I'm hoping that this is fixed (you may need to control+F5 to uncache the game). If it's not, try enabling "Less Graphical" in the Options menu. If it *still* doesn't work, send a bug report (there's a link below the game) with your computer specs and I'll try to figure out what's up.
It shouldn't require more culture for research points after you do a cultural exchange. It makes culture growth entirely pointless, and you end up just waiting for nomads to happen by so you can get research points. This is just for sandbox mode though. Great game
If you start with 9999 gold just buy a bunch of laser pointers till it goes back to zero. Makes this game way more fun when you actually earn the upgrades
The sniper is not useful given the fact that everything is already a one shot kill with the best shotgun and a few damage upgrades. Tougher enemies to come in the full game perhaps? Either way it was a lot of fun!
