I really dug the art style and aesthetic of things overall, and the gameplay loop of gather resources and defend the base was simple and straightforward! You also had toggles for sounds/music which was nice, and adding a volume slider would be huge in my opinion. I did feel a touch helpless at first which could've been just me, so I will say a small amount of tutorial would've been great. But overall the RTS style with researching and making different units through item combos was a nice implementation! Good stuff!
