Very cool entry! This one really sinks its teeth in and ends up being surprisingly addictive. I think this is a cool idea that really has some legs. The tutorial really helps but as others have said it is a bit rough to start, but it does really click eventually. I really liked being able to upgrade your dice and increase the amount of them, it's almost like one of those idle cookie clicker type games but the currency is actually going toward gameplay. There was still some ambiguity for me by the end of my play session, like how much damage the home base can take, what the lightning bolt thing does besides creating more tanks, and the benefits of other tanks over shoot, but overall I feel like I got pretty effective at the game. When I realized I could click and drag to roll all the dice in one sweep I actually gasped that was so satisfying haha. Nice entry, good work!

The lightning bolt was Energy, and was used for Abilities. You hold Right Click on a Metal and it activates it. Some target a tile, and some activate right away. It's the most unintuitive control I have in the game, but since I wanted to stick to just the mouse, it was difficult to make a way to use the ability without a popup menu every time.
SHOT's just way too OP and the others are too underpowered right now. I'm currently changing them for a full build, so the issues should be fixed by then.
Thanks a ton for playing and enjoying! :V
