Click Start Game to start the game.

Population is a simple game. You click on pools of water, and then click on the npcs to give them water. If the NPC runs out of water it will die. If all npcs die it is game over.

Made for the Hyper Casual Jam


All Code, sound effects, music, and art made within a 24 hour period (with 8 hours of sleep included). 

Theme:
Conundrum!

I meet this theme by making players choose which npcs to give water to. They in effect are deciding on who needs to die for the game to continue.

Restriction
3 Colours!

I choose a three color art pallete for this game, though there are some shading using alpha levels.

Very solid concept and a good challenge!
Was a bit confussed at first when pressing the NPC's because their healthbars don't go up immediately.

Yeah, its because it is based off a timer.
