[WIP] A Game About Crop Circles

Community Showcases

Hey there

Me and my roommate are working on this game about kids creating crop circles in a wheat field. This is our first attempt to create something in Unity and we thought we should get it out there as early as possible. In this game your goal is to create crop circles according to a rubric. You are shown the shape before the round begins and it stays in the upper hand corner for reference. You can move around in the field of wheat with standard WASD controls. By clicking with the mouse you knock down the wheat. At the end of each round your crop circles are evaluated. If they are close enough they pass on to the next round with a more complex shape you must recreate. The game tests your spacial awareness under a time constraint.

The video below shows a very early version of what we are working on. We have the wheat falling down very basic HUD elements. We still do not have a name for it but if you can think of of feel free to share.

Thanks

Nice - good little concept, could quite easily become something that is simple and addictive!

Do you have a webplayer version? Definitely think you could get some interest with this!

Here is an update. Damn Kids Alpha 1. Check out the game. We only have a few levels in and are working to make the game a bit easier.

Interesting and different, though.

This is a really unique idea for a game. :slight_smile:

You could make the game easier by making some landmarks at the center of some of the edges. It’s easy enough to tell which corner is which by referencing the map but it’s a lot more difficult to tell when you’ve hit the middle and need to start turning (I the first level anyway, I never got past the first level).

Really cool! How did you make the corn?
