This is my entry for the Weekly Game Jam 97. The theme is "Strange Garden", and I think is a pretty strange take on the gardening game sim! Hope you enjoy!
You can download the game on itch.co here: s0lly.itch.io/gardeners-of-the-galaxy
You can also download the source code for the game from my GitHub here: github.com/s0lly/Gardeners-of-the-Galaxy
Game Premise:
You have been assigned to an off-world farm to provide food for the ever-growing, ever hungry population of your home planet.
You need to forage food, but be careful, as you have limited time and energy. If you fail in your mission, the Food Police will be knocking on your door (or dome, really).
You will start off with one type of crop. If you prove yourself to your overlords, they will provide more crop types which produce more food.
Caution is required however, as some crops don't just provide benefits...
And sleep often, as you move slower when you are more tired! If you stop moving, well, you stop gamin'!

Music by Eric Skiff, song "All of Us" for the intro scene and the following tunes for in game music:
"HHavok-intro"
"We're the Resistors"
"Arpanauts"
"Prologue"
