Charming Hell

"Charming Hell" is my contribution to the 3 days long Melon Jam 2023.

Theme:  CHARM

Story:

The world is populated and full. As a landlord it is pretty hard to find affordable land to buy. So you bought the cheapest land you could find. Now you just need people to live here so that you are able to earn money. Unfortunately, the land you bought is right next to a very very active volcano, so fire and lavastreams are pretty common. But hey, as long as the people are paying you and the money is flowing that should be alright, shouldn't it?

Your quest is to raise the CHARM of the landscape so that people are willing to live here while natural disasters are destroying the land. Climate change is kicking in pretty badly so the disasters are getting worse over time. 

Your goal is to earn as much money as possible until the land is completely destroyed.

Mechanics:

• You lose if all buildings are destroyed
  
• The amount of gold you have is your score
• villagers give you gold
• Charm increases the maximum number of villagers you can have
  
• Buildings cost gold and increase villagers and/or charm (hover over buidling for detailed information)
• Natural disasters increases over time

Controlls:

•  left mouse click to select and place buildings
•  right mouse click to cancel current selection
• hover over building to get more info
• esc to pause (you can surrender here)
• click "?" button for help
