- cool title screen and great background music!

- I didn't like not being able to build stuff during eclipse because I spent the whole bright time on scavenging resources and then couldn't build more towers during eclipse

- dragging items from inventory does not work: I just have to click an item, then move the mouse to where I want it and click again

- the base area was laggy for me, but I am on an old laptop with integrated graphics, so that's probably not a common issue

- some SFX when hitting enemies might be nice, sometimes it was hard to tell if I was hitting anything

Edit: oh, and I got stuck in a wall after stepping on a teleporter

Thanks for the feedback! We will add these issues to the bug tracker and tackle them for the next release!

Nice gameplay loop, good graphics. A bit hard in the beginning, wish I had more money so I could try buying everything to figure out which was which. Best in the game was the music that was a straight banger!

Awesome to hear! Thanks for playing! Well let our music guy know :)

There are resources around you just have to find them!

Getting an error when trying to play. It says features are missing. :(

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that what OS and browser are you using? It seems to work fine when played in browser, but i want to see if there's a bug somewhere

I'm using Windows 11. The browser is Chrome. Everything is up to date. 

Hmm, I haven't seen anything that would cause that, perhaps it was an Itch.io issue.

I tried it again and everything was working this time. 

Awesome game! I liked the music and the gameplay. I really enjoyed the teleportation circles. Those added another element of strategy to the game. 

Thanks for the feedback friend! Glad to hear and thank you for coming back.
