My first ever Ludum Dare entry.

We wanted to make a game where the user would build his own world. You start out in the forest and the idea was to build a city using only material that you could find, with the help of others (NPCs) living in the forest..

We soon realised that this would take way too long.

All we managed to do was:
You can collect things from the ground / from trees.
Map is randomly generated.
There's one NPC, with a quest (and reward).
It is possible to dig water canals. Dig twice in the same place to make a big enough hole for water to flow in it - connect the holes/ditches with water and water will flow in the ditches!

Controls:
Walk around with WASD.
Interact with objects and NPCs using "1".
Dig wholes in the ground using "2".
When you have completed the first quest you can use the axe with "3".

First press the action you want to use, then press one of the available tiles to use it at that tile. Axe has no animation when facing south.

Tip:
You can teleport to NPC and to water by pressing T. (target += 1%2)


Game made with the awesome game development library libGDX!
