Harvest Soon - Post jam edition
About
Originally created for Ludum Dare 52 (theme - "Harvest")
Submission page here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/52/harvest-soon
Original game (with less features): https://rob6566.itch.io/harvest-soon-ludum-dare-52
High ScoresThe title screen shows high scores from all players. To support this, the game asks you for a display name at the start (apologies - this currently has to be entered every time you restart the game).
ControlsRequired
- Left Click - jump to tile.
Optional - camera movement
- Mouse Scroll - zoom camera in/out.
- Mouse right click + drag - move camera
- WASD / Arrows - use these to override the camera. This can be needed if you want to visit a tile that’s off screen.
UX / Quality of life
- Music and sound (all third party - credits below)
- Animations for gaining/losing sanity/blood/score
- Lethal actions are now highlighted red
- Splash screen cleanup
- Mouse scroll to zoom in/out, Mouse-right and drag to move camera
- Each snarky comment is only shown once
- "Restart" now starts a new game immediately (previously reset the game and took you to the title screen)
Fixes
- Pending poker hands paid out when you win/lose
- You now lose on reaching 0 blood (previously less than 0)
Balance
- Removed "complex mode" toggle. It's now part of the core game (and the primary way to score points)
- Blood distance movement cost now based on distance squared (previously just distance) (to make jumping around the map prohibitively expensive)
- Reduced map size from (17*17=289) to (11*11=121) (to make this more of a constaint on high scores)
- Score decrease per move now increments every 10 moves (previously 35) (to encourage quicker wins)
- Balanced Flushes/Straights/Set scoring to more closely reflect probabilities (mostly increasing scores for sets)
- 100 points awarded for winning
- Different set of high scores from jam edition
