A downloadable game for Windows

A game inspired by Minecraft (and probably Dwarf Fortress). The game is written in Python 3.8.15 and uses the curses library for the graphics. Very experimental.

In the current version, you can move around, harvest blocks, place blocks, and attack enemies. Enemies can attack and feature random movement. Worlds are randomly generated, but they are not infinite. The resources and buildings are randomly generated as well.

The modifiable blocks are:

  • ; - Flowers
  • T - Trees
  • M - Mountains
  • @ - Special
  • & - Enemy
  • W - Wall

The controls are as follows:

  • w, a, s, d - move the player
  • up, down, left, right - attack or deconstruct in the direction (or places a bridge block)
  • space - harvest the block you are standing on
  • b - places a wall block
  • p - pauses the background music
  • m - brings up the menu
