About

# Sail for Nothing
This is a game made for Ludum Dare 45 -- "Start with Nothing".

## Controls

- WSAD: move

- Shift: use sail if you have it

- Q, E, Space: Select and play a song (not really fully implemented)

## Cheats

- F12: Restart the day

- F11: Reset the game and progress

- F10: Time warp to just before the festival starts

## Description

I attempted to remake an old LD game that I made called "Sail" -- with a changed focus on time rather than treasure exploration. The main idea was to steal the time cycle idea from Zelda: Majora's Mask, with a doomsday event forcing the player to "start with nothing" again every day. I thought it was a cool idea, but I think I was too ambitious with the variety of quests and mechanics, so I didn't end up finishing.

You can load this up and explore though, many of the quests should be doable. The ones involving music do not work well, and the festival at the end is unimplemented.
