It reminds me a bit of Notch's 'Minicraft' in an earlier LD. I love to punch trees and animals for resources ^_^\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The levels appear to be randomly \/ procedurally generated, which is very cool - I think I didn't find any wood the first two tries, but then again, I kept punching pigs, so I didn't really walk far... Exploring the map is fun either way :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I found a small error in your item menu - in the weapons tab, the &quot;iron sword&quot; is labelled &quot;iron pick&quot; in the menu :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The easy controls are positive for me, what I'd improve would be adding some sort of &quot;feedback&quot; if you are actually hitting a tile \/ entity.. Even making it blink would be sufficient. I sometimes seemed not to be able to fell a tree while standing really close (maybe not close enough, though)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, knowing how mining\/combat actually works would be great - do I just stand on a tile, and I hit all the tiles in a 3x3 radius upon clicking? (It seems like I killed a pig while felling a tree at the same time)"},{"author_name":"LCMW_Spud","author_uid":"111759","time":"Aug 29, 2016 @ 3:22pm","epoch":1472483820,"text":"Good to see another slick2D game :) It does run a bit slowly but that is to be expected from something with so much going on, great game"},{"author_name":"CptBubbles","author_uid":"18682","time":"Aug 29, 2016 @ 4:36pm","epoch":1472488260,"text":"Very cool game!

You are placed on a randomly generated island inhabited by pigs, cows and angry wolves that spawn and attack at night. \r\n\r\nYou require food to survive as your hunger will decrease over time. Enter the underworld via the portals to access iron and coal to upgrade tools and cook food. \r\n\r\nShelters can be created and placed to allow you to sleep through the night, store items and cook food.\r\n\r\nDefinitely ran out of time on this one so there's probably some bugs and I didn't get all the features in I wanted to so there isn't really an \"end game\". A score is generated as you play, increased by killing wolves and surviving each day. \r\n\r\n\r\nInstructions:\r\nWASD to move.\r\nLMB to perform actions.\r\n\r\nScroll Wheel\/Mouse click to select active inventory item.\r\n\r\nRight click with a food item active to eat the item.\r\n\r\nLeft click with a shelter in hand to place it. \r\n\r\nLeft click while facing a shelter to enter it.\r\n\r\nLeft click while facing a tile to attack it. \r\n\r\nLeft click to attack all mobs in a radius around you. \r\n\r\nRight click on an item slot to drop it. \r\n\r\nCOOKING\r\nEnter an advanced tent to access the cooking menu.\r\nRight click on an item slot to store it in the tent.\r\nClick on the item slot in the tent to add it to the furnace.\r\nLeft click on items in the furnace to remove them. \r\nIron Ore, Raw Pork and Raw Beef can be cooked.
