Version 1 description (made in 72 hours)

Barely finished, probably lots of bugs in there still, but I like how it turned out.

The game is only playable in 1280x1280. Web version is on itch.io: https://savorytoast.itch.io/hasteland

The game has no tutorial, so here are some instructions: - There is no player, everything is mouse controlled - Click on tiles to perform activities - Initially, you have 2 resources: wood and food - Each unit of time, you consume some amount of food (automatically) - In winter, you use wood as fuel to keep warm (automatically) - Click on tree tile to chop it down, which gives you both resources - Every winter get an upgrade or unlock a new activity - On year 6 you unlock farming (two new resources, water and wheat) - Click on grass tile to make it into farmland - Click on farmland tile to plant seeds (you need 1 water to do this) - Click on water tile to collect water - Crops grow 10 seconds, click on fully grown tile to harvest, which gives you wheat - On year 8, a windmill is placed on one of the tiles - Click on windmill tile to transform all wheat you have into food - After year 10, there are no more events, you can continue playing indefinitely

I tried to make an interesting progression to the game (as in all clicker games) but looking back I can see why it could be overwhelming for a new player.

All in all, my main focus was to create a game that is unconventional and good-looking (and good-sounding) :)
