A roguelike/TBS about getting a band of people across a post-apocalyptic wasteland to reach the haven of Wastrl. Mostly an experiment in using traditional wargame mechanics in more general TBS wargame-like setting.

I actually started on this concept last year too, using OCaml. But between lack of time and getting distracted by working on a general OCaml terminal output framework, I didn't get very far, so this year I am restarting in Python 3.

Done. I ran out of time for balance and full playtesting, but I did get in a lot of features and effects for explosions, fire, and smoke. There is a Linux binary, and it should run on other platforms if you start the Python 3 program manually.

Features:

  • Shoot nuclear missiles at rats.
  • Watch forests burn down.
  • Be trapped on a mountain by a quake mole.
