And I was RIGHT, this is the greatest planet ever, if I leave them to their own devices a little more, they'll have skyscrapers by tomorrow.\n\nAs you probably guessed, your game managed to do exactly what it set out to do: Present a canvas where players could experience their own stories. The frame story with God Ross worked incredibly well as a tutorial and for setting the mood. Huge props to the voice and art guy, he really made it work! Speaking of mood, same goes for the relaxing music that seemed to time perfectly with the planet's normal rotation.
