Hey this really is a hidden gem! I really liked the graphics and overall aesthetic of the game, great work with that. It's amazing that the code and most of the assets are from scratch too, that must have taken a lot of work. The controls and the overall strategy was a little unclear in the beginning, it's different from most games so while I wouldn't call it unintuitive, some way to ease into it would have made it a better experience for me. Overall though this game is great, you should post it around it deserves more attention!
