Co2pia by rolferm
Save the world from the impending doom of climate change in this new realtime 3D strategy game!
- Research technology!
- Make $$$!
- Be the hero we don't deserve!
How to play: - Use the mouse. (touch might work. I dont know). - Purchase technologies from the tech tree (TAB) - Purchase buildings from the menu. Shift click to set multiple buildings. - Avoid the sea level rising too far, killing everyone. - Win by earning 1,000,000. - TIP: Ecology level 2 -> Level 2 Trees! Plant lots of trees!
Build technologies - Coal : Produces electricity, but emits CO2 - Wind: Produces electricity, but only works some of the time - Solar: Produces electricity, but only some of the time. - Fusion: Produces electricity, but expensive. - Trees: Absorbs an instant amount of CO2. - Factories: Generates wealth, but emits CO2 also consumes electricity. - Cities: Generates wealth, but emits cO2 and consumes electricitu. - Carbon Capture: Pushes carbon back into the earth. Consumes lots of electricity.

After that it seemed that CO2 would saturate almost instantly and no mater what I did the water level rose too fast for me to do anything. I think it would have help to have a tutorial level to understand better what's expected from the player.
- I tried to grow trees
- I tried to make factories for profit
- I tries to go deeper into tech tree
I seems as very solid game, but I was not able to play it properly
If you give me some advice how to start, I'd try again, because game seems more complex and interesting than I was able to see
damn! I lost track of time :rofl: , finally figure it out!
I find these types of games very addictive, also always find very interesting what can be done with Three.js. Excellent job team!
Three.js is actually pretty amazing, just started using it for this ld, but everything works very well and if you have any knowledge of how rendering engines work it is pretty intuitive. The only problem was that we decided to write everything in JS, so there is definitely some code in there I never want to see again!
Some description of objects to build would help.
Very nice entry ! It took me some time to understand the concept of water rising, and to figure out how to use buildings.
It's interesting because it's really rare a management where you can loose everything even when you're mega-rich.
The controls and camera are more than correct, you could have put the mode "construct multiple building" by default without shift key (fortunately there was the shift key !)
Add some screenshots in your presentation to encourage testing the game.
Like other people said, sound would have been nice and maybe labels on the tech tree, but well done!
