Defence, then counterattack

Sacred Hay has brought prosperity to Earth’s farmers, but its alien owners want it back. The concept uses an isometric view and a comic conflict between peasants and aliens.

What the document explores

Levels alternate between defending hay against enemy waves and sending farmers through portals to retrieve alien technology. An alien must carry stolen hay back to its portal before the player loses the associated life point, leaving an opportunity to recover it.

The document introduces the universe, the two-phase level structure, waves and progression. Android, iOS and PC are proposed platforms for the concept, not available releases.
