A game where you build a world from barren wastelands into a thriving civilisation.

Game JAR can be found here: http://www.drentsoft.com/ludumdare/ld38/dSmallWorld.jar

It should run on Windows, Mac & Linux but it's only been tested on Windows.

The game is very much unfinished but it's the best we could do in the time we had.

It's sort of an expandable Wetrix but instead of lakes you're creating villages etc.

Move with WASD or arrow keys.
You can rotate placable tiles using Q and E.
You can press space to place a spawning tile early or they'll be placed automatically if they can.
Hold Left Alt (up and right) or Ctrl (down and left) to offset the spawning tiles to see what's under them.

Features that we didn't get to implement:
Herd and predator tiles
Calculating score based on village size
Calculating river size and proximity to villages
Proper blight tile spreading.

We hope you enjoy the game as it is and can see through its flaws :).

I liked the overall concept for this game. It feels like an interactive board game. One suggestion would be to incorporate the mouse into the game to make it more intuitive.
