Progress Report

I’m really happy with how I am progressing on the jam. I took the theme as “You’ve only got one planet”, and I am making a Civilisation-inspired business sim game with elements of environmental catastrophe. The idea is that you are not just competing to make profit, but the more pollution, etc. makes the land get inundated more quickly, damages your ability to feed everyone, etc.

So far I have the main simulation working and I am happy with it. I’m particularly happy with how the graphics are turning out, because that’s definitely not my strong suit. (Pyxel Edit is awesome)

Today is going to be improving some of the mechanics, and getting competitor AI in place, plus making some sounds and *maybe* some music if I really have enough time.
