Homesteader

Assembled from memory over the span of just under 30 hours, this sandpit toy was an attempt to rebuild a series of systems demonstrations and implementations following the discovery that the original versions had been mysteriously and frustratingly lost or perhaps destroyed.  

This systems demo contains buildable structures, harvestable materials, a radial menu, a "rideable horse" named George, a cart to send to market, and a day/night cycle with a synchronised in-game clock and the ability to rest for time increments. 

Game Awards Trailer Description: In this thousand hour life sim, you play as a homesteader in the wild American west, building upon your own plot of land deep in the wilderness. Craft, expand and profit your way through each day until you've built unimaginable wealth.
