Interesting...I thought at first that I would put an NPC down and the little villager guys would go out and get artifacts from over the hills. WebGL was slow for me, but I am on a laptop, so it might not be an issue for others.
As it stands, the game seems unfinished...oh, and I see in the description that that's exactly what it is. I hope you decide to work on this game or others in the future, since it seems like a very cool concept. Keep learning!

While the idea is cool, you did just use someone else's game idea.
Also, there just isn't much to do.
I'm actually looking at possibly getting MMORPG Tycoon 2 though, because it looks really cool. XD

It is a little bit plain, yes, but I thought the idea was pretty neat! If you could do something like make the worlds randomly generate, that would be way cool. Some more objects to place would be nice as well.
Good job on your jam entry, and good luck!

@CMLSC Yeah this project was mainly for me to learn about some parts of Unity I haven't touched yet, and also to try out a new ECS framework I've been working on. The final product here isn't really a game, but I think it's such a cool idea I had to try it.
I actually had this idea on my own before finding the existing project. Also, there's no such thing as a new idea anyway, so don't limit yourself to only ideas that you think no one has though of before.

Conception looks interesting, but there are so mush variants of future development.
MindExplosions from your idea, and it's great:
Should we write a texts for NPC? Levels Sharing? Or arrange enemies? Really, task of placing balanced monsters and loot is not easy.
Old players can leave game after closing all quests, but new players leave in unbavanced places?

@NinjaNic Thanks! I'm not sure why my game is showing up on Feedback Friends as a Jam entry. I actually entered it into the compo. On a second look, everyone's game seems to be getting marked as Jam instead of Compo. Oh well!

@Linver Oh yeah, there's ton of things you can do with this concept, and waaay too much to fit in a weekend game jam! This was a fun experiment for me though.
I like how the plauers move. WebGL worked great for me. I guess it never really got to the point where it's an actual game. There is no way of getting money, right?

@PetterBergmar Unfortunately I didn't have the time to get it to a state you could "play", really. Going in I knew this was too big of an idea for a weekend, but that's fine, it was a fun time!
