Ahoy Ahoy Cairnswk,
This map at the beginning didn't really interest me, but it's starting to grow on my like an infectious lesion.
So lets look at the map:
First off, I like the movement around the map...the toilets and the dog house help move everyone around. Even the paths increase movement, which is what I like. Looking at the game play, it looks pretty sound. Nothing glaringly stands out like it is unbalanced.
Regarding graphics, I'd look into perhaps a pattern for the path that isn't so "precise," you know? Something that isn't perfect squares and right angles. I think that'd increase the realism.
For the bottom legend, I'd look into perhaps bolding the "All Neighbors & Dining Room +4"...or at least make that stand out a little bit, since it isn't with the other main bonuses in the top right.
I'd also consider doing the same for the toilets...maybe look into changing the font color down there to a perhaps a slightly different shade of brown.
On the small map, the text looks a little weird...I think it must be the size and the yellow. On the large map, it doesn't bother me, but something about it on the small map does, but not sure you can do anything about that.
Lastly, is your signature supposed to be bed/garden of flowers? If so, I'd work on it a little bit, it looks odd and pixely. If it isn't, I'd consider making it a bed of flowers!
It's coming along!
--Andy

I think you have enough room to make these rooms come alive, and not just be boxes with boxes in them.

All I can say is the Siss is a damn spoilt brat for having her own damn sauna.

Skittles....i used the word Sauna and Suite for Siss as these are probably more a girlie thing that boys don't worry about and find un-masculine...you know word assocation, which also works for Bud having his Romp and Tub.
