Wow, played the post-jam updated version just now. You made an impressive amount of game for a jam! How much of it was added post-jam? The visuals and audio are great. I was a bit overwhelmed with info at the start, and mainly played by trial and error to figure out the mechanics. But a very solid foundation of a game. Nice work 😎

I am not very familiar with this kind of games. With this said I enjoyed playing for a few turns.

I felt really overwhelmed at the beginning and it took me quite a while to realize that I was actually gathering resources when clicking on the icons. I think that a short timer bar and a simple animation for the resource number would make it a lot more obvious (nothing fancy, just the number popping up bigger than normal and thn shrinking together with a suitable SFX, like hammer on metal for metals, etc).

I think the game would also benefit by having the screen move a faster when you approach the cursor to the limits.

I loved the polish. The music and the SFX fit the atmosphere very well and there is really a lot of content. It's really solid.

Nice management game, many things could be added or improved, but that is normal for a jam game.

Some tutorials or guidance at the start would improve the experience, as i felt a bit lost at the beginning. The UI could "pop" a little, showing what changed, to attract the player attention, especially in the "Survived another day " screen. I didn't notice that I've lost one person until the food consumption was 30 in the next day, and not 40 as I expected. Overall a nice start.

Good work and good luck!

As requested, copying my comment from submission page to here :)

"Hey, nice submission! An entire survival game is quite an undertaking for a game jam, but you managed to make quite a nice submission in such a limited time! It took me a little to understand what I ave to do, so if you are planning to expand on this game in the future, a bit of a step-by-step tutorial would be neat. For the rest though, nice work!"

Nice shelter resource collecting game, I didn't quite understand the expedition mechanics and mainly focused on getting enough food each turn, I did like that the rooms would visually change when upgrading them  and the overall aesthetics was nice!

Great fallout shelter style game! I saw the previous comments that you had to descope in order the meet the deadline, had pretty much the same feedback as others so I wont bore you with them as you already know :) I love what you did manage to put together in a short amount of time and hope you can continue to expand on your vision with this one!

Very impressive. So much content. It must have been a serious headache to playtest but it looks like the coding doesn't need any debugging. Very well put together. I'm not a fan of turn-based games but i still enjoyed it. :) Great game.

Wow, this game is big. I had some issues with the save feature, but it's probably on my end. This is the kind of game I'd like to play over a few sessions.

Some thoughts:

• Cool splash art at the beginning
• I wasn't able to figure out how to send people on expeditions, and also I couldn't get enough seeds to progress my base (I needed 10 to be able to build a garden).
• For a new player, it's a bit confusing to figure out what each area does. Perhaps it could be useful to leave the name of each area permanently one, and show the details when the player hovers over it.

I think you have a good prototype for a very interesting game here. Keep at it!
