Interesting but I got a few questions, one how do you add food so people don't starve? Do people just naturally find food on their own?

Cool concept, if you expand on this I could really see it taking off. After around 3000+ population I had A LOT of freezes in the game though.
This is an interesting, original and entertaining game. I just think it could be so much better. Maybe provide more ways to interact with your world, other than just designing islands and causing disasters. Ways to feed your people would be nice as the many messages of "[insert name here] has died of starvation at [age]" are a little disheartening if you're trying to keep your people alive and thriving. It would be fun to input animals, time changes, lightning, weather control and methods of controlling your people, although i can see that being difficult. Other than the aforementioned problems it's an incredible game that makes you feel like a god. Also the mechanics for meteors and fire are pretty good.
This is a fun game only I found it deceptively bare bones. By that I mean that the game at first looked like it had a load of options and many different facets to use said options, but once I learned how to control the game, I found myself wanting more but not in a good way. In a word I would describe this game as lacking. Yes the destruction mode is fun to use as is all destruction modes, but it doesn't seem to have the same impact as the destruction modes in something like Sim City mostly because the scale in Sim City is much smaller and therefore allows for much more detail like burning buildings and completely totaled infrastructures. When I play with the destruction mode in this, I don't get that same impact because, for the most part I'm only looking at dots on a screen. I know this is asking a bit much, but how about a "scroll" button. The further you scroll in, you can see the actual cities and infrastructures in the cities. If you want to go even further than that, let us design each individual city. This way you get that same god like feeling where it actually feels like you're destroying cities instead of dots with little roads. I see so much potential with this game. It would be a shame if this didn't improve.
3/5
The programing is pretty impressive. This could be the basis for something much larger one day, but right now it's not very much fun.
