Story:

You’re a lonely Viking stranded on a Island at the edge of Midgard, and there’s no boat near to take you home. But through tedious work you’ve manage to create a place to Blót (A Blood sacrifice) to the gods, this will help keep you alive. After taking your knife and offering to Thor, he sent down two goats to keep you alive (and they respawn as long as you keep Thor happy), while your crops grow. Don’t forget to pay your respect to the other gods as well as they all keep you alive in different ways, and whatever you do, don’t go into the water.

The controls:

WASD: To move.

Left click: For collecting items and using the tools. (Also, to offer to sacrifice to the gods)

I: For inventory.

Escape: For pause menu.


What To Do:

You'll have to keep the gods happy by sacrificing blood to them, this is done in two different ways, one by using the knife to sacrifice your own blood, and two by killing one of the goats and using its blood.

You first need to plow the dirt  Dirt and then place down seeds on the plowed dirt. They are fully grown when they look like this Oat and are then ready for harvest with the sickle. After you've harvested the oats you'll be able to make bread out of it by going to the house besides the farmland and baking it. You are also able to cook the meat you get from the goat there

Thor: Will wither your crops.

Odin: Will make you unable to kill the goats.

Freyr: Will literally take life (hp) from you.

SeedsThe Seeds: Are the seeds used to sow the oat.
