A downloadable game for Windows

Please read, important information!!! >_<

I have removed the Web build due to feedback that it was too unplayable, and therefore giving the game a bad rep. Sorry! The downloadable version is much more stable.

This version of the game was made in a little under a week :)

Addressing ambiguities in the tutorial:

- You can only equip a block and craft while in build mode

- You can only place and destroy blocks while in build mode

- The inventory must be closed to interact with terrain

- You can only move people about while in People Mode

- In the tutorial, there is a person inside the house above you. You can click on people through walls to claim/select them.

- To claim a person, one of your people must walk up to them

Cubie is a game about uniting people together, whom all of which are stranded on floating islands! Can you bridge across to other people? After all, we're stronger together!

This game was made for the Brackey's 2021 Game Jam under the theme Stronger Together. However I have decided that I will be continuing to work on the game, hencewhy the game is dubbed a 'Demo'.

I won't lie the tutorial kind of put me off a little but then when I jumped into the actual game and saw the really cool floating islands I immediately shifted. The UI and overall gameplay is rough but I think there is a really solid game in there and given it was made in a week I don't even mind that too much because this could really be a fun game. It's a really cool idea for a little colony management game and since you said you're going to continue working on it I'd like to point you to Forager if you haven't already heard of it but I think the idea of having more unique and high interest locations the further you travel from the starting point so that it encourages players to keep exploring and expanding is really cool and could be really nicely implemented in this in the future. I think you have a really good game here and I hope to see more of it in the future!

Thank you for the feedback, no I haven’t heard of that game, but I’ll definitely have a look at it, thank you for the suggestions. Yeah, I’m back working on the game again and my first plan of action is a complete UI overhaul, and hopefully making it simpler and easier to understand. I have a lot of plans for the game, it was quite ambitious given a week so hopefully months manage to get it on the right track. Thank you!
