Dev Notes
This is a simple drone dispatch game which was going to be more graphical but I was coding without a mouse while selling books at a convention so I peeled back to a text interface and I really like the vibe I got with it. It's not balanced but the game does have an end, how fast can you deliver the packages. I also finished logic to make sure it is always possible to finish the random deliveries with the drones generated.
All controls are with arrow keys + ctrl and some text commands.
Defo an idea I want to explore more in the future but not with a text interface. Still love the text ui vibe.
