Thousandth Dawn

Thousandth Dawn is a text-based incremental game about a single day that never ends.

You wake in a meadow at 6:00 AM. A Guide tells you to chop some wood, and warns that night comes sooner than you think. Above you, the moon is wrong: too big and too close. At the end of the day it falls, and you wake in the meadow again.

Everything you carried is gone. But you remember where the caves are, which recipes work, who lives in town, and what killed you last time. Each loop you get a little further: a house before dark, then iron armor by noon, and eventually a boss defeated before lunch.

Coming next: Stage 3. Feedback in the comments is very welcome, especially on balance and pacing.
