Really liking the game so far. The UI takes some getting used to, but I think it does its job alright, and I'm thoroughly enjoying my time with the game so far.
There is a weird bug I'm having: When I move off the game screen (I like to multitask with incremental/idle games), the map just keeps scrolling, even when my mouse cursor isn't on the screen. My only reliable way of avoiding it is by having another application overlap the game screen, alt+tab to it, then move my mouse. The only other way I've found, which is inconsistent, is by flicking my mouse off the screen. My best guess is the game thinks the cursor is in its last known position when the cursor leaves the game (hence why alt-tabbing and moving directly off the screen without touching the edge of the map would work), though I'm unsure why the in-game cursor icon wouldn't show up in this case.
I've got 64 coins. A well is 30 coins but I can't buy another well. To-Do list doesn't mark items as completed. Too many clicks to sell + having to close all menus. No notification about why I can't open the shop or research, just a icon blinking red, suggesting it's still locked.
I suggest that during the tutorial on moving your building, you make sure to have them move it out of the striped area.
I didn't understand that in order to spawn a new building I had to clear the striped area. You should probably explain this in the building tutorial as well.
The fact I can't open the shop until I close all other UI elements is a deal breaker for me. Makes it a PITA. Going from the state you'll likely be in (building menu open, to-do list open) to shop, then back to that same state takes the following inputs: Close building menu, close to-do list, open shop, open water, click max, click sell, click close shop, open building menu, open to-do list. That's 10 inputs for something that should probably just be at most 2 clicks. Also heaven forbid you forgot to check how many items the to-do list asked you to sell. Because then you have to do it all over again, every...single...time.

test new build, delete old save, and try it now new build should fix this
