Really good game! I like that slimes attack diagonally. Really makes you think before moving. Good job!

Nice little game and concept! one of the things i found difficult was just visual overload? there's a lot going on with detail in the screen and i almost found it a bit distracting between the enemies' and the player slimes.

I suck at puzzlers so maybe a few easy ones before it gets to difficult :D

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Playtesting for difficulty is something we really could have used just a little more time on hahah
And we originally had the player characters a different color for better readability but realized we had one too many colors and had to shuffle around at the last second!

Really scratches that advance wars itch. Great Job!

I really liked how all the units worked together. The UI was very well explained.

Sometimes I wanted the enemy's turn to speed up, and there were a few moments where the UX froze, but these are elements of polish that are best reserved for after the jam.

Very enjoyable entry! One of the highlights for me.

It was really well done, but I ran into a runtime error as soon as the salt flats started.

Developer

Crap, could you tell me what it said?

Submitted

Ahh.. I think it was something like..

Error in dist(e.x,e.y), tried to get index of nil e

It happened right after the title screen for salt flats, before the level loaded. Hope this helps :)

Developer

Thanks, I definitely know what that means….but I have no idea why it would happen there. Off to do more testing. I really appreciate you getting back to me though, this is really helpful :)

Nice!! First off, I gotta say that the sound effects are basically perfect. It made even moving a cursor around enjoyable :) The art was good, the level design was fun, what else could you want from a tactics game?

I love it. All of a sudden I’m having Advance Wars flashbacks. You did a great job of designing the strategy elements, the graphics are great, and the audio is very fitting. I thought I was killing it until the Dune golem hit me hard. I can see myself coming back to this one. Again great job!

Developer

Thanks! And to be honest, that Dune Golem gets me every time too XD
