There is no objective, this is a sandbox game!

White square is the player.
Top left shows your inventory, center is your health.
The off-white squares are sheep. Pink are pigs, brown-ish are cows. Aqua-green squares are zombies.

Use W, A, S, D to walk.
Up, down, left, right to change direction.
1 through + to choose an item in your inventory.
Space to interact/place an item.

Note: wool on top of wood makes a bed, interacting with a bed allows you to sleep.
Harvesting 3 wheat and placing the blocks next to eachother 3 in a row produces bread.
Things may seem to disappear, but it's probably because you're in a hole or water.

It isn't clear at all what you are supposed to do, and what color what thing is. You can't play a game properly if you don't know what you're supposed to do. So make sure the player is always aware about his objective.

Hmm, this game sometimes will refuse to take any input from me.

@caranha: Yeah, for some reason it does that, mostly at startup.

Looked interesting, but your game would not take input beyond the start screen (Mac 10.7)

I couldn't play this game, because it wouldn't take any input. I tried making sure the game window had focus, still no dice. I'm on Windows XP.

This is done in Java, so why not offer an applet or webstart version? Assuming you fix the input bug, more people would be willing to play those versions. I offer free Java hosting at http://StaticVoidGames.com. Might be worth checking out.
