Far Away: A New Home

Far Away: A New Home

In “Far Away: A New Home” you play a medieval war party, trying to conquer new lands, because your old home was getting too small for all the inhabitants. But beware there are other conquerors who try the same. You need to capture the castle of each land and hold it long enough and to be victorious. There is limited space after all...

Gameplay

The goal of this game is to capture the castle of the land and hold it for a certain amount of rounds. If you or the enemy hold the castle without the opponent attacking, the game is won. The opponent can try to capture the castle by attacking it.

This is a turn-based game. You and your enemy take your turns at the same time. Each turn you can take an action and then move (select move target on map by clicking on a tile - maximum move distance is 2 tiles) to end the turn. The actions you can take depend on the tile you are currently standing on.

The battles are also turn-based and mostly based on die rolls and several bonuses. There is a rock-paper-scissors-system in place (Spearman > Cavalry > Archer > Spearman), so the troop types get bonuses depending on who they fight against.

Ludum Dare Notes

This game is a jam submission for Ludum Dare 54 with the theme "Limited Space" and was made in the time of 72 hours. The game was developed using Godot and C#. The graphics are made by myself. Sadly I had not time to make sounds or music.

Currently only the Windows and the Mac builds (must be opened with Command + Rightclick and then Open) are tested. The Linux version is untested as I don't have a Linux machine at hand.
