how do i zoom in and out.  its really close.  if there is no option to do should i just adjust the resolution?

Im trying to play the windows version on a windows 7 computer, but it keeps saying this version wont work with my pc and to contact the creator, but Idk what to do beyond extracting the files and running the application, is it just not meant for my inferior nividia?

oh yeah, its a windows 7 computer running windows 10 and before it tells me it cant run it it tells me this the first time

"Windows protected your PC
Windows Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.

Right click the Exe/shortcut and press: run as admin.

This wil probably fix the problem.

nice idea and all but for some reason i have trouble with moving my villagers. soldiers move fine for some reason

Interesting. What platform are you running on?

i am running it on windows 10. when i play the game i can right click but it doesn't always work. the flag just goes away almost instantly. sometimes when they go to the location but they don't collect the wood or stone. building works fine too.

oh it works fine the next day for some reason. still can't mine some of the rocks and cut some of the trees but i can survive multiple nights right now. maybe a simple computer restart did the trick?

It could have been an issue with the user interface not being handled properly in Windows.

I'm having this problem right now as well. I can move my soldier but not the villagers. They can't move or harvest trees/stone. The flag just flashes and disappears.

Very simple and hard as fuck

Just picked up the game, looks fun.  Just wondering if there might be a Linux build of it by chance? 


Thanks!

Hey, we made a Linux build and tried it, but the engine had major issues handling the UI. We made an effort to track down the issue, but it somehow seems to be independent of our UI code, and is rather an issue with the game engine.


It is possible that it will be fixed later, and then we'll make sure to upload a Linux build. Sorry for the inconvenience.

No worries, just thought I'd ask.  :) I'm sure I can make it run with WINE.


Thanks!

Tips on how to play the game (some of them are explained in the manual but I didnt' read it at first)
- The first thing to this game is to get used to the controls: RMB to build, you also need to get used to LMB to deselect
- This is stupidly obvious but took me a while to figure out: the guys with hats are Soldiers, they can't farm, they only fight
- Put soldiers in house to make create babies > new villagers;
- skeletons can spawn anywhere (including lit areas, so always have a few soldiers around. Early game you just need 2 at choke points, later you def need 3 or 4
- resources cap at 50, so you don't need that many trees and rocks and food
-  To get through the first night, I just made 4 fields, 2 house, 1 barrack . After than just keep on making soldiers, you never need more than 3, 4 farmers

- during first night, pan your camera to see where the skeleton king is. You have to do this bc you'll hit the wood cap pretty soon and need to spend wood to build bridge in that direction


The game gets interesting once you take 5~10mins getting used to the controls!

Yup! We purposefully left some stuff out of the manual for the players themselves to discover. We want trial & error to be a strong factor in how you approach playing. Good strategy guide right here. So I’m assuming you defeated King Skeletal?

lol I didn't, but now I just did bc you asked. I attacked during day, built a wall outside the dungeon to have a choke point, then a tunnel of soldiers; had 1 soldier run up to draw aggro, then let the King Skeletal run through the tunnel of soldiers

Well done!
