Team Souris reporting in!
We’re a team of two, programmer and artist. We’ve made some jams before, but not as a team. We like multiplayer games the most, so the challenge will be to make a multiplayer game in less than two days!
(totally feasible!)

We’ve fleshed out all the mechanics in a Trello board, and we’re starting production now.
Tools and languages:
-PixiJS -IntelliJ IDEA -Some LUA -Photoshop -Trello
It's concept art / placeholder time!

We want all players to be cute little foxes, in a small world where two factions, the foxes and arctic foxes, are at war. Each faction will control a small segment of the spherical world, and will have to battle the other faction for control of all the segments.
This will need resources, and players will start as farmers. They'll have to gather enough food and ore to make soldiers, then improve them to annihilate the other team.
One player in each team will be elected the Fox Goddess, and will help their faction towards victory through almighty powers!
Placeholder elements so we have something nice to look at while programming and debugging:

We're refining the multiplayer features, but it's quite hard to track down bugs with a language you've never practiced!
Fighting works, picking up food works, we're now working on the territory control and different archetypes.
And this is the main building for each team, where you need to bring back food to make soldiers!
We made it! A massively multiplayer game in 72 hours!
You start as a little fox in one of the two teams, and you have to gather enough food for your team to produce soldiers.
To gather food, you must stay on your portion of the world to claim it for your team, and then you can pick the produced food just by standing over it. Bring back the food to the Townhall!
Click the Townhall to consume your team's resources to turn yourself into a better farmer, then a soldier, then a knight. Eventually, with all resources needed, you can turn into a Fox God, and punish the other team with all your mighty wrath!
Conquer all territories needed to claim the opponent team's Townhall, and your team wins.
