About
Nokia 3310 Jam 4 Submission.
This game is about how lucky you are to inherit a ranch where you decide to breed horses.
The game has autosave.
1. Your virtual pets.
Buy new ones. Feed, clean, walk, train and rent.
2. Economic strategy
Buy, sell, earn!
3. Construction
Upgrade your ranch!
DISCLAIMER: Unfortunately, we have no time to fix the HTML5 build, it was broken. Maybe after the JAM we will fix it.
CONTROLS
It was superhard to make strategy in 12-keys-only restrictions. So, we have several mappings to play. But the screen always shows a button that must be pressed on the phone keypad.
Basic keys (on the phone):
* - enter/select
# - cancel/clear
1 - help (press if you see a icon on the screen to see help)
2 - up
4 - left
5 - enter/select
6 - right
8 - down
NumPad Mapping:
NumPad is mapped one-to-one (except swaped 2 and 8 because of another direction), and "*" mapped to Numpad "*" and Numpad "Enter" and "#" mapped to Numpad "-".
Keyboard Mapping:
"*" is mapped on "Enter" and "Space"
"#" is mapped on "Esc" and "Backspace"
There is text input in the game. The input is made similarly to the input on the 3310 - through multiple pressing of one key. To provide the ability to enter text for those who do not have a Numpad, we have mapped the buttons to 1-0 keys. And a "1" key is mapped to "F1".
Also, there is a F6 key, which toggles a "real LCD effect".
