Show HN: I Built a Retro Survival RPG in Vanilla JavaScript

I'm working on the Survival Crafting RPG that you would have played on your Apple II back in the '80s. You can think of it as Valheim's gameplay crammed into the tile-based UI of the old Ultima games.

It has a procedurally-generated open world with towns and NPCs to talk to, all the resource gathering, mining, crafting stuff you'd expect in a modern survival game, and some good old fashioned dungeon crawling to boot.

I've been working on it off and on for the last several months. It's complete up through the Bronze Age (in Valheim terms). Let me know what you think!

I was born in 2000s and the game looks as old as my parents lol. Thank you for letting me experience my parents' childhood！

That's the plan. A game for all seven of us old enough to remember when games looked like this.
