Dev note: Hello Otto, Ludwig, Michael, & Co.!  Big fan :) 

As you may be able to tell, this is not a complete game. I’m a very busy person, I’m a member of a FIRST Tech Challenge Robotics team, a member of multiple clubs such as Theatre Tech, Yearbook, and more. Long story short, I’m busy. 

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that the purpose of the Ludwig Jam is to create new games for Ludwig to play in streams.

As such, rather than presenting you will a complete game, I’m presenting you with this concept of a game. If I had perhaps a week or two longer, I would be able to implement the art (which I already have created lol just needed like one or two more hours), the gamemodes I have temporarily disabled as they aren’t stable enough, and just overall a more fun and more developed game.

To see a more developed version of the game (with seeds and stuff like that) check it out here https://thesimg.github.io/astralis-alpha/

It is currently 5:57 ET and there are 3 minutes until deadline, so I’m going to keep this brief. Please feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @thesimg_ or on Discord at Sim#0465

Thank you! Graham/Sim
