RE: Archipelago - Player elimination, game phases and declaring a winner!
I really like the look of your game. It feels like a board game like the ones I play with my friends!
But I didn't understand how to play it. I couldn't find a tutorial but I didn't search for long. You should do a basic tour for new comers or start a tutorial game. In video games when you start and you don't know the control, the game takes you by the hand and in a matter of minutes you know how to play.
Let's go for the review:
Well this is going to be short as I don't have much to say, you've done an excellent job.

You make a good use of comments it really helped me understand your code quickly

And well that's all, again good job!
I hope you'll do a tutorial :p

Thanks Grégory!
Yes, the game definitely needs some form of in-game guide or initial instructions, possibly a list of rules and a map key too. Also a backstory and a little more graphics / branding to give it a more rounded professional feel. All to come once I've finished off the functionality of gameplay and done a little gameplay testing (just so that I don't have to re-write the instructions each time I find I need to change something in the game).
Thanks for the feedback tips and the link to the style guidelines too. Very useful!
