The Spread by Lintfordpickle

[raw]
made by Lintfordpickle for LD 43 (COMPO)

Backstory:

The world is being overrun by some kind of zombie horde and its slowly eating its way through everything! Luckily for us they seem to be very stupid and are following the path of least resistance, flowing through the valleys like water. Once the valleys are full though, they'll come for us!

Win Conditions:

Fight the horde back to the edges of the map and finish them off

Lose Conditions:

You lose if your HQ is destroyed.

Hints:

  • Press F2 in the game to see some help screens

  • Buildings with people inside cannot be destroyed. Your people will continuously repair the building until they are dead. You can sacrifice some of your population this way, slowing down the horde in the lower regions to buy more time up top.

  • The HQ replenishes metal slowly over time.
  • Buildings require people to operate them. If there are no people within, they are useless!
  • to get more people, cannot your HQ to a city
  • cities can only replenish people if they have a food supply.
  • all military nodes require metal to shoot bullets.

Issues

Upon release there are some pretty game-breaking issues. + fixed camera cannot scroll to the lower-edge of the map. + fixed mines producing metals indefinitely + added 'R' key to reset the map + added 'Space' to centre the camera on your HQ + mortar and turret fixed (they now shoot)
