CRYSTALON
Your kingdom, like many kingdoms in this world, draws its power from a crystal. The Crystalon. The legends tell, that the crystal can even be used to ascend to other plains where only wealth and pure bliss awaits. But Crystalon also holds an ancient curse. The undead ghosts from realms beyond this world are drawn to the crystal, always seeking to destroy it and everything around.
As the king it is your duty to bring wealth to your kingdom and unveil the mystery of the old legends.

::::::::::::FAQ::::::::::::
Q: Why do my buildings have questionmarks above them?
A: Buildings can only gather materials from adjacent resources. The questionmark is displayed when there is no resource to be gathered. Also note that only lumbermills can process wood, quarries only stone etc.
Q: Where can I find gold, diamonds, etc.?
A: Place a watchtower at the edge of the map to expand your territory. There are plenty of gold and diamond depots on the map. Explore a bit to find them
Got any further questions or something that should be added to the FAQ? Feel free to contact me :)

Ok found diamonds. They're blue rocks. But I don't think there is enough to reach the end >.<
Someone pls I'm not going to make it without diamonds and I can't find them :') Can someone PLEASE help me :'D :'D
OH my gosh I really need to know how diamonds look like nothing I do gets me diamonds :')
pause game would be great I can't get up that's why this sounds hurried. But how does diamond look like?? I can't find them and clicking the blue patches on the ground does not work I wish I could pause cuz I gotta get up aaah crystal is about to die help
This game was great Tho I didn't make it to the end I'm sure gonna play this again. A great small city builder with great simple art.
same when building the second ascend tower
AMAZINGLY FUN! Wow so simple yet so fun. I love that there is no direct tower to attack and you can buff your click easily. Then out of no where boom! GHOST ATTACK! Puts you on your toes and gives it a fast pace feel. Love it. Awesome game.
Please let me pause... or save the game... or give me any way to not lose my progress when I get up to do something...
This game makes really fun! I really like the art style and the sounds. The gameplay is smooth, ghosts are coming faster when you progress.
This game is in my opinion steam-worthy :)
Keep it up!
very cool game - loved the 2.5D or of look. Well done
Yet simple, but I genuinely had fun ! Thanks =)
ummmmm, I cant place down lumberjacks and theres a ghost keep attacking me
You have to click on the trees to get your first wood. I died on this at first try too
I'm really confused on how you get gold. I guess I just got a map with no gold? Fun game though! I like it!
The map is not procedurally generated. The map in the jam entry is always the same. Use watchtowers to expand your area and you will find gold eventually :)
Ahhh Okay! I understand now! For some reason I was putting watchtowers around the crystal. I thought they shot ghosts or spotted monsters.
On the linux download I get:Now working!
Oh shoot. I'm really sorry about that. Sadly, I can't update the files until the rating period is over :(
I've managed to put a new build up, so this issue may hopefully be fixed now :)
Nice entry! First time I died because I did not understand that I can kill the ghost by clicking. Expected a tower defense game. ;)
I really enjoyed this! Took me a while to beat, but it was rather addictive!
Thanks for playing! :)
