Day Of The Serfs

[The game breaking HTML5 bug is FIXED!]

🌾 Play as a medieval serf, stealing wheat to fuel a peasant revolution 🌾

Day Of The Serfs would be a simple harvesting game, *if you were harvesting your own crops!*

Adventure through four open-plan levels, hiding from guards and stealing the king's precious wheat. You will have to keep your stealth and wits about you if you are going to feed the rebellion.

🏞️ 4 levels and 7 voice-acted characters 🏞️

For our take on the *harvest* theme, we aimed to build a world that was amusing but also populated. There are incedental and player-triggered voice lines to be heard throughout, telling you more about the state of the kingdom and the people within it. You can carefully follow guards to hear what's on their mind.

🧩 Many ways to play 🧩

Each level has unique puzzles and patrols, but there is never a set route for you to take. You can sneak your own way through Farmer's Field, Slunham City and more.

Good luck!

The stealth provided a great level of challenge and the dialogue was hilarious. Job well done.

I really like the graphics, the drawings were really funny and I like how they were placed in a 3D world.

Also, good job guys on the voice acting, you are extremelly good at it.

Small bug: I was not able to look around in the first scene, but I managed to get to the next level just by moving.

Congrats!

This was really fun to play! I love the characters and your voice acting XD

Wow, really cool game!!!
I enjoyed the humor and the art style. Also enjoyed the stealth mechanic a lot but felt it got repetitive after a few levels. I eventually gave up on the third level after I managed to steal 100 crops but then got caught on my way to the gate. Anyway, had a lot of fun with this!

Nice! I liked the atmosphere, and the characters' voices are really really cool. Great work!

Great stealth game ! :smile: Reached the end but damn these big light circle are moving fast lol. I enjoyed playing it.

Here are 2 small issues I encountered :

* On webGL version I had a small issue where my camera were turning right alone without moving the mouse. Some people had the same issue on my game on webGL version as well. Maybe it is an Unity bug. :thinking:

* On Windows version, after reaching the end and going back to the main screen, the mouse wasn't shown up so I couldn't click on any button :sweat_smile:

Good job on this entry ! :tada:

A lovely, really funny game lol. Wish that visibility was a bit easier when hiding in the bushes but I can see how that might be part of the challenge, also would like to see the end goal as soon as I start the level, would make me more motivated to try again if I knew just how close I was and I could visualize my progress better. Definitely one of the more memorable games I've played this jam so far!

Lmao, what a fun entry!

I really liked the voice acting and storyline. Definitely fits the theme, no doubt about it.

The hand drawn graphics style works really well too!

The mechanics are fun as well, very classic stealth type game.

Really fun!! I usually don't really like stealth games, but this was actually a very fun entry!!

Really fun game, definitely a standout entry in terms of presentation. It's obvious you had a lot of fun working on this :D

Charming game. I liked the voice acting. The graphics feel surrealistic. I found the game a bit challenging however and didn't complete it...

Tappioca15 Jan 2023, 03:03

I really liked the voice acting and the art style! The game was decently fun but I'm awful at stealth games so I couldn't get very far into it.

So weird and funny, I love it! It triggers zelda memes flashbacks.

LDJam user 30074515 Jan 2023, 10:33

I love the stealth mode. Great work!

Wow. So much going on in your game. Love the audio in all regards, just splendid. The graphics is totally adequate :) A great take on the theme, indeed! When I got the arrow, I lol'd :D I, too, am pretty lame at stealth but your game forced me to play it again after my first arrow-death. Really a good job.
