Did you work in a team?
I worked solo and had a blast!

Was the resolution a challenge?
UI was a tough challenge at this resolution (especially for a tactics game). I focused on the essential bits and cut the fluff; hopefully it worked out.

What did you learn?
I'm trying to get better at finishing, so the jam is a great format for shipping!

I like this a lot. I think if you keep working on this it would be a great tactics game. The graphics in particular are very appealing to me.

The UI is having some serious issues but I know how hard it is to make proper UI for such a game in this resolution. It’s a solid start and sure worth polishinig and expanding post-jam. Some work in the art would add a lot to the game also, just a bit of movement or something that does not leave the user on a “static” screen.

I love turn based strategy games, so this one was quite enjoyable. Simple, but effective visual style and a solid base for a combat system. Would have really liked some more skill options maybe and some mood setting music. Also, there didn't seem to be a way to see your characters stats. But in was fun, great work!

Real diamond. This game is underrated. The number of reviews should be much more compared to how good game this is. Carefully developed and the end result is diamond. Reminds me of Heroes Might and Magic and Dos game King´s Bounty. I almost forgot mention the Areena game. Good job. -oneak

Nice to see another tactics-game submitted! For a two week jam this is a great solo-project. I like that you've implemented a currency system, and the UI and sound-design is great!

I with there was soundtrack tho! There are lots of aspiring game-composers out there, and lots of free-use music aswell.

Congratz on a great submission!

Not a bad tactics game, not bad at all. I like the zoomed combat view. Moving around corners seem to cost more movement points than I expected, good entry regardless!

Fun challenge, reminds me in good was of games like Advance Wars and X-COM UFO: Enemy Unknown. Very fun and stylish! Thought for improvement: some extra emphasis on the selection menu for which item is selected and where to move to explore more items to select.
