end_of_eden

---

Welcome to a world 500 years in the future, ravaged by climate change and nuclear wars. The remaining humans have become few and far between, replaced by mutated and plant-based creatures. In this gonzo-fantasy setting, you find yourself awakening from cryo sleep in an underground facility, long forgotten and alone. With all other cryosleep capsules broken, it's up to you to navigate this strange and dangerous world and uncover the secrets that led to your isolation...

Lua

Lua is used to define artifacts, cards, enemies and everything else that is dynamic in the game. This makes end_of_eden easily extendable. Modding support coming soon!

• The lua code tries to conform to the luarocks style guide.
• The luafun functional library is available by default to provide functions like map, filter, etc. which are very helpful. Check the luafun docs for more information.
