Fractura
A downloadable game
Basic Controls
W/A/S/D: Movement.
Space: Jump.
Mouse: Aim (The character looks and the arm points to the cursor).
Left Button (Hold): Mine blocks (if you have a pickaxe/tool and are nearby).
Left Button (Click): Attack (if you are far from blocks or holding a weapon).
Right Button (Hold): Build/Place the selected block or wall in the Hotbar.
Mouse Scroll (or 1-5): Change item in the Hotbar.
E: Interact (Statue Shop).
ESC: Open/Close Inventory and Pause.
Survival and Combat
Day/Night Cycle: The game has a 4-minute cycle (configurable).
Day: Safe. Time to explore, collect resources, and build.
Night: Zombies spawn far away and come hunting you. Each passing day, they become 7% more resistant and 3% stronger.
Death: If your life reaches 0, the scene resets and you lose unsaved progress (currently Roguelike, you lose everything).
Mining and Construction
Collecting: Break trees to get wood and dig for earth/stone.
Light: Caves are dark! Use Torches to illuminate. Light prevents you from getting lost, but be careful: monsters can appear in total darkness.
Building:
Blocks (Front): Unsure? Use to make house walls or bridges.
Walls (Back): No implications. Use to close the back of your house to make it cozy.
Support Rules: Some items (like Torches) need a solid block underneath or behind them to be placed.
You don't just level up by killing monsters. The game uses a "Learn by Doing" system:
Running/Jumping: Increases Dexterity (Movement and Jump Speed).
Mining/Hitting: Increases Strength (Physical Damage).
Taking Damage/Resisting: Increases Constitution (Maximum Health and Stamina).
Luck: Increases Mana and Critical Hit Chance (still under development).
When the XP bar fills:
You gain +1 to all stats.
You gain a +2 BONUS to the stat you used most at that level (e.g., if you mined a lot, you gain extra strength).
The Statue Shop: In the center of the map there is an Ancient Statue.
Press 'E' near it to open the Shop.
Sell: Sell your surplus blocks (dirt, stone) to earn money.
Buy: Every dawn, the statue offers 6 random items.
The items become more expensive and stronger as your level increases. Buy better equipment to keep up with the growing zombie population!
Starter Guide
First Day: Cut wood immediately and dig a hole in the ground or build a simple house before dark.
Economy: Sell excess dirt. Use the money to buy a better sword from the statue as soon as possible.
Exploration: Dig deep to find ores, but bring plenty of torches. If the torch goes out (visual), you may be in danger.
