Second time around, tried factoring in some sleep this time, but still ran low time and energy!
Instructions (as I never got around to putting them into the game itself, sorry):
WASD - Move
Esc - Pause/menu
Objective: Avoid the angry villagers, find chests, use the money from chests to build traps and other helpful things (click the icon and click on the map to place the trap).
No attacking the villagers. Bad Monster. Monster must be good and only drop them in pits.
I'm slightly disappointed I didn't manage to get everything I wanted in (more traps, enemies and upgrades were on the list of things on my whiteboard), but such is life and game jams. I may come back to this later and fix it up.
I liked the idea a lot, just wish you hadn't taken the time to sleep and could put more into it, I was doing pretty well until I got stuck in a treasure chest :(
Yeah, definitely could've managed my time better this time :( Planned in some sleep, but overslept and was still too tired, need to find the balance between sleep and work next time.
I wish the traps were a bit more effective, since my strategy is basically to make a wall out of holes and wait it out. The most dangerous day is the fast day, since you can generally outmaneuver the villagers any other.
I was pleasantly surprised with how much content there was, but the actual gameplay is lacking in variety, and I only actually died from getting stuck on an obstacle.
Interesting idea, and I like the style. It made me smile several times :) I guess in practice it ends up as mostly just running away from the villagers, as you can't really stop enough of them to make a difference, but still, a nice run-around :)
