BioRampage by juan

[raw]
made by juan for LD 42 (COMPO)

I used Unity, Blender, VSCode, Audacity,Reaper. I used on Linux for this one, and it worked like a charm!

About the game: the tropical forest is spreading like crazy! Use your gas powered vehicles to claim your territory back. Don't forget to plant some palm trees along the way, it's a great way to make money and expand your business.

Controls: arrows to move the camera around. Right and left click to give or remove cutting orders. Space to plant palm tree. Click on factory to upgrade or buy more vehicles.

Not the greatest game around, but I still feel like i've improved a ton sinced last year! Anyway, I hope you'll have some fun with this one

How did you make this? The source code is not there. Can you please upload the code?

I like the artstyle! I found it really hard to prevent the trees from quickly spreading over the entire map. Maybe I should have planted more palm trees than I did...

It might be nice to allow left-click-and-drag to scroll the screen, or at least have some buttons to click to scroll the screen, so you don't have to move your hand from the mouse or spacebar to the arrow keys.

Also, for me, the cutting orders don't highlight for trees on the pink spaces. (I'm on linux though, so things might be weird here.)

hey! Just replying quickly: the sources are coming.

I am uploading 2 folders: 1 is code only, the other is my full unity project and blend file.

The last one is quite heavy, so the upload is longer than what i've expected, sorry about that!

I think there is a very fun game idea in here, but this didn't quite get there.

The art style and the sound effects are pretty solid.

It quickly became difficult to manage the swarm of trucks, and more often then not they would ignore the box right next to them to drive to the other side of the map, so they felt like they became less effective as the map became more choked with trees. Maybe having them prefer to go to areas near them over areas further away would help with that?

It wasn't well explained that the palm trees give passive income, I assumed that I had to plant them and then harvest them at first.

Also, I still have no idea how the truck upgrade mechanic works, how to use it, or what it does.

this was kind of fun - but it needed more ramp up time - i felt overwhelmed by all the trees - thanks for making it
