Thanks for the interesting feedback! It was fun to read :) And you almost got it right. The characters (they’re supposed to be dwarves) actually have their own lore, which in some places aligns with what you wrote. We originally wanted them to be more interactive—talking to each other and changing expressions based on the player’s actions or the battlefield situation—but we ran out of time. So, we’ve pushed that idea to future updates after the game jam.
P.S. The green dwarf’s prototype is the commander from Deep Rock Galactic ;)
