Grow your humble business by selling backpacks of items to anthropomorphic customers!
Click the mouse to interact with buttons, pick up and set down backpacks, or buy upgrades. Click Next Day when you are ready to gather items and sell to customers.
- The contents of each backpack are displayed underneath it.
- To sell a backpack's contents, move it underneath a compatible customer and click Next Day in the bottom-right corner.
- New customers arrive daily, so waiting a couple of days for a bigger sale may be more rewarding.
Packrat was created with the Godot engine in 3 weeks and includes original code, sound, and art.
The full team included:
- @doctor-zeus - lead designer, programmer, animator
- @nbumgardner - designer, programmer, composer
- Tom Bumgardner - artist; drew all backgrounds, regions, items, and customers
The _Roboto_ font was created by Christian Robertson. Given its external source, please do not consider the font when rating our team's artistic work (the rest of which was made within the confines of the jam).
This Ludum Dare entry features original art, music, and gameplay, and we are welcome to all kinds of feedback, especially related to how fun Packrat is to play!
You can also check out the open-source code on GitHub.
