Lost at Sea Raft/Base Defense/Farm Game by guyinred97

[raw]
made by guyinred97 for LD 41 (COMPO)

In my game you use your fishing rod to collect supplies, plant crops, expand your raft, and fend off evil skeletons that want to destroy your farm. It is a mix of farm survival and base defense (but I didn't have time to add stuff like turrets)

Skeletons spawn on rafts during blood moons. (The screen will get really red) I will expand the game after the compo, because I didn't get everything I wanted to do done :D

Attack the skeletons with your fishing rod. Also, theres no visual indicator, but you scroll your mouse to select the items in your bottom of the inventory. You can only scroll through when the inventory is closed. Kinda like minecraft, but clunky. :/ Sorry if thats cryptic, ill upload a video maybe showing how to play.

Controls

Press E to open and close inventory. You can also press esc to exit inventory, and to go to the main menu. But if you go to the main menu, your progress is lost.

Left click with buildable objects to place them, and right click with them to destroy a block.

Right click with the Fishing rod to use it.

It was supposed to be more base defensy, but I didn't have timer. Sorry :D

Sound effects and music are from freesounds.org

Skeleton and Player Character are free from itch.io

Everything else is by me.

Sorry, its unfinished, but this is all i could get done :(

Maybe you could make instructions for the game, but a nice game and keep making games!

I managed to pick up some items by right clicking on them as they floated by and cleared the first mission but couldn't seem to do anything else. :(

You have to equip the fishing rod in the highlighted slots and use your mouse to scroll through to you activate. Only scroll when the inventory is closed. Kinda like minecraft. :D Im sorry, i didnt have enough time to fix all the user interface and stuff, sorry :id: Ill upload a video maybe showing how to play :/ Sorry, Ive only been coding for like 4 and a halfish months now :D

@MCRewind Im sorry its low fps on your computer, Im not really sure why it would do that :/

@herman-chau If you put the planks and net in your heighlighted slots in your inventory, and then close the inventory, and scroll with your mouse until it will show that you can start placing the planks on the water to expand your base. Sorry, all the mechanics arent fully fleshed out :/

Did not manage to equip any item in what I assume are the highlighted spots :( I am happy to revisit this if you tell me how/fix it.
