Cool strategy game (I hope) City Beneath

Hi.
I'm in the middle of a project called City Beneath.
It's a strategy game with shooter elements.
Could You please check it out and make a comment?
I need to know what people think about it and what should i make better about the game.
Thanks.

If you want opinion upload it on newgrounds.

It's so ugly I don't even feel like trying it out.

eh.. hopefully they are placeholder graphics.. looks like lots of coding.. definatly should have better graphics when done.. im not really sure what to do.. i dug some spots out.. not sure what else or how to get more people and materials

It took me a while to figure out how to get things going. The interface is not very intuitive. Part of this problem is the graphics, which I don't feel communicate what everything is (nutrients, iron, etc.).

I think one thing you need to do is guide the player through the initial steps to set up a city. For example--make most of the structures "technology level 2" so that the player has to set up essential structures first.

I'm not sure what is going on with the battle mode. After a while I started getting attacked, but the battle would last maybe three seconds and I'd lose resources.

All that aside, I did spend a while playing it--so the game did hold my interest.

Thank You everyone for input.
Special thanks for Merrak, who spent some time explaining what I did wrong.
Setting up tutorial and improving intuitivity will be my first goals then.
As for fight, You have to buy mech body parts in hanger and You HAVE TO have a weapon amongst them.
Then You need to fit it to Your mech (15 square grid underneath You parts bar).
Thanks again and I will work on that.

Link doesn't work anymore. Did you take it down?
