In what way does your game fit the theme?
This fits the theme "stronger together" because must keep your nation from falling apart to rebellion while conquering all the territory on the board.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Pretty much. The music is from freesound.

Thanks :) it was a lot of work.
Visual is interesting, but I tried 3 times and 3 times loose. Didn't understand how to win at all.
Thanks for trying it out! Sorry, it was less intuitive. A lot of it ended up being coin flips so if you don't get a good start it's difficult to get back on top. The main goal is to conquer all the squares on the board.
I love how elegant this game is, it's insane how much gameplay you can draw from a 4x4 grid! I played it a handful of times and each playthrough brought about a new emergent twist. It's really easy to crumble in the span of just a couple of turns!
Other than the stellar gameplay, I found the character designs to be very quirky and fun, and the little battle effect is a really nice touch.
I hope you continue working on this post-jam, I think it would polish up very nicely!
Thanks :) Glad you liked it so much. I plan to expand it, I like strategy games in general and have a lot of other things I wanted to add and improve on.
I really liked the concept of the game! I thought it was unique and it fits the theme well. At the start I did have some trouble figuring out what to do, but eventually I was able to enjoy the game.
Thanks! Glad you were able to figure it out and enjoy it :)
I don't have time to write out a real review, but I did stream your game here:
Cool! Thanks! Thats actually probably better than a written review since it's more like a playtest. Great to see what you thought.
I like that you made your own boardgame! The game is fun to play, once I understood what was going on.
Thanks!
Really fun game! It seemed like a cool spin on Risk where unhappiness and rebellions factor in, I thought that part of the game was super creative and neat. I liked how simple the game design was and how easy it was to quickly understand what was going on. The only minor issue I had with this game was that I thought that the numbers on the tiles meant the amount of manpower each tile had, and then I figured out that wasn't the case and it was the player number, which was a little confusing at first. Other than that minuscule detail, great job! You seemed to have put a lot of thought and effort in, bravo!
Thanks for playing and for the feedback :) Interesting on the numbers. That was actually just there for debug purposes initially lol, but I left it in because I thought it made it easier to see what was going on, and then if anyone was color blind I thought it might help.
Ah, that makes sense.
Nice game one you understand what to do... losing territories to rebelions and having new oponents is a good idea! The only thing I think could be improved is the How to play. It took me a while to understand what was going on.
If you have time, have a look at my game:
