Soul Builder
A short worker/resource management game created in 72 hours for the Ludum Dare game jam with the theme "Your Life is Currency". To construct the Temple of Souls, you'll have to make a few sacrifices. Play by dragging workers and resources into the appropriate slots to unlock and power new buildings.
Known issues:
- No music/audio
- Bug where workers keep working on the victory screen

I love the game, but maybe you could add a variation where you need to do it in a certain way where you have a limited number of souls and need to regenerate them like a puzzle + incremental
would love an expanded version
GG!
A fun and short incremental game. The soul mechanic is quite clever.
really cool concept and I like how it works with gameplay
Oops. I can't even see the temple lmao
Workers are fallible, golems eternal
short + sweet :)
The sacrifice mechanic was a really good idea!
10 Minutes... Fun game, I really want this expanded... please!!
are those golem
yes
i love this game (you should make a sequel)
Victory always requires a great cost.
Last Stand
So, Is this game a social commentary about AI workers replacing humans!! :O
Glorious Evolution
Doesn't work on Samsung Galaxy
Awesome little game, loved it!
Believe!
HOW?!
I won!
hail the omnissiah
You can get up to 6 souls for the first sacrifice, and 13 for the second.
Should leave you with 7 workers by the end.
wait you can sacrifice golems?
You can't and you don't need to. All your workers are enough to unlock everything.
Ehehe
Ehehe
i had five workers left
Yall realize you can click when dropping the worker to get multiple souls right? I've gotten up to 3 souls for 1 worker
it does work,I get 2 souls per worker
You can get four from one human.
i got 9 from one human.
oh good bug :)
Great game, just spent an hour trying to save one person :3
i had two humans left at the end
How?
No you didn't.
it's possible it's just you have to be smart about the sacrifices it is possible to have 2 left and I have all my stuff ran by glomes
Its ever possible with 3.
This:
To this:
i got 4 left
It's sad when you finally build the temple but have no one left to enjoy it :(
The golems get to enjoy the temple ^^
I LOVED IT, when the games end i was like noooooo very good game
golem >>> human
how did browser did not crash?!
like everyone else, i definitely see a little story in this game. intended or not. it's a lot of fun and those small pixel people are so cute!
Started with 8 people. but when everything was done, there was no one left for the temple. just tireless golems remains. oh...........
The game really surprised me with the amount of feelings it was able to evoke in me. If you don't make any golems there will be only one worker alive when the temple is finished and that's just so lonely but if you do make the golems then none of the workers that began the construction will even get to see the finished temple, so what's the point? And if there's only golems left at the end what will they do when the temple is finished? Cause the thing they were created to build is finished and the people that made them are gone. Seriously the game sent me in a existential crisis spiral.
interesting game
Really fun game! Are you planning on developing it further?
Victory... but at what cost?
I saved 6 humans by using a little exploit :) when you convert humans to souls, if you click very fast you can get 3-4 souls from one sacrifice.
Oh thanks. I used an autoclicker (gave 8 souls) and only had to kill one
what auto clicker did you use
?
Autoclicker 1.2 but I couldn't repeat the record now, only 4 :(

damn
I really liked it! It is good for what it is, but I think you have the start of something great here! I look forward to future iterations. :)
Short but fun! The pixel art is great too :D
This was such a unique game, let alone for something made during Ludum Dare! I love the metaphor and the experience as a whole :D I didn't even consider that the golem factory required a soul and that's how to save a person, oh noooooooooooooooo I just dove into it like "YES!!! More workers!!!!! Let's doooooooo thisssssssssss!!!"
