First attempt at a Ludumdare. great weekend!
made a little survival game.
left mouse click only.
gather resourses but dont break your tool you only get one.

ps. you can repair your tool in the house.
added exe to allow easy run of game

17/12/2013 - fix flint use for repairing tool has a 3 in the check rather than 4

When you lose and start the game again, the trees and stones don't reset so you might not have enough things to do on the first day and get stuck. Also next jam consider not having to install the whole game as it may drive some testers away. Interesting idea though !

sorry, I won't install games. Looks like a great first attempt though

Awesome. Don't look like something super, but I have enjoyed it! 4* for absence of sounds and bad graphics.

LewisChaplinauthor16 Dec 2013, 15:43

have added exe as most comments about this. will just put exe for the next compo. thanks for the comments :D

Came back after you added the exe, not a bad concept. ^^

LewisChaplinauthor17 Dec 2013, 11:43

Windows-exe should be a working exe have tried it on my computer and my friends who has no development tools on his computer. please comment if not working will check it and try fix if there is a problem

Great for a first attempt, i love the concept. (I really like these sorts of games). It is a bit long atm.

Well done on your first LD! This was mine too. I think you should carry on, you clearly have an idea on a direction you want to go!

Pretty good actually. I played it a few times.

occash22 Dec 2013, 13:40

I only can collect berries.. and what to do after that-I don't understand...

LewisChaplinauthor23 Dec 2013, 18:34

the aim of the game is to survive to do this you need to collect food the other resources are for house upgrades that will help you survive you only have one tool that you don't want to break see how long you can survive

I wasn't quite sure what was expected of me, could've used more guidance.

A rather different survival game. It is somewhat difficult to understand or play well, but it is intriguing to see how long you can survive, and what use you'll make of your limited actions.
