Greenwood War, the war of two different droplets. As a water droplet, you, Aquifer, have to fight off all the oil drops. Without you, the oil drops will snag all the water droplet’s golden pinecones, and will stop every water droplet from existence. It’s time to go, and get ready for actions.
To throw pinecones, you need to press B (X on laptop) and A (Z on laptop) and the arrow keys to move around. Good luck. You’ll need it.
NOTE: This is the alpha version, so none of it will be released. Everything IS planned out, we just need to create it. We have created Aquifer (the water drop you will be controlling) and the oil drops.

Cool idea! I would recommend having less saturated colors for the background, to make the foreground stand out a bit more, making the game easier to see.

Ok, I’ll be a little more specific about the controls.
The blue droplet is you, and the purple one is the oil drop, your enemy
These are the pinecones you will need to get

This pink counter shows the amount of pinecones you have

Alright, development has definitely sped up. We’re working on level one, Pale Hail Forest. The first chapter of the game, The Dark Era, will include two levels: Pail Hale Forest, set in Winterlock Forest, and Nitro Stun, set in Windbroken Plateau.

wait, wait: how did you get this picture?? The oil droplets are already programmed to move and jump around, so the chance of this picture getting captured is pretty low…

Here are a couple updates!
This is the older version of the game, as most of you know, using only a stat bar and the simple score block:
And below is the newer version, with a completely custom heads-up display, custom pinecone counter, death animations(not shown) and custom font:

Hey everyone just doing a quick poll (again because I made a pie chart by accident)
_Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/greenwood-war-official-topic/39132/19))_
Also, please be honest! I’m doing a before and after of the trailer release.

@not_a_lemon I updated the dialogue a bit. Would it be fine if I expose the dialogue or not?

Speaking of this level we just added the flashing lightning in the background, sound effects for it, and a screen shake. (I can’t really post a pic here because the lightning flashes for about 50 ms)
