Sacred Harvest by Wake1st

[raw]
made by Wake1st for Ludum Dare 52 (JAM)

"You flock looks up to you, Prophet; do you have the strength to lead them?"

...is what I would say if the embedded game worked properly; its missing the music and fonts, and it's meant for a bigger screen. C'est la vie! There's a better version hosted on itch.io that I recommend playing.

Controls: Play by clicking anywhere (or using any key for most updates).

Uh... I did not realize how small the embedded document would be; lol.

Also, there's supposed to be music and special fonts... but I need to go to bed at this point.

Enjoy!

Really nice game, really. I would prefer it to be longer, but for a jam game is already very long. The vibe of your game is awesome, the sound effects, the fonts, everything create a beautiful environment where your game expands.
Well done!

As a fan of oldschool text games I really enjoyed your entry. It was an interesting experience, especially after playing all the farming and action games today haha.

Anyway, I enjoyed it, I really liked the sound effects which added A LOT of atmosphere to a simple text based game. The story was well written and intriguing.

Nice game! It was short but that made it easy to explore the different choices to see what the results were (my first playthrough turned out the best, though I haven't tried every combination so I'm not sure if there's one where everyone ends up happy). The sound effects and font give it a nice atmosphere.

technically, there's no "happy ending", just a first chapter which sets up some primary choices. I'd like to keep adding to it, and even make consequences for your choices. Currently, everything is hinted at in writing, but no mechanic responds to the choices you make.

The sounds design is awesome! The throat-chanting reminded me of sardakaurs from the new "Dune" adaptation. :) There's not much to be said about the story though. It's well written and it has a really unique atmosphere, but it serves only as a beggining of a larger tale. I explored all three available options and I felt satisfied, although I would love to play the full game with finished story.
