### Game breaking BUG +++ Web export doesn't work +++ Download Windows or Mac ###

Alas! I did not finish this game in time. Work and family duties prevented me from working on the game more. Let's say it's an early prototype.

Story

Six men and women aboard a tugboat have crashed into the icy shores of an Arctic ice shelf. Can you survive the brutal conditions and send a distress signal before it’s too late?

Gameplay

It’s like Yahtzee: you roll dice up to three times per round, saving the ones you need. After the final roll, you spend your dice to gather resources or craft essential survival items. Each round represents one hour, and you have 5 daylight hours to prepare for the freezing night ahead.

When night falls, your crew will suffer damage if they haven’t foraged enough firewood or food. At dawn, a new day begins, offering another chance to make progress toward rescue.

The honest truth

The game is very bare bones. I did not have enough time to make all my ideas for the game come true. There is no real ending to it. The web version seems broken. I know the Mac versions works, the Windows one might, too. These are the things you can actually do:

  • roll dice by hitting "Roll" button
  • click rolled dice to collect them
  • spend combinations of dice on resources by clicking the wrecked tugboat
  • collect three of a kind to make fire with before collected firewood
  • witness the nightfall as your crew takes damage

What it could have been

Yahtzee-Inspired Gameplay: Roll up to three times per round, strategically saving and spending dice to achieve critical survival tasks. Masterful combinations like straights and full houses can unlock powerful bonuses or help overcome life-threatening obstacles.

Strategic Dice Mechanics: Build your dice pool to gather resources, craft shelter, and fend off threats. Will you risk it all for high-value rolls or play it safe for survival?

Dynamic Survival Challenges: Face ever-changing hazards like ice storms and predators. Each day is a race to prepare for the harsh nights.

Unlock Specialized Dice: Scout uncharted areas to unlock unique dice with powerful effects, like the Firestarter Die for warmth or the Double Value Die for massive resource boosts.
