A project I had intend to make for:

Tavern Game Jam - Winter '23

but admittedly ran out of time for. Still, I am happy with the concept and gameplay loop of the game, though simplistic, so I figured I'd get it out there for people to try anyway.

Time is of the essence. Your break is on the line, and a mere minute won't suffice. Use the sandpits around to fill the hourglass back up, or build sandcastles to prevent your boss' drones from reducing your already short break. Aim to get as long a break as you can.

Keyboard and Mouse required.

All assets are found in the base engine for Unreal Engine 5.2

Hold the Left Mouse Button to move, and use Space to jump.

Hold E in sand pits to add sand, or press E around the hourglass to add time, or the floor to create a sandcastle.

Press ESC to quit the game.
