Cornscripted
You’ve “won” the labour lottery. Now farm, expand, and appease the Ministry’s endless quotas—or lose everything. Survive 100 days to escape the regime.
Cornscripted is a roguelite farming game. Run your combine harvester across the field to gather crops, fulfill orders to earn credits, purchase randomly drawn perks to upscale and specialize your production, and always be prepared to pay the Ministry collector who looms on the horizon.
I originally made this for the Ludum Dare 58 Jam. You can download the Jam version below

interesting game, shame there arent very good late game multipliers so there is basically no way to keep going after winning
On the contrary... I was forced to sell my level 1 common masonry and rock breaker due to taxes. Now the tax man is coming again next turn. While I have the money to pay, I bribed 4 times to show them what I could do, when they offered me 2 different masonry and rock breaker level 2 buffs. That gave me an idea... Do you think the ministry will be pleased with my progress on day 119? I just want to feed my people. (119 million dollars/ ruples... and a tractor bigger than the screen)
Picture:they offered me 2 different masonry and rock breaker level 2 buffs. When I do the spiffing brit thing:
absolute MADNESS, i am trapped in the vortex of this sisyfus ass (or however tf you spell that shit) game
a cool game but winning is very hard and losing is too sad :(
Is this game winnable?
I played in the browser and couldn't get over 83 days.
I love the game. I just want to know if I'm stupid or something lol
Yeah it requires luck though, I got synthcrop early in one run and it was a walk in the park after that
Thx; game is amazing!
The update makes it a gacha game to draw rock breaker lv.3 ASAP.
Love the update, especially the new endless mode! Chose to use the Synthcrops to beat the game.
I really enjoyed it! I would have loved to keep going and growing my fields. Maybe an option to stay and feed the starving masses? 😏
great game too bad I SUCK at long term planing
bribe 1 time.
make enough to bribe again with profit.
never pay taxes after the first time.
The player character is so rich that he must be an enemy of the people. The ending should have his family executed.
This is what I thought after I got to making $20 million per day.(sell your level 1s each time before you refresh the shop and get another tree you can buy).
It's day 99. My most powerful machine can sweep rows of my prosperous gigantic fields each day. Rocks crushing beneath the powerful engines. We can make tens of thousands of dollars in a single afternoon, while the tax man can be bribed to wait several days with just a pittance of the enormous fortune we make each day. Our ever-expanding fields yield more and more while we acquire neighbours and competitors.
Tell me, Wife. Why do we have to go?
Other families might starve, but you will never need to want anything anymore because your husband is a titan of agriculture now. Don't you see the wisdom of our Ministry that gifted the talented so that only them can be bountiful for the greater benefit of our nation?
why isn't there any option to stay in country? I really like this job I was assigned to
