I love your pixel art! The characters look amazing! Would love to play this again once the sounds have been added as well! overall I really enjoyed it :)

I like turn based games so this one I really enjoyed. It could benefit from different walk distances based on class. It could improve the pacing a bit. But overall it's a great game. I couldn't hear the sound so I don't know if it's a problem on my end or the game just doesn't have any.

ULTRA BUGS FROM OUTER SPACE! With a name like that how could I not love it?! I love tactical games, and your presentation is lovely.

Great work!

fun to play, but it feels the progression is a bit slow

Strategy games are generally fun, but this one is a bit tedious. The controls are too complicated and the levels are too large and not very engaging. This slows down the game and makes it boring.

Nice entry! Really fun to play. Beautiful graphics! I just missed the sound effects and the music.

Good work!

This game has a very simple idea but very challenging and well executed. I like it!

How nice to stumble upon a turn-based game! I think that some music and sounds would have made the experience even better :) That and maybe some more clarity when it comes to the different roles of the party. I thought that the sniper would do a ton of damage, but instead, he did 1 dmg per shot which took me a while to realize. Not a necessity though! Overall, neat game :)

Quite fun, I made it farther than I thought I would :)

Cool game! Loved the graphics. Game was surprisingly difficult, especially since your past damage carries over to the new level. I think some sound would do wonders!

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you liked it. 

I left the sound for last and somehow ran out of time to do properly, so I decided to skip it all together. Lesson learnt for the next time!

Sweet! Very nice execution on a simple and fun concept. I love your graphics and style.

A minor improvement that would have smoothed the on ramp for me. I dunno if I misread the description and/or just drowsy in the afternoon but I was trying to move the aliens for like 2 minutes before I realized I was playing the marines. facepalm It would be nice if the game auto selected one of the marines when your turn starts.

More animation during the fights and some sound effects would all be great areas of improvement.

This was a very solid effort and I enjoyed it!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback. That's a good idea to have the first unit selected. I didn't realized it could be confusing.
