A downloadable game

The year is 2147. Mankind has become... uh, how shall I put it... you'd better see for yourself! Casual action-strategy set in a distant dystopian future.

Post-jam update is out! Fixed some critical bugs, added accessibility settings and keep track of user score.


How to play:
Mouse: move
Escape: pause
The ultimate goal is to get the counter to zero while keeping Jruns alive and well-fed!

Level completion gives you a Star ending. If everyone alive, it's a 2-star victory. And making everyone alive & happy gives a best achievement in the game, a three-star victory! Keep them eating or they will turn into ghosts! If everyone turned into ghosts, you lose.

Tips:
Happy Jruns have lifespan increased.
Hungry Jruns need a specific food to get happy again.
Ghosts can be brought to life with special mystical food.
Ghosts in the mid game can be an advantage.
You have 3 steps delay at the start, use this time wisely!

Bugs spotted:

- When you click "left" on the level chooser, and the level is the first one, it shows an empty spot.

- You can press "Escape" on the Game finished screen and start the level again with a doubled music track.

Thank you! I'll make a post-jam update as soon as we are allowed to upload.

Edit: fixed, will wait now.

What a cute little game! At first, it was a bit unclear what to do, but once I figured it out, it became very funny and interesting.

I love the models and overall art style. Nicely done!

Can you please add some hints for further players to the description?

Good idea! I updated the description.

Thank you and good luck on the jam!
