Survive!

by ihavepockets

Here is my entry for the Ludum Dare Game Jam entitled Survive!

You play as a shipwrecked sailor that was only able to get one item off the boat before it sank. That item is now your life source as you try to live on this island.

Note: There is no way to win currently. I was going to add the ability to signal for rescue, but time is faster than I.

Here is a timelapse for the entire creation of the game: http://youtu.be/mKAjf0kNnSc

Survive! was made in Unity using: Daikon Forge GUI, Unity's Character Controller Package, and Sounds from freesfx.co.uk
Everything else was made from scratch during the 72 hour period by Johnathan Barbee.

Controls:
WASD to move
Space to jump
E to open/close crafting menu
Left click to interact with stuff

This was pretty good. I spent about ten minuites erecting a lean to metropolis.

Dude I have tried using unity and this looks like it would take a great deal of time. Try expanding it later on but for 72 hours its pretty good!

OSX archive only has an EXE - might need to re-export it with the OSX binary too.

I'll take Linux and Mac off. I have no way of testing them so it would be hit and miss anyways. Sorry about that!

Reuploaded the Linux and Mac versions! They should work now.

Interesting idea. Could use some more polishing.

Thanks! I almost ran out of time just getting all the features in the game. I had almost no time to polish it, but I do agree that it does need more polishing.

Survival game are the games i love the most, so i'm quite interested with your game. Camera sensitivity is a bit painful for me if you continue your game an option to tweak it would be great. the game have a good potential but too rough right now, info on controls would be great even here on the ludum dare page.

I thought it was pretty fun. Enjoyed gaining materials and building new objects.
