Hi there! 🙋‍♀️ Our Ludum Praxi entry, The Uninvited Guest, is out now. And it's FREE through March 8th!

After falling overboard from your ship, you find yourself stranded on a desert island. You have food and water, so your focus turns to shelter and a raft to sail home on.
The Uninvited Guest is a roll-and-write hex-crawl game where you'll roll for events and spend your daily energy Moving, Exploring, Harvesting, and Building. All the while, your presence is damaging to the island. It rebels by destroying what you’ve built, blocking your path, and keeping valuable resources from you, constantly reminding you that you don't belong.
Can you balance the island's need for conservation and your need for its resources?

If you give it a play, we'd love it if you share your score(s) on the game's page! :D

great concept, did you think of this alone?

Beth and I  came up with it together.  We've been thinking of doing a roll-and-write for Ludum Dare for awhile now and as we were talking out different ideas for Ludum Praxi for trying to make one, I told Beth that some of her ideas sounded more fitting for a hex crawl so we combined the ideas and went from there.
