How to play

Every time the countdown at the top of the screen runs out, a new wave of invaders will spawn and head for your king. Defend yourself by gathering resources and forming an army between the waves.

Following basic actions can be performed while in  mode.

Gather resourcesClick on forests to gather wood. 
Click on gold veins to gather gold. 
Command units

   
Drag an area with left click to select your units. Once selected, right click to send them to the cursor's location. Left click again to cancel the selection.

Double clicking a unit will select all units of same type in proximity.

The building menu can be toggled by clicking the button in the bottom right corner. Buildings require wood . Following buildings can be constructed.


Lumberjacks need to be placed in the proximity of forests. They will periodically gather wood  for you.

Gold miners need to be placed in the proximity of gold veins. They will periodically gather gold  for you.
Warrior barracks use gold  to generate warrior units. 
Archer barracks use gold  to generate archer units. 
Walls can be used to block off enemies and slow their advance. Tip: Hold left mouse button while building for easier placement.

From the building menu there are also buttons for two further modes.


While in  mode, buildings can be upgraded with wood  by clicking on them. Each upgrade increases a building's performance. Right click exits this mode again.

While in  mode, buildings can be deleted by clicking on them. Building costs will not be refunded. Right click exits this mode again.

I’m working on a game for this year’s LowResJam and wanted to give you a heads-up. I’m planning to create a game focused on resource management and human evolution, inspired by the concept of your previous game. I just want to acknowledge that I’m using some of your ideas as a foundation for my project.

Your game is absolutely stunning and incredibly replayable—seriously, I love it! Thanks for the inspiration and for setting such a high standard

I'm happy that our game could give you some inspiration for this year's LowRez jam. I'm looking forward to playing your game once the jam has concluded! :)

Wooo! Had so much playing this! Great game!

wow

cool
