Welcome to Magiss: Food war, where you pick up stuff, throw it at animals and attempt to stay alive.
You can till the ground (press T)
Plant trees or wheat (press R, holding wheat seeds or tree seeds)
Chop trees(get near a tree and press G)
Harvest trees(get near a tree and press F)
To 'attack' press spacebar.
To get rid of stuff press shift (you won't be able to pick it back up)
====================
There is AUTO_AIM
====================
press Q and E to shift which animal you are aiming
press a number from 1-9 to look through your inventory
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
UPDATE 1:
graphical fixes:
-toolbar fixed (and mouse events)
you can now see and use your toolbar, which shows you your inventory, as well as
actions you can perform (till, plant, harvest, chop).
when you click on an inventory slot, you only select that slot. you'll need to press spacebar to throw that item.
- (auto-aim) you can now know which animal you are targeting
bugfixes: movement should be smoother, auto-aim should be nicer
newer games should work
-------------------------------
console stuff: type game.commonEvents.enableShaders() to have changing lights.
VERY IMPORTANT LEGAL STUFF
I'm using a bunch of open source, MIT-licensed software and
an art pack made by oryxLab(http://oryxdesignlab.com/)
I DID NOT MAKE the GRAPHICS and I do NOT HAVE THE PERMISSION TO SELL THEM, please pay the original authors like I did.
thanks

None of my attacks seemed to have any effect. Not sure if I wasn't close enough, or just needed to attack more.
And the controls had some glitches. For example, if I was holding both W and D and therefore moving up and to the right, and then I released W, I would continue moving diagonally, instead of heading directly to the right. This made it hard for me to feel like I was confidently in control of the avatar.
Maybe it's unclear to me what the goal and game dynamics are. Seems to have potential though. Good job!
@Andy Gainey: you had to select a slot from your inventory using one of the numbers on your keyboard, until you got the seeds. With the update, you can see your inventory.
You need to attack more. I fixed the movement, I think. diagonally movement is no longer bugged (hopefully)
I'd like to understand this.
The goal is simple: kill all animals or be killed. Use items like apples, seeds, etc.
I think I should have added a game over screen. Is it too late or am I allowed to add that? I'm not entirely sure, but it seems to be against the rules to do that type of thing.
