I could not figure out what "assign" does. I could select people and kill them. That was the complete functionality of the game for me. Wasn't sure if it was finished or not. Maybe more instructions as to what your goal is would be helpful.

I really like the camera movement in this, very smooth. I had a bit of trouble understanding what my goal is, though. It seemed like all I had to do was sacrifice all the villagers?

@erebus The assign button's functionally is not fully implemented I added it in last minute, all it does right now is allow you to move the selected person around manually. Its was gonna allow you to assign the selected person to do different tasks such as(repair houses, kill each other, reproduce etc.), but sadly i didn't have time to implement that. There is no actual "goal" as the game stands right now, but I might eventually add a goal in the future.

@jeplmr I'm glad you like the camera movement, I spent about 2 hours trying to get it to work the way I wanted to and I'm still not completely happy with it. There is not really a "goal" as the game stands right now, I had a lot more i wanted to add but sadly I didn't have enough time to implement.

While the game seems to have been a bit out of scope for the short timeframe it reminded me a bit of those god Sims, like Black & White :D Could need some more explanation on what you were supposed to do (except randomly killing people). Also most NPCs tended to flock towards the north cliff in the progressed game. The rage of Beelzebub would not hit them, because of the trees (or roofs) protecting them.^^

I totally understand that, @jgugino. Nice work!

@zugai89 Yeah, I was definitely bite off more than I can chew for the amount of time I had. There was alot more that I wanted to add that would have given you more of a goal and given NPCs more of a purpose, but sadly i didn't have enough time. Yeah, the NPCs are kinda dumb as of right now I was having a lot of issues trying to get their AI to work how I wanted to. I planned on making Beelzebub's rage destroy/damage the houses and then you would have to assign someone to go fix it. But I didn't get to add that it, maybe ill work on this somemore and release a more finished build.

I immediately sacrificed all the villagers as per Our Dark Lord's wishes, but his anger continued to rise. Is no sacrifice great enough for His Infernal Majesty Beelzebub?
