Tabletop Builder

This is my entry for the GMTK 2021 Game Jam: Tabletop Builder!

This is the first game I've made totally from scratch with no game engine (I didn't write all the rendering code during the jam). I didn't quite manage to finish a proper "game", but I got something that runs and that you can spend a few minutes playing around in, and if that's not what a Game Jam entry is supposed to be I don't know what is (a proper game).

Because this game is not using any game engine there are bound to be platform/configuration specific bugs. If you find bugs/crashes I would really appreciate if you could send me your OS version, CPU model, GPU model and graphics driver version to [email protected].

You can move the camera with the WASD keys or pan using right or middle click with a mouse.

Use left click to both select a tile from the bottom 5 tiles and to place that tile at the correct place. Once that tile is placed you draw a new card from a deck. The deck starts with 300 cards and once you've placed them all you've "succeeded". Though the only real goal is to have a little fun.

To be able to place the tile in a specific slot there are some rules:

1. The tile needs to neighbor one other tile in a + pattern around the tile (no diagonals)
2. The tile need to match it's "type" with the placed tiles "type". You can't place tile so that a pond abruptly ends with some farmland.

When you have placed a tile you draw a new tile from the deck. 

If you have problems running with "GMTK2021.exe" shortcut file either try "start.bat" or go directly into the "bin/Release/net5.0/publish/" folder and run "GMTK2021.exe".
