Added computer player <D.A.N.>
Jayisgames: awesome
Jayisgames: ok
joye: godo then no one can join right
breachin82: think so
Jayisgames: so, plains are good for electricity, and rocky spots are good for smithore
Jayisgames: the object of the game is to earn the most in assets by the end of the 12th round
Jayisgames: phases are: land grab, then each player has a limited time to set their MULEs
Jayisgames: then auctions.
Jayisgames: man, it's not going to be easy to teach this game
breachin82: its ok
Jayisgames: let's just play and between each phase i can answer questions
breachin82: sounds good
joye: seems like one of those learn as you go games
Jayisgames: this is the beginning of round 1
Jayisgames: everyone starts out with the same score
Jayisgames: this screen waits for everyone to hit space
joye: lol I like the music
joye: so old school
joye: *grooves*
breachin82: heh
Jayisgames: sean press space
breachin82: its not working
Round 1
breachin82: i have no visual
Jayisgames: press F5
breachin82: i did
Jayisgames: still no visual?
breachin82: nope
breachin82: sorry
joye: is there some kind of rhythm thing here
Jayisgames: press F5 again'
Jayisgames: joye go get a MULE
Jayisgames: that
Jayisgames: taht's an assay
joye: oops
joye: I couldn't figure out how to get rid of it
joye: where were the mules?
Jayisgames: that was an assay, it detects Crystite in the land
Jayisgames: bottom right for the mules
joye: oh they're cute :3
Jayisgames: top right is food
joye: well I'll watch you
joye: lucky you :3
breachin82: downloading mac version
breachin82: should have in the first place
joye: so what are those little things you were picking up
Jayisgames: that was a wompas
Jayisgames: you get money if you find him and hit space near him
Jayisgames: now the production cycle
Jayisgames: now the auction cycle
Jayisgames: you don't really want to buy smithore, it's not critical for survival
Jayisgames: nor cystite
Jayisgames: you do need food and electricity to play each round
Jayisgames: which is why setting a plot to farming and electricity at the beginning is probably wise
Jayisgames: you need to buy
Jayisgames: too late
joye: well this round is practice lol
Jayisgames: it will tell you if you have a surplus or a deficiency
Jayisgames: if you have a surplus, you can usually sell your extra units, but sometimes it is helpful to have more
Jayisgames: there are random events that can happen, which serve to change up the game and strategy each time
joye: I'm still loving the music
Jayisgames: sean, want to figure out why your game isn't working?
joye: we'll definitely have to say in the review that it's a game with a learning curve
breachin82: i have it on my mac now
joye: but I think I'm getting it
breachin82: im sure its the vid card
joye: haha it's an all mac party :)
breachin82: so i was waiting
Jayisgames: i always have to hit F5 before I get any graphics on my Mac
breachin82: this is my pc
Jayisgames: let's quit and start again
breachin82: ok
joye: k
