Goal


Survive as long as possible, kill the monster, plant the seeds, harvest them, and craft them.

How to play


At start, you have all types of seed, you'd better plant iron and powder first, make sure you can survive the first day, make a pistol and some bullets.

Next step, you need additional place to plant, you'll need plough, but to make them, you need lots of seeds and wheats, so plant what is lacking of.

Blindage can defence the enemy's attack, but not too much.

Grenade excels in damaging a group of enemies or damaging enemy at close.

You can press "?" to check up how to control.

Craft System


Pistol - 4 Irons

Bullet x4 - 1 Iron, 1 Powder

Blindage - 8 Irons

Bread - 4 Wheats

Plough - 2 Wheat seeds, 2 Iron seeds, 2 Powder seeds, 4 Wheats

Grenade - 1 Iron, 4 Powders

Took me some time to figure out the control, but the gameplay is very fun! When playing the game, I have goals in mind (want to craft certain items) and that helped me think about what seeds I want to plant and kept me engaged. (I wonder what happens if I used all my seeds when building plough, is there another way for me to get seeds besides harvesting?) I think this game has much potential and you can turn it into a longer project. Good job for achieving this in a weekend.

Quite confusing initially but seems very interesting, not being able to craft anything at first and having no idea what the black bar meant aside from preventing me from doing stuff made me treat whatever way I managed to accidentally bring up the crafting menu as something I shouldn't repeat making me not realize you could craft for a while.

Interesting idea, but took a while to find controls. At least write a tutorial)
also felt a bit slow at the start.

@coke you have description how to play, but you didn't write specific controls.

Fun game to play. Took me a while to figure out controls and mechanics and reading description didn't help much :smile: But it was a fun experience on its own! I love that you must grow your weapon! Also noticed cool little details like when you select pistol camera zooms out for better view. Good job!

It was hard to understand at first, but it was a fun game once I got the hang of it.

I lost because the enemy was behind the player and I didn't realize that was damaging me.

I would love to see this expanded with more enemy types and an increase in difficulty over time! Oh and maybe a use for all my extra seeds, because I AM INVINCIBLE :D

@cievers Thanks for the feedback! I'll pay more time on this project, and there'll be more types of enemies.

That is a very cool concept, it took a bit to really understand what was going on, but as soon i did it, i really enjoyed! Cool graphics and sounds ( i would make the monster phase a bit more quiet, it was veeeery loud). Overall , pretty good entry!

Also took me a bit to get started, but once you get into it it's a very neat little survival game open to unlimited ways to expand it. The game-play loop was fun and I can imagine you could fiddle a lot with it, to add more. Growing some special plants that make later bridges to another area to defend or whatever, or have different plants eventually give diseases to each other if they're next to each other like irl, combo-wombos.
The graphics were simple, but nice and fit together with the overall theme, music got a bit repetitive over time, but the sound itself is really nice!

Solid & nice work!

@svenerik
Growing some special plants to do some special things seems like a great idea. Diseases sounds good, but I think players should focus on how to defence the enemy, I'll think about them.
I don't have much time in music, sorry for it.
Thanks for the feedback, erik!

Took me a while to figure out what to do, and the background audio was slightly tedious, but I can tell you put a lot of effort into your systems, so good job on that. Solid entry :)

Great game. The gameplay loop is fun and engaging and allows for future content. The music goes well with the game.
My only problem with the game is the control scheme, i think you could collapse multiple button onto the same one.

Nice entry! good job!

I have to watch the video to figure out what to do buuut the game is really cool once you get it.

@pepnou Thanks for your feedback! The controls in the jam version now is a bit chaos, I'll try to simplify them in the future version

@reikan Thanks for the feedback! I'll make a tutorial inside the game in the future version.

Surprised by how much game content you made in such a short amount of time. I love the simplicity of the UI and how the item menu goes. And yes it's hardcore and a little to much for me, 一个生存建造游戏苦手。Great job anyway!
Cat Lab25 Jan 2023, 22:30
Seems like a simple concept at first glance but there's actually a lot of content here! Likewise took a while to figure it out but once you get the hang of it, it's great how much you can get out of the gameplay.
