Village:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The sun was nearly set.

Jaian and Picky continued to construct the shelter's defences, adding more spears in between the exsisting ones and lowered their angles so they would be more deadly to shorter foes. Franz continued to create more wooden spears to replace the ones being used in the construction of the shelter's defences and in the arming of the villagers.

The rest of the villagers fired hardened the exsisting spears to increase their combat effectivness.

Weapons:
 14x Wooden Spears
 5x Fire-hardened wooden spears

Tools:

 1x Hatchet
 1x Hammer
 1x Pickaxe
 1x Shovel

Construction Materials:
 1x Piles of sticks
 5x Pile of leaves
 25x Dry Bricks

Food:
 9x Large red berries
 3x Small red berries

Misc:
 1x Bird nest(with 2 eggs)

Population:

 5 Peasants
 1 Woodcutter
 1 Clayworker
 1 Fisherman
Total: 8

Night has come

Do this.  Make sure the sentries have the fire hardened spears.

>Create a schedule so everybody gets a full night's sleep, but the sleep is offset so there are always people awake.

Since there are eight of us, have two people sleep dusk to midnight, two people sleet midnight to dawn, to people sleep dawn to noon, and two people sleep noon to dusk.

i love this kind of games, and the artwork is just lovelly!!
have the most culinary inclined chromosian smash the berries together with the eggs into a paste, splat it on a large rock and bake it by the fire until the egg in the paste is cooked. distribute the meal evenly among everyone

have a couple of people sleep early while the others finish the spear wall

Thanks. It feels a bit cheated to me though because I reuse most of the assets instead of redrawing things, it does mean that I can update more often though and it doesn't kill me (and along with the small size of everything it hides how i can't draw to well).

Really I think your just being modest. That artstyle is simplistically beautiful.

I think the ones who are standing the graveyard shift should be alert, spears in hand, not crushing berries.

come on, the guys haven eaten in a day, and this isn't the graveyard shift, the sun has just set.
 though it would be careless to not leave a sentry or two, we have no real reason to think the night is any more dangerous that the day. do you propose the guys just stand around doing nothing for 6 turns?

I propose that the guys guard the sleeping chromosomians.  And Evil Lincoln specifically said "Try to survive the night."  What do you think is going to happen?

it'll be more fun if we're optimistic and unprepared, besides, surviving also involves being kept fed

Come on, since when is being undefended and unprepared fun?  Chances are, if we go all hippy and peace-loving and liberal, we're gonna die.  And we can have the Chromes make food in the morning, maybe even got some farming and fishing done.  Right now, survival and defense is what matters.
