A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

F@RM? is a small experiment, where I tried to combine my unhealthy fondness towards farming sims with my fuzzy nostalgia for old MUDs. The project is written in Swift language, completely from scratch, TOML parsing aside.

There's a lot of things I wanted to implement, but didn't have enough time for, so for now you can only perform some basic stuff: move and look around, till and water the soil, plant and harvest stuff, buy and sell things, sleep, repeat.

Troubleshooting

F@ARM? uses ANSI colors, please make sure your terminal can display any ANSI colored text in a legible manner. Best played in a terminal with dark background.

If you see gibberish on startup like this:

[0;90m    _       _                   _
[0;90m   ('[0;93m<[0;90m     ('[0;93m<[0;90m                 [0;93m>[0;90m')
[0;90m   (^)     (^)                 (^)
[0;97m   |[0;93mm[0;97m/|   |\[0;93mm[0;97m|   |\/|   |\/|   |[0;93mm[0;97m/|   |\/|

That means your terminal ignores ANSI color sequences, and outputs them as plain text.
