A Dwarf Plot

The game

A mini fortress building game I've made to learn more about using pathfinding. Made as an entry for the Gamecodeur's GameJam 17.

It's inspired by the classic gameplay of Dwarf Fortress from Bay 12 Games which has inspired popular games such as RimWorld or Prison Architect.

Played with keyboard shortcuts and mouse drags and drops.
