get going but it has some decent management systems in, especially for 72 hours! Great job.

@excy Thanks! For the feedback!

I got sick during the development of this game so it's nice to see despite my illness it was good.

Very cute graphics and good minimal music. I failed on my first turn three times in a row and kind of gave up, but it's quite adorable!

The game looks like the yes and no game. But despite that it was very well made!

Seems a bit tough to understand how to rule the kingdom!;) But graphics and music are really nice.

Very well made! The first thing I did was raise taxes to 400%, which made me extremely rich until the population went negative and I was losing money (presumably from the negative population paying negative taxes), until the population went back up again and my money skyrocketed until the cycle repeated. Overall it's fun!

I would have liked a win state. I did like the random events, it made the kingdom feel more alive.

@dk5000p Yeah, when we were designing it. That was one of the things we made sure to include.

Hey, this turned out to be so fun! I'm glad you fixed the bug because I sat down with it and played until I figured out the basics. The most important thing was realizing that "Production" was actually a renewable resource each turn.

Once I got to ~8,000 gold, I cranked up Tax and Food Aid to offset the happiness decrease, and was just building as many farms as I could every turn. Eventually I figured out I could make more workers to make more farms per turn.

Between there and ~75k gold I was spamming clicks on Build Farm and then hitting next turn. That wasn't super fun, because it seemed like there wasn't much for me to do until I had 100k gold to build a wonder!

I was a little disappointed that there was no feedback for any of the choices, especially building the wonder. Even a little popup or sound would make a big difference.

Thanks for building and sharing this cute game!

The animations and music really brought the kindgom alive, and I had fun managing my resource balance. A few more options in the endgame would have been nice.

Nice overall feel for the game. Loved the music and gfx. Too bad you didn't have time to balance. Kinda' know the feeling. 😉
