I've seen a couple of other really good ones too. I will try out you r guys soon!

RTS game?! made In a week? No way! Just played and rated yours, keep up the amazing work. If you are down to detail how you implemented all the mechanics I'd be down to listen XD

Awesome, thank you! I did it in 5 days... It hasn't been an entirely sane or healthy 5 days. I have been eating, sleeping and drinking game development for those 5 days :D

haha, the days of insanity was worth it. Did you use any framework for the grid system, I've always wanted to try making a grid-based game in gd

Nope! It is a flat array with a simple formula for the index:

index = row * number_of_columns + col

And the array stores references to nodes of a custom class called "BuildObject" which inherits from Node2D. It's a neat way to store all of that information.

I will probably cover it on my YouTube channel eventually, I think it's a really interesting topic.
