Soul Builder by Rose
A short worker/resource management game. To construct the Temple of Souls, you'll have to make a few sacrifices. Play by dragging workers and resources into the appropriate slots to unlock and power new buildings.

The game is written in Javascript/HTML. I did the design, programming, and art myself - just ran out of time to enter the compo.
Known issues: - No music/audio - Bug where workers keep working on the victory screen
4/29 post-submission update: - Fixed dragging bug which made the game unplayable in Firefox. - Improved dragging performance to make the game generally more playable.

Can't criticize much though! Since this is great work for only one guy. May I ask, what enigne did you use to make this game?
I played way too long and completed it, it is really fun to watch all the numbers rise.
Keep at it!
I really enjoyed playing :)
Congrats
Also, this fits last LD's theme too - "Sacrifices must be made".
Great job!
I'm not sure is the "known issues" for the music and audio means it's a bug or not, from what I understand it's not (a bug that is). If that's the case, since you applied for a Jam you were allowed to get royalty free sfx and music. Next time it's worth considering, as it doesn't take that much time but really adds a lot to a game.
The pixel art is very nice and cute. The UI is clean and understandable. There's always something to do and it's nice and relaxing to see the number grow. It was an enjoyable play through !
By the ways just by curiosity, when you say Javascript and HTML, do you mean a js framework like React or just plain vanilla js (perhaps JQuery) ? (if it's the latter you are brave :P )
I have a small question though, who's the Temple of Souls for, if everyone is dead ? (I thought I could save a few dudes at first, but the Golem army was too tempting)
Anyways it's a really nice game, well done !
