This is in my top three games I have ever played for a Ludum Dare. It is one of the most fun, compelling, and all around well done. The art is good, the sound and music are great, the mechanics just work. In a way, this sort reminds me of Cookie Clicker or something, where you are just always upgrading to get more cookies so you can upgrade to get more cookies so you can upgrade to get more cookies so y- Well, you get it. But it works in this case! Even my biggest gripe with this game is very small. The workers are kind of stupid and slow. Big whoop. I love the building a colony sort of thing and watching them all run around. Very very very good job. (The humor in the beginning is some of the best LD plot I have ever read. Into the sun.)

Solid AI, pretty solid graphics, solid audio.\r\rI let it do it's thing for a couple hours and came back to literally over 1,700,000,000,000,000 credits. While this is cool, I think it's also a problem. Once you have the basics set up, you can afk until you have enough money to win the game. Also, the moods of the workers never really came into play as soon as I built one cafe and one bar, so I think that perhaps there should be a limit to how many workers a room can accommodate. And lastly, it would have been really nice to see the workers in different outfits based on their profession.\r\rBut all in all, well done. :)"},{"author_name":"Josisen","author_uid":"37930","time":"May 14, 2014 @ 3:24pm","epoch":1400080740,"text":"10\/10 very good indeed!
