#82How do you avoid the beasts that keep killing your guests?
New guests come in when you have vacancies anyway.

#83does anyone know what to do with alien alloy?
There's a fourth "area" (Room | Village | Path) you can get after you explore a whole bunch. The alien alloy is used there.

#85Great game. I'm having fun

#86I'm having a serious problem later on in the game when I have four different options on the screen during a fight. The hover resource-display obscures the action button and reduces the clickable area to a tiny sliver. I'm losing battles that I should be winning, a lot.
Also, it would be really nice if there were arrows that increased/decreased allocations by ten as well as just one.
Or if there was some scroll action hooked up that fired if you were hovered and you scrolled.

#88Is there anything cool after getting the spaceship? I can't keep playing, but I will if I can get more of a fix....
Seriously... I just completed the spaceship sequence and I'm too mad to even react properly (per HN standards). I knew this was gonna happen and it did happen. Shame on me.
Agreed. A minute of dodging, ship goes zoom, and then a game reset. It'd be nice to at least see a summary of my resources, or a score, or anything.

#89I started playing on my nexus and now, with over 60 villagers, I'd like to move my game on the pc. Anyway I could export my game state?

#90I progressed with a rather slow pace but after the Egyptians came and asked me whether I wanted to help build a new pyramid for their current Pharaoh - as apparently I was a top architect known far-and-wide - things became interesting very quickly. With the gold I earned I could buy my own workers and I am now comfortably running a rivaling empire battling the Pharaoh which employed me earlier. I do seem to have trouble with foreign spies passing on weaponry I research. Guess I have to raise the bounty for those who turn in traitors.
