Overall I like the theme implementation and also the ability to build and craft stuff. The art is nicely done and the gameplay fairly simple, yet in enables you to go deeper. The music and sfx are fitting very well into the overall feel.\n\nPunching trees and stones felt tedious and time consuming, also sometimes tyradine bars were demanded but I could not find a stone within the given time to find an ore to craft it.\n\nA few bugs I encountered:\n- After sacrificing materials, the UI did not update properly and sometimes left me confused\n- sacrificing two sheeps quickly after each other results in a funny text display\n- the flute is really loud (or intended? :^))\n- after losing, I could not play the game again, although I pressed the play button as hard as I could\n- I placed down a workbench and tried to place a furnace, the blueprint spawned inside the workbench and did not let me build it.\n- the pickaxe did not increase the damage on stones (maybe this is a wrong expectation from me)","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":794194,"author_name":"Tulio","author_uid":"tulio","epoch":1649186445,"text":"Nice game!

It made starting a second game feel less tempting as I knew it'd take me 15 mins to catch up to where I'd previously achieved. The gameplay in grinding material gathering games like this isn't for everyone, but I liked that there were different weapons to choose and that you were able to position yourself to mine efficiently. I think the UI interactions could be improve, mostly the visibility of a buildings actions when you interact with it, and the closing of menu's once they are already open. Great that you managed to fit a lot of depth in regarding crafting.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":822676,"author_name":"manio","author_uid":"manio","epoch":1649607782,"text":"I got so sucked into it, I played twice for about 20 Minutes each.

I had extreme slowdowns with the fast gear when hitting 3+ objects at once. But it didn't crash yaay!\nI think the music is really fitting and great for this game! First I was wondering why it didn't loop perfectly, but when playing for like 30 minutes, it's okay to have a bit of silence after a while.\n\nYou need iron bars and blue bars so often, I wish you could create multiple at a time. The green and red gems were almost never used although they almost take as much effort to get as the blue ones. Are the totems and books\/pages useful for anything else but sacrifices? \n\nI wish you would get some kind of punishment for sacrificing sheep, hence the name. Because in the late game I was going back and forth between sacrificing sheep during the process of creating a blue gem bar. \n\nNow that I think about it.. could I have built more than one of each gadget\/workbench?\n\nGod if done right, these kinda games really suck me in haha.\n\nThanks! \n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":825282,"author_name":"his-games","author_uid":"his-games","epoch":1649701255,"text":"I am definitely going to keep working on it, and add things like multi-crafting and other quality of life mechanics.

The graphics and audio are very well done-I loved the music in particular. The gameplay loop is fun in how it encourages experimentation and exploration of the uses of the resources the player currently has. It does run into the issue of a lack of incentive or motivation to get back to where you were after reaching a game over. This is mainly due to the fact that it resets the player back to square one. A gameplay loop that encourages exploration of the current uses of resources like this one does can run into problems if the player can't easily hop back into exploring those new resources (if there aren't other mechanics to keep the player entertained), since it basically forces the player to tread old ground. Some people may enjoy that experience, though, so it's a preference sort of thing. Overall, this was a very well done game.
