Strain of the Gods
A downloadable awesomeness for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Many years ago, a race of ancient deities arose from a deep slumber. In their hunger for wealth and power they caused the demise of mankind. At the brink of a complete extinction, only a small village escaped the eyes of the gods, until now. Baring the legacy of mankind, it is up to you to aid the small mountain town of Javalon to please the celestial beings while slowly increasing its population. How long will you last before you too perish?

Theme: Sacrifices must be made
I decided to go for a minimalistic resource managing game with RTS elements. No fancy colors, no epic backgrounds, just another old school game. Programmed from scratch including custom A* pathfinding , event system and MOST importantly : my first attempt at procedural music :D.
POST JAM FIXES :
* Camera follow script, no longer required to hold down Left Control to follow around villagers
* Camera control by mouse is now enabled, plus sped up
* Fixed bug in earthquake event preventing camera movement
* Updated minimap to be more zoomed in, with a little more detail (and updated marker colors)

If the 'post jam' version is the better one, then why leave up the older-version downloads as-is without marking them as older versions?
I am leaving them up as is because LD voting is still ongoing :)
