It's quite hard to know what's going on when the game doesn't tell you when something happens. I didn't find the tutorial very helpful either. Otherwise, I think the game is quite fleshed out, but could use some polishing. I also don't get how it's related to the theme. Good job on UI, graphics and sounds!"},{"author_name":"terrykim426","author_uid":"51391","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 2:28pm","epoch":1429626180,"text":"It feels like a nice game, but the information screen isn't quite clear on how much I'm gaining from each building, hence its a bit confusing whether i'm earning anything at all."},{"author_name":"terpin","author_uid":"51787","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 1:06am","epoch":1429664460,"text":"I got it to run in Chrome just fine, and I love it!

It's a really neat concept, with graphics and audio that enhance the mood really well - I especially like watching the little people moving about on the screen.

Pay attention to the double economy made by Black(dirty) Money and Clean Money. Remember to pay your Fellas and your taxes in order to resist and become the King Of The Block!\r\n\r\n\r\nNote: \"An unconventional weapon\" because if you don't pay, your Fellas'll kill you!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEDIT : thx for all suggestions, I'm making a post combo to update my game =)\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEDIT 2: Post mortem is now (almost) completed!!!!\r\n\r\n\r\nHello everyone! I finally complete my post mortem version of Battle Block Manager. I\u2019ve done many upgrades to the first jam project and add some feature to balance the game. I\u2019ve spent a lot of time doing this version cause I\u2019m alone. =(\r\n\r\nAt first I made a new GUI, I think it more exaustive and functional than before. I\u2019ve also add, as first step, a real calendar.\r\n\r\n\r\nAt second I designed some feature on stores :\r\n\u2013 I\u2019ve add a local economy of every store, every store has to pay taxes and to restists itself; if  not, it goes out of business and it can\u2019t accept deals from citizen.  Consequentially you can pay its debt and buy some percentage of  ownership (or simply pay if you already own it). Store taxes are composed by two part : fixed costs and deals percentage.\r\n\u2013 Stores have now a open\/close hour, when citizens can buy something, this feature influences the fixed cost because it is calculated on how many hours the store are open.\r\n\u2013 Every store has an appeal index that increase\/decrease how many citizen come to the store. Appeal can be increased \/ decreased modifing in the opposite way the average cost or it can be increased activating upgrades. ( In future this index can be related also to an economy index, to a season index or\/and to a trend index. )\r\n\r\nAt third I\u2019ve add some other enemy :\r\n\r\nThief and Killers! The thieves rob from your citizen\u2019s wallets (and they\u2019ll spend less). The killers simply kill citizen, for no reason. xD\r\nInitially this feature was related to the frequence of citizen spawn based on the security of the block, but at the moment this part isn\u2019t completed and tested.\r\n\r\nAt fourst I\u2019ve added some feature on Fellas:\r\n\u2013 in the first version, fellas are simply a guard from enemy, but now they can increase the black deal probabily upgrading in Drug dealer or Weapon Dealer and they can kill Killers and Thives upgrading into Guards.\r\n\u2013 Also Fellas\u2019 gun can be upgrades to be more efficent on enemies.\r\n\r\nAs I\u2019ve already said I\u2019m sorry the game is not so much in theme with \u201cAn unconventional weapon\u201d, my first and still main though was that a gangster can be killed only by financial trouble. So this is the unconventional weapon against gangster. :)","title":"Gangster Block Manager"}
