Regenerate

Hello, this is my submission for the Regenerate Game Jam.  This game is about finding the balance between the number of people you have and the crops you plant, while planning ahead for possible invasions.

For this jam i was going to use a custom-made engine, but I couldn't get my ScreenPointToRay equivalent working, which, is pretty necessary for the top-down style of games.

the engine(doesnt work) 

If you rate my game and leave a comment I'll try do the same for you!

Controls

tl;dr There is a "?" button in game(just above the time system in the bottom left corner) which tells you all the controls with labels, which may be easier to understand, you should still read the mechanics section though.

shift + left click: "pan" camera

left click: Use selected tool

Menus

Top-Left: Tool menu, click to select a tool, tools -in order from top to bottom are Plant, Fight and Harvest.

Bottom-Left: Time controls, pause, speed up time and skip entire seasons!

Bottom-Right: Current time

Top-Right: Current stats, click the "person" icon to stop people reproducing. NOTE that clicking the icon is necessary in the first stages of the game, you cannot survive until your first harvest without it.

Mechanics

Loose game-loop

Winter/Spring -Plant crops

Summer -Harvest crops  and stockpile for winter.

Combat

Over time, squares become "conquered", you cannot plant or harvest on these squares, you can retake them while losing 0-5 people per square, so its best to deal with them quickly -be wary when you skip, because it takes time for the red squares to appear after you finish.

Credits

I made this game myself in the allotted time period, I used Unity as the engine, but I did use a royalty-free music track titled:

"Energizing" by Kevin MacLeod which may be found here(towards bottom of list)
