Radiowaves

"Signal's strong tonight, survivors! This is the Apocalypse Radio and DJ YUNA is LIVE!" A post-apocalyptic rockstar radio DJ runs a trading post by day and hosts a show by night. Make a living, spread hope and survive with the beat!

Simple story-driven trading minigame with Visual Novel dialogues.

There are six types of goods: Food, water, fuel, electronics, scraps, guns.

Each Captain trades three random goods, for a fixed price (relative price shown by number of coins). Price applies both when you buy from them and when you sell to them. Prices reset each trade – so buy low from one Captain, sell high to the next. pricelist.png

Drag and drop crates between your warehouse and Captain's cargohold.

Plans!

As always, lots of plans and little time to do all.

We did indeed cut a lot of corners, so first and foremost we'll finish most glaring omissions: 1. Fix missing resource drain and upkeep cost 2. Add fail state when reaching below 0 cash 3. Add fail state when running out of food and fuel 4. Add endless survival-trade mode after finishing day 3.

Stay tuned!

That's really cool. Yuna's voice acting and some of the music reminded me of my all-time favorite game, Rockman Dash.

I did much better on my second playthrough, and the story is pretty good too.

A good game, a decent story. I was very pleasantly surprised when I heard the voice acting. Although it all ended rather abruptly, overall it was interesting :D

This game reminded me of Va-11 hall-A with the vibes! Although the ending seems rushed, I understand that it's hard to make enough additional content to maintain the feeling of suspense that this type of ending would work the best with. Especially when you consider the tight deadline that the game jam has! Good job overall, that was fun.

Looks like 3 games of different genre merged together... Not sure how to feel about that. Awkward

Клевые арты (как чиби, так и полноразмерные персонажи) и музыка, ещё хорошо бы добавить регулятор громкости. Core Gameplay четкий - ВН с трейдами - buy low, sell high как говорится. Но деньги тратить можно только на покупку самих товаров. Было бы прикольно подсветить некую денежную цель для игрока (вижу у вас в планах fail state, наверное самый сбалансированный вариант - иметь определенную сумму на конец дня, или типа того)
