Currents Of War

The Kingdom of Roevia was once known as a land of peace – until the Great Invasion. They are now faced with monsters from the Deep! Many great heroes rise to the occasion, ready to hold the hordes back from the capital or die trying!
You, however, just hope to keep the lights on while living in the City...

Every hero needs a good weapon, and you’re here to supply just that!

Trade goods with the heroes who visit your storefront, juggle gold & inventory, and hopefully earn enough money to pay the treatments for your sickly mother.

But be wary!
Each decision made can impact the outcome of the war, whether that be to end this once and for all, or to selfishly prolong the conflict…

- Drag items from your inventory to the Sell slot to equip the heroes and earn money
- Hold [Tab] to open the map to see the outcomes from the heroes battles, as the blue heroes take back control.
- As the survivors return, they'll force you to buy the items from them to refill your stock.
- There is an escape menu, but doesn't work when full screen in browser

Made as part of a month long collab game jam,
  `Indie Game Clinic COLLAB JAM '25`
Hosted by `Indie Game Clinic`
Theme - "You are not the main character"

The idea of the jam was to 'do something new, learn!' and to not rely on AI to help in our creations.
Each of us did something new to learn on this project, free of generative ai, so ... success!!

But due to some misleading direction in the beginning of the month,
We branched off and made `Currents of War` in just 15 days!
