Great start to an auto battler. I think it would be cool to see different weapons for your gladiators. It would add a lot of complexity with probably lowish effort!

Thanks! I’m still working on the game and have a ton planned for it for the future. Different weapons and armor are one of the things on the list 😁

My in-browser playing cut off the tactical part at first, so I almost gave it a low rating. Then I tried it fullscreen and could rearrange the soldiers. :)
Promising start to a game, I could see you taking this in some fun directions.

Something weird happened with the build, but yeah fullscreen is the way to go.

Very promising, main mechanic is there but hoped you had more time for more features ^.^

Yeah I ran out of time and it’s missing a lot of what I originally envisioned like a screen to show what the stats are for each gladiator, permadeath for each owned gladiator, and the ability to buy new gladiators each round.

There is only one type of ennemy so it gets boring very quickly.

Neat concept, but I couldn't figure out how to view the gladiators stats, so the randomness didn't really affect my strategy of placing everyone on one side and watching as they all mass attack one guy.

I ran out of time and wasn’t able to add that but it was something. I had planned on being there

If you come back to it I'd be interested in checking it out. Loved the graphics and it seemed a pretty cool idea.

thanks! I’m debating on whether I want to continue it, it definitely has some potential if I build a few more core items.

I Like the concept behind this autobattler, but there really isn't any single player option besides controlling both sides.
