How does your concept engage in the jam's themes?
An ancient wartime epic that focuses on a battle for resources such as Gold, Silver, and Diamonds. Constant war and conflict cause for civilizations to go through heavy climate change globally.
Use of Theme / Inspiration
I find the themes of the Climate Jam 2024 very intriguing. I feel it is very intriguing because my initial game: "Pyrite", is meant to serve as an example of what war does to the environment. I look to incorporate the use of environments and ecosystems as a crutch and an obstacle. The main games that inspired for this project are games like Sid Meier's: Civilization, Wargame, Europa Universalis, and more. I also took heavy inspiration from the Crusades and the Dark Ages within World History.

From the Climate Jam FAQ (here):
This is clearly using the original game's assets and code: https://c4boosekiller.itch.io/pyrite which says it was first published in November 2023.
Also you haven't provided any of the materials the ideation sprint calls for..
Your prototype is a lot further along that I would have thought it would be at this stage! That being said, I really wish there was a tutorial or more clear instructions for what to do and how to control the guys. I think that you have a very solid base, and with a bit of polish on the UI and UX design, you'll be set for the next few weeks!
I'm amazed that you already have a prototype, but I wasn't quite sure what your plan is for the game. You didn't really go into your production plan or mechanics. I also wasn't really sure what I was supposed to do when I ran the game.
