Use of the limitation
The limitation took me on a journey from light to the north star: Polaris. Which made me think of Megadeth music and its antiwar message. The result: wargames, dark vs light.

I got 9/48. I got stuck at the level with three enemy units. The achievement screen is really cool, hope you dont mind if I copy it for power ups or skills menu in the future
I took heavy inspiration from the checklist in Kirby Air Ride. It’s the kind of system I’d love to see in more games, so please, go right on ahead!
Will I got nintendo lawers on my neck for that?
It’s not a Nintendo game, so it wouldn’t be their place to go after you. But I don’t expect HAL Laboratory to assert ownership over the achievement system either.
Interesting game! Sadly, I didn’t make past the 2nd encounter, always ending up defeated by the 2nd enemy, therefore I probably missed further content
There’s a couple solutions to that one. If you have spare MP, deploying a second unit should keep you safe. If not, just consider that you don’t want to begin your turn on the same colour as your opponent.
In just as weekend, managing to make an achievement system as well as a game with strategy was amazing! I enjoyed playing this, and I fully think if it were a mobile game, it would be something I could sink some time into!
I mean the game is playable on mobile
Well, sort of. The web version only saves your progress for the life of the tab, so playing on mobile isn’t ideal even if the controls are there. And making a bigger, more involved mobile version with a more touch-oriented control scheme sounds like a great idea, i’m 100% on board!
Cool 8bits style. I didn't know pico-8.
Excelent game! One of the best on this game jam! I really liked your keyboard too ;)
This is really cool! I don't see PICO-8 games very often in game jams.
Thanks! And the PICO-8 is so nice for prototyping in, 9/10 product would recommend
