Um... please change the icon for "Fire Hero".
I thought it was some sort of upgrade to a fire elemental class.  Since there was a fire next to it.  Make your hero fire based.  It's also next to a bunch of other upgrades.
I was then very confused when my hero was gone with all of my best loot.
: (

So, I got annihilated pretty quickly.  Certain items were great, others didn't stop the hordes worth a damn.  (seed gun was weak after the HP increased,  Licking tongue was strong.)  I also kept upgrading the size of bullets only to see no real difference.  
What's the purpose of the coins?  I got 7 one time, but they disappeared in the next run.  Wasn't sure.

Interesting.  Made me want to play another game to figure things out.  So it's a solid concept.  The mobs just destroy you at a certain point, although jumping is pretty useful.  

Fun!  I will say that once the card is covered with stickers, I have no idea what the original suit is.  But that could be by design.
Something I would be more careful with during a second run,
Highly enjoyable, though!

Not sure what anything means. How are skulls created.  What's the difference between resources. 

Correct.  That's what I was referring to.  I get that it's a thing that you want to be an option, but maybe you have to delete something to add something?  With the exception of say, switching a factory unit  from screws to plates, that makes sense.    

I did eventually figure out you need a pylon.
I found automatically deleting the last thing you built to be awful.  I never remembered to move to a new space.  I feel like there should be a checkbox for "auto delete" or place in empty space.

I've spent more than 5 minutes trying to power my drill with my solar panel.  I've clicked on the drill, and the solar panel.  When I click input, it tells me to change recipe.  "Power consumption 15W" on the drill, but no electricity is being used.

This interface needs to make more intuitive sense.  It's too difficult to figure out on my own.  

I bought "The Kibble Must Flow" instead of "Cat Hoarder", and now I can't continue.  It's waiting for me to buy Cat Hoarder, but I have no more blessings

This is really good.  Satisfying advances.  I did reach a plateau and had to look at the unlocks to play to unlock them.  I did survive 3 patrols in a run and I didn't actually unlock anything.

Quite fun, but the wins slow down pretty fast.  The multi-shot doesn't work great.  When the bullet splits, it targets to either side and won't hit with either bullet.

Healing at a camp site doesn't work as advertised.  I have Water Spirit (Only big hearts during heal) and every other heal I get 0 HP back.  And sometimes if I get 15 hearts, I get 10 HP.  

I banked 0 points and didn't get a ghost die.  SKip and Draw, marble, 8 ball.
Not sure what the issue is

"White Dice are scored as red dice" means you lose against the wolf no matter what.  Not sure if you just get 0x RED, if it is working, but I've tried to see the math and it never seems to work out on the other rounds. Might be worth checking the math. 

Your UI is very difficult to use.  
The upgrades menu takes up the entire half of the screen, and it is closed by clicking the laptop.  But you have buttons on the top where the "close window" button usually is.  The laptop gets hit a bunch while dragging coins.  I would just have it open and close from the top.    
EDIT:  Oh, gosh.  The button is responding to my MOUSE pointer, not your custom created pointer.  This drove me crazy the whole time.  Whe you have to click on a small area, and the hand is covering what you need to click on.

Your "away from" screen said I was away for 22 minutes.  It was about 1` minute.  

I need to be able to turn off your "cool science facts".  They get in the way of game play.    Your science facts are also wrong.  mass and energy are NOT equivalent.  That would b e=m;  They are relative.  

While not full screen, the tips go to the top right corner and block you from seeing.

I appreciate all the rules up front.  But also it's too much to read/ learn all at once.  And very busy to look at.

Also, I do not like the fact that I have a time limit for drowning.  I had a perfectly fine word.  But I am not playing this game for a time limit.  It would be fine if I lose if I don't play enough letters that current word.  Also, it would be good to know what that number is.

If you move the mouse away after dying, but before the red screen clears, the game hangs.
Rather liking it.  Or maybe is just hangs after dying now?  It might be after level 5?

The game froze after Geoffrey , Island king.  Can't click on anything.  Didn't get my upgrade after.

Your "mine with hands" button was very hard to find.  It is the least colored item on the screen, and the one that starts everything.  I would make it green instead of the energy bar.

Every time a shard is mined, the shard list resets.  Meaning, I can't look at the list for more than 3 seconds.

So, the game is functional, but not very fun.  This is a fantastic first step.  The battles are simple.  You lose, then you win.  Not much strategy.  I would have preferred this to auto battle for me.  As in, clicking "Start Battle" wasn't worth it.  

My suggestion is to make it harder, make success incremental, and then increase the people you fight.  Maybe tiers?

Uh, haven't played yet, and the description has me hyped up.  Just for your feedback.

So, for games like this, I like to make progress.  But the way the game is balanced, I will never make progress.  
I could kill bad guys in 5 hits.  I spent the equivalent upgrade money of the mext archer upgrade on increasing gold, meaning that I now kill in six attacks of the archer.  And by the time I get enough money for the next upgrade, I'm at exactly 6 attacks again.
No increase possible.   I like to be able to increase at some point, but the price points keep it just out of reach.  Maybe if I spent no money on increase speed and less on clicks...

I really liked it.  I think it would be fun to have challenges.  

I can see the guys invading my castle!  Hooray!  Now to play the game.
: )

So, I can build all the rooms, but nothing happens when I build the throne room.  I run out of my original rooms, and nothing happens.  No rebuy, no heroes.  Maybe it's broken on Brave?

I had 6 people die in a row.  The succession battle was held and the instant it was resolved, the successor was dead.  Apparently plague?

So, I put the lightning in the lightning spot, and the eye in the square.  I spot a skeleton not sweeping and nothing happens.  I can't figure out how to zap, and the skeleton leaves.  Not sure how to do the thing."Use the Rune"  How?

Does it just take 10 seconds to power up?  I'm confused.

you used you're instead of your.  Otherwise it was good.  Wouldn't mind reading more.  Also, seemingly none of the stuff you warned about (dismemberment, etc.)

This was a very fun idea!  I will add that the difficulty may be too easy, or need more variety?
I beat the first 10 just barely and did't realize that I would continue.  I assumed that I'd take some rewards home and unlock some other stuff, but I continued.  After woods level 7, I stopped as everythign seemed that same and it looked like I could grind out continued levels.  Maybe make rebirth necessary? 

Also, the tutorial made you pause just a bit too long while trying to skip through dialogue.  

Small extra space in gain  "Ga in +5 MAX STAMINA" below.

But really gorgeous job.   
The story is cute and fun and the art is complementary.  Nicely done.

A few comments on the UI.  It would make sense to be able to manage everything on one screen.  Having to click back and then forward was cumbersome

As far as game mechanics, I can't see the property I bought.  I have no idea what icon is on that card.  Manage properties is not a button I can click.  Note: this will ONLY appear if you buy an advisor.  It should be available even before you buy a property.  It can say something like "No properties or managers yet."

  Also, Advisor icon colors are not clear.  Is red bad and green good?  What does no color mean on an advisor?  (you put some info on this in the description, but I should be able to get this info in the game.)

I cannot figure out how to play and do not want to wait 15 minutes to try again. (The amount of time it requires me to get more money,

Also, if you don't pay the blackmail money, you lose all of the other characters and not just the one.
Final thoughts : it was fun, and difficult due to the fact that you couldn't miss one payment or risk having to restart.  Also, how to link the equipment was not clear.  I thought it was added to the job, and not the person.  Plus they spawn randomly.  Sometimes under buildings and you can't find it.  I also coudn't pull any items off, just had to replace it with another.  Otherwise, I enjoyed it!

Minor issue, if you move the guys to the left of the window, the pop up for the characters covers the icon, and you can never move them again.   

I may have been confused, but my dice locked, and it said, succeed on a wager and your die will be unlocked.  I succeeded, but it didn't unlock.

There's and error in the game where if you have 3 cars and you try to move someone from reserves to the car that's already full, it duplicates the top car onto the bottom car.  And then 2 turns later it turns out the bottom car was emptied.  : (

But I did finally win on my 5th/ 6th try.

The RNG is a cruel mistress.  A bunch of fun, though!
I keep getting all cars and no people and vice versa.  Also, how do I use the V8 engine? (edit: OK, it's an extra movement.  That wasn't clear.)

Also, the stats on the car (defense? and seats) don't show, so I'm just guessing.

I woudl like to remember what I've seen on the map, or put a dot on the map myself.  But that's a bit complex.  A lot of fun

I couldn't figure out how to climb the walls.  Only jump/ fall.
24:41 win.  (but went back for more coins!)

If you complete getting a resource and run out of stamina, the pop-up keeps you from collecting the item.  If this is by design, please don't show the resource on the map.  If not, please give me my resource.

So, I reached the end of the upgrades.
It was unclear a few times what effect things would have.  (Your d6's are now 9's!  Does that mean everything that relies on you rolling a 6 is ruined? )
You should also post what upgrades I've already purchased.  I can';t recall them all.
Thirdly, I wand a "amount per second" thing that tells me how well I'm doing.
