Ende Gelände Sprint 3 Prototype - Climate jam 2025
It's beginning to look like a game!
Play as the German climate movement Ende Gelände - get to the coal mine and shut it down! The finished game will be out next week when the Climate Jam ends so stay tuned!
Feedback on gameplay and difficulty is welcome! I'm going to work on more art in the coming week to hopefully bring the flavor forward even more. Also I have a collaborator working on a soundtrack.

congrats I really love this game, it's pretty hard and I also like that about it xD it's cool to see the mechanics evolve over the game. i wonder, do you think there's still use for scatter once you get haystacks?
I don't know if you're looking for this kind of feedback so feel free to disregard but I found myself wishing I had one or two lone single agitators runners that I could use to taunt the guards into following them
i almost forgot the most important lol i wish there was a "retry" button because it happens a lot that i know my attempt is fucked but i have to wait and see everyone die before i get to try again.
Feedback is awesome, thanks!
Yeah, you're right that Scatter probably isn't very useful on the last three levels except sometimes to push my activists through the pathways. But that's mostly an issue with level design. If this would be expanded I guess there would be a bigger selection of levels where more mechanics get introduced, return and interact in interesting ways. I think I might settle for about this many levels as my "proof of concept" for the Game Jam, but yeah, definitely room to expand!
I think as you say the size and division of groups is also a key factor in level design and small groups would certainly be useful! I'd just have to make sure to adapt the levels so it wouldn't be too good. I'm glad you like the difficulty. I haven't fine tuned the "grading" of each level, how many activists need to get through etc. but it's good to know it's working decently.
And yes, the Retry button is coming, just didn't have tie before uploading today, sorry! :D
Thanks again!
