The engine is clearly in an excellent state. However, it doesn't look to be functioning as a game at the moment. There's no indication what any of the buttons do, and some of them look like the icons may be misaligned.

Placing things is otherwise intuitive and snappy, though. This is going to be fun when it's done.
