I liked the overall feeling of the game, you captured the &quot;gather ressources to upgrade your village&quot;-spirit surprisingly well. Nice music, loved the funky part at the end.

If only it weren't for that pesky mayor... I recommend to play until the end!\r\n\r\nSimply click on things to interact with them. For example, click on a tree to gather wood. Your workers will do the rest.\r\n\r\n\r\nATTENTION: Sometimes there occures a bug where workers can't return to the surface anymore. You can still play on and finish the game, just mine down to the bottom!\r\n\r\n----------------- How to run -----------------\r\n\r\nWindows: Simply unzip and run Mayoran.exe\r\n\r\nMac: I don't know if I packed it correctly. Let me know if it doesn't work\r\n\r\nLinux: Sadly there is currently no easy way to package a love game under linux. You need to install love 0.9.1. Otherwise: The windows version runs flawlessly under wine though!\r\n\r\n * Ubuntu\/Debian: Package from [here](http:\/\/love2d.org\/)\r\n * Archlinux: install package \"love\"\r\n\r\nAfter installation, run the game via \"love Mayoran.love\"\r\n\r\n\r\n----------------- FAQ -----------------\r\nProblem: How do I gather wood?\r\nA: Click on a tree\r\n\r\nProblem: Where do I find iron?\r\nA: Iron looks nearly identical to stone (sorry), just mine in the lower levels.\r\n\r\nProblem: I can't select a building from the right\r\nA: Do you have enough ressources? Huts and smithy can only be build on the top level.\r\n\r\nProblem: I can't place a building.\r\nA: It can't be placed on other things. Mineshafts can't be built near the edge.\r\n\r\nProblem: My mineshaft comes out at the edge and I can't do anything on the lower level.\r\nA: This is a bug. Just build another one closer to the center.\r\n\r\nProblem: No worker comes up to work on something on the surface.\r\nA: This is a bug I can't reproduce that happens occasionally on windows systems only(?). Just mine down to finish the game, building a smithy is optional.","title":"Mayoran"}
