Wow thank you, such a great comment! It took me more than a day at first to even come up with an idea as I really wanted to go for something with having a variety of options (not easy to do in a jam) and I think I hit on something solid with this.

Appreciate your note on the automatons moving slowly, it can seem like the city is getting obliterated before any bots have reached the enemy so I can make them move faster for sure. Thanks for playing and for your feedback!

I agree with you on providing more info. I'd had an idea towards the end of the jam to have a little counter next to the bot screen that tells you how powerful it is and so it's up to you to change it's weapons based on that figure but I had left it far too late to implement properly. Glad you enjoyed playing it and thanks for giving feedback.

Memorising weapons used was my initial idea on making it challenging but I agree entirely about giving the player more feedback on bots already deployed. I intend to put something in for the player to track this kind of thing. Thanks for the great feedback!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! I am thinking of various ways to expand on the idea, if only slightly to make it a more complete jam experience. Random monsters is a good shout as it could add variety and bit a of additional strategy.
