You'll need 3d6 plus some way to track your total Energy (currency/score), plus a few different types of objects that are easy to differentiate, preferably cubes. But items like tokens, coins, meeples, etc also work:

15 Energy Cubes (I used white cubes)
8 Damage Cubes (I used yellow cubes)
6 Status Trackers (I used green cubes)

About the Game

As the captain of the spaceship Illumination, your mission is to find Sleeping Planets —planets with dead civilizations— and recover their relics, stories, and histories. Your archival and studies allow them to live on throughout the galaxy.

Nearing a Sleeping Planet, your ship hits an asteroid, barely making it to the planet’s orbit. To repair your ship, you’ll have to scrap what you discover rather than save it. Their shadows will slumber forever, but you’ll survive...

Each round you'll roll and damage a square, then roll to work and salvage what you can. After each round, you'll extract energy that you can use to upgrade your extractor, build Energy Cells to help you escape, and bank your remaining Energy.

You can't possibly lose, but you can win faster or slower! Winning faster requires a balance of luck and skill. Good luck :D

Trijam 267: Dig It Up!

This game was created for Trijam 267. The theme was "Dig It Up," which couldn't be a more Beth theme if I tried, so despite being busy as heck I took some time to make a game for it.

Trijam games are supposed to be made in 3 hours (not including ideation, concepts, etc) but I took 6. Whoops! Oh well, maybe next time!
