I love some RTS. Took a minute to figure out things. It’s easier the second time around.

Actually impressive! Maybe the AI is too strong, or I’m just bad I didn’t try that much. The tutorial is much appreciated, however I couldn’t destroy the enemy’s core (explode but nothing happens) but I was able to construct with it :p

This reminds me of flash games from my childhood. I would easily play this game for like 20+ levels

Scaling Through Time

JumiSubmitted191 days ago

Holy moly, this is awesome. How something like this can be created in 4 days absolutely blows my mind. This is basically an entire game.

It also reminded me of the times when I used to play Empire Earth as a kid with my cousin. The upscaling even feels like the evolution in that game too! Thanks for reminding me of that! For a jam game, this is brilliant. Even if it wouldnt be a game jam game. STLL BRILLIANT!

PS: I also really love the personality of the radio guy in the tutorial. He's an ass, but still, haha.

The only criticism I have is that the own units sometimes feel a lot weaker. Two units of the same size could destroy eight of my eagles. Probably because the homing is slow compared to direct shots.

Besides that, this is a super cool game and a really unique idea. Good job!

What I Imagined When Playing Legos

You basically made an entire RTS in 4 days AND implemented the jam theme in a unique, interesting and creative way. Amazing job!

Submitted

Cosmo CornerDeveloper191 days ago

Thanks! ^^
I definitely feel like the theme isn't integrated as well as I woulda liked, besides a couple word choices, it's really just an RTS, the scaling is pretty inherent with the genre.
But I'm pretty proud of what I made, and I'm glad you enjoyed! ^^

Super glad you liked it! The visual design for the giant units is definitely something I'm super proud of, ate up a lot of my time xD

Cosmo CornerDeveloper191 days ago

Really glad you like it! Already got a pretty substantially improved post-jam version I'm gonna be posting once the jam rating is over, so if you like the game, stay tuned ^^

A pretty solid entry!
I discovered this the other day on a Twitch Stream, and I was sad to see that the streamer didn't gave enough attention to this game.
I played the tutorial and finished won entire match after it (the scale 4 units feels amazing), and I really appreciated it.
As a fellow game developer, I'm astonished to see how few ratings this game has! It's an RTS of a scale that feels impossible to built during a jam, so congratulations!
We were 4 seasoned people with many games on our shoulders and we created a small arcade game, and we were all amazed by the scale of your game.

TL;DR: congrats, I really liked Siege to Scale!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Definitely feel like the scope was a little too big, most people don't wanna sit down and play a whole-ass hour long RTS game while rating jam entries, so I probably took a hit there, but I'm pretty proud of what I came up with! ^^

This game is truly amazing for just 4 days! Really really cool. Was fun to play.
The tutorial was really helpful too!

Submitted

Cosmo CornerDeveloper191 days ago

Glad you liked it! The tutorial was definitely a little long, made it in the last few hours of the jam, so it's not super well designed, but I could tell that literally nobody would be able to play without it xD
