The text is kinda hard to read and I didn't understand how to play. :(

Developer(+1)

Sad to hear that but I guess it was only a 'when' not a 'if' case with this problem. I'll promise there will be a good tutorial in the future. The text is sadly a tad harder to read but I had not figured it out why. Since it was a minor problem I let it be and focused on other areas of the game.

Stay crunchy.

Sadly the window appears partially outside of my screen and I can't move it (probably got to do with my screen resolution being smaller than yours or something) I won't rate for now, if you can fix it you could send me a new version. My Discord is Verburner#7202

Hiho.

There are different methods to get the window into your view but as long you see a corner you should be fine resizing the window. Tested it out and even when it's completely off-screen you can get it back on screen where you want it to resize. Right click on the game's task-bar-window and click the option that indicated the window to be moved. Press any arrow key and your mouse should attach (when window is visible) instantly to the game's window so you can freely move it around.

That should solve the problem relatively easy. Later, after the game jam, I make sure the game works on all screen sizes ^^ I am truly sorry about this inconvinience. If this doesn't solve the issue you're having provide me with a screenshot of the issue and I will try to find a solution that will work.

Stay crunchy.


Here's the resized window:

Nice, resizing worked. Interesting concept, though it could use some tuning. I think others mentioned it already, but it seems to be way too easy.

Developer(+1)

The early 10 - 20 turns are actually pretty easy. Yeah. After which the smugglers overwhelm you pretty quickly. Though I think my highscore can still be beaten by quite a notch hehe. I will work more on this game after the jam.

Stay crunchy.

Pretty neat game. I feel like it would have been nice to have the tiles with satellites pop a bit more, so they are clearer to see. As you mentioned below, the amount of shots is random, which got me killed in the later stages of the game. Maybe some music would have been nice as well. Still enjoyed it tho.

Developer

Yeah, I wanted to create a music track but sadly I forgot to download FLS and setup it beforehand. Still happy you enjoyed it a bit hehe.


Stay crunchy.

Unfortunately, I have Mac, so I can't download the game :(
I apologise, but good luck in the jam!

The idea is certainly unique, tho I don't really see the connection to the roll of the dice. It seemed to me that the gameplay was too easy, I just made a big wall of satellites and had nothing to worry about. Good job on making a working leaderboard :D.

Developer(+1)

Yeah, the idea is nice that's why i followed through. Sadly I couldn't form a stronger connection to the theme. Leaderboard is silentwolf.com and not my work ^^ I also like to wall but my highest personal score actually was achieved by not walling actually.

Stay crunchy.

Hey this is a pretty cool little game! It is kinda like battleship in a way but different. I could definitely see this being fleshed out into a bigger game with some of things you mentioned on the main page, like different managers that get you bonuses.

I got to about a 100 points though when I felt like nothing much more was happening so I ended up stopping. I was also a little confused about why some times I had like 12 shots and other times I had 1, unless maybe those were dice rolls (which would fit in with the theme!). Just felt like I had so many shots overall though that it was tricky for the smugglers to breakthrough.

Overall though very nice game!!

Developer

Yeah, the shots were dice rolls. I had not enough time left to animate those (Plans were there) but I had strictly managed my time for game design, test, pixel art and programming. The smugglers later in the game will overrun you ^^ Hadn't figured out a working tactic that helps compensating bad rolls haha ^^

Stay crunchy.

This was a really neat concept. I did find it a little difficult to differentiate where I had Satellite locations and not.  Great job!

Developer

Yeah, I had similar problems ^^ I'll redo the game as soon the jam is over and give it more time.

Stay crunchy.

Cool game! Even have time for some leaderboards.
