Build and manage your own goblin settlement! Goblins are the perfect starting point for your nefarious empire: They eat, they sleep, occasionally they do some work... Wait, let's not focus on that!
Your goats can: * Eat! * Sleep! * Wander aimlessly! * Be carried off by hungry goblins!
This was an attempt at a Dwarf Fortress-style management game. I'd wanted you to be able to send marauding goblins to pillage nearby villages, but that was more than I had time for. Whoops!
Everything was working fine until all the goblins just froze and I couldn't get any more stone to spawn new goblins. They all just stopped on the middle of my map.
munchor: It's not made clear, but goblins go to the campfire (Looks like a ring of rocks, notably lacking any fire) to eat. If there's no food, they just wait there. I'm guessing that's what happened.
Nice game. Overall it was fun to do stuff and watch your goblins do stuff. Although they were very lazy breeding new goats until they had to. Nice work, had much fun playing it.
Very nice. I enjoyed this. Especially the sounds effects. Pixel graphics for the sprites were great, backgrounds could use some work. I'd like to be able to lead a goblin raiding party! Please keep working on this!
I liked the game, especially the sound effects. I understand that you didn't have the time to finish the game as you originally wanted to, but I still think it could have had some simple goals (like get X amount of resources, raise your population to Y members, etc).
Thumbs up for nomnom sounds :D Cute rts like. Would be nice if you could assign jobs to goblins. Looking forward to the pillaging part of the game. Loved the animations aswell :D
Awesome feel to the game. An objective would have really helped, I didn't really have anything to work towards. Also, I felt as though there should have been music.
I'm sad there wasn't any time to add a goal. Just building up is surprisingly fun though! I love the sounds! Although the sprites were very cute, having the gobbos walk behind buildings really detracted from the experience for me. Even if you didn't have time to implement pathfinding, I'd have prefered them to appear on top. I'm afraid I can't give you much for theme, as all there is at this point is a loose tie-in to Dwarf Fort. Overall, I enjoyed it!
A nice start to something, it becomes a bit easy once you've got a stable source of food and stone though, would be nice to have something to be fighting against. The omnomnom sound is great.

They felt like living characters and that was very enjoyable :)
Well done!
