How does your game fit the theme?
This game uses RNG to decide what happens. You get to start the roll (On WebGL it caused gamebreaking issues, so I had to disable it there)

Really cool and fun game! Especially the artstyle! Really cool, good job!

Submitted

Really hard to read what's happening with everything overlapping. The switching between left click and right click is really unintuitive. I like the idea of the game and would be interested in see it further developed. I like the environment art a lot. Good job.

Submitted

Really needs a tutorial, I'm sure it's fun but I had no idea what to do! I know when actions were highlighted I could do those things with right click but I had no idea why I was rolling a dice and sometimes it felt like I couldn't do anything?

Submitted

A tutorial would definitely be nice. I was able to get units moving and doing things, but even then I was unsure of what the goal was. Nice idea though! Some finetuning on the controls and player feedback and you have a really nice game on your hands!

It feels a bit slow to make certain commands at times. Took me a while to fully grasp how to play. A pretty good idea overall though!

Submitted

The controls are a little cumbersome, and can certainly be improved upon. I seemed to have gotten a couple of seeds that didn't have any traps or enemies? Also, moving onto refrigerators seems to be broken. Still, the art for the game is really nice and the ideas present are certainly intriguing. With enough polish this could be a very impressive game!

I like the idea a lot, I think it could make a case for a standalone game! The only difficulty I had was getting used to the controls at first.

nice idea

Love the presentation and concept in theory! However, I did encounter a few bugs such as the dice not rolling even on the download version which made the game difficult to play. Regardless, I love the idea and enjoyed the parts of the game I could play - great job!

The game looks absolutely jaw-dropping and conveys a really nice vibe! Unfortunately I couldn’t get the command-window to work consistently so I can’t really play the game in an enjoyable way so I wont comment on that.

Still, great idea and presentation, well done!

Submitted

Needs clearer instructions (i had to try right clicking to figure it out). Art is really great and the concept is awesome though!

Submitted

Really needs a clearer tutorial, but the premise and gameplay really gave me that squicky bug feeling, so... mission accomplished! :D

Submitted

Overall a nice little game. The controls need a little to get used to. Keep at it dude.

Could be a good game derived from the explanation. But I'm having difficulties playing it.

I do have some controls guide on the page: "To control you roach army use your mouse and hover over any unit. Right click to open a commands window. To issue move or attack command first right click the unit and click on command then right click the target and finish the command.". If you need I can give additional help.

The idea is nice but maybe you should add a tutorial.

Submitted

Very confusing. Can't seem to get the cockroaches to do anything and the game's stuck asking me to roll the dice. A tutorial would be helpful. At least the art is pretty.

Developer (1 edit)

Honestly the cube mechanic was probably a mistake. You can try WebGL version. It does not have it. also regarding doing thing try right clicking. For movement and attacking first issue command on the unit then right click the target and finalize the command. As for tutorial, I have run out of time to make one.
