For now, it will be fine since I have other things to worry about, one of them being the resource page wich needs to be done. Thanks for the input.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this.good luck I think it looks ok, and hey, if it doesn’t, u can change it later on…the concept is what makes the difference (for me, at least).

As I said before, we'll pay a professional to do the graphics when we have the money. As for the clutter, our aim was to give the player everything above the fold. Based on my own experience in browser games, I apreciate having data like production, capacity, troops, at my disposal at all times, without having to navigate to a certain page every time I need that information. To be honest, telling Mars right now to rethink and change the game template again would most likely get me killed, and the game postponed for another month. So we'll go with what we got right now :). Thanks for the input. It's appreciated :). B, I agree that it’s not the best looking graphics right now, and you might be right about the clutter.

Your graphics look really cluttered and, well, ugly. Have you considered toning it WAY down so that you can set yourself above the myriad of other similar games that look horrible to casual gamers? Gameplay is where it's at. I came here the same way, and I would classify myself as a casual gamer. Your graphics look really cluttered and, well, ugly.

This looks like a fun game, I'll be checking back once a week or so to see if there's been any progress ^_^ Oh yeah, it was a search of 'Travian' that brought me here. I clicked on a review by some guy, and you had posted a comment, which I clicked on the bottom of to bring me here =P ~DW What brought me here was a series of random Google Searches, but I’m glad they worked out how they did!
