The mechanic is simple but promising. Good job!

Interesting game. Hitting the enemies was kinda weird, it seemed I had to move around for something to happen and it wasn't very clear where I had to hit. I miss some audio too. Overall, nice job!

Submitted

I love the graphics. Gameplay itself was on the right track, but the fighting was a bit awkward. As other have said, it could have benefited from some audio, particularly during the fighting. 

Submitted

Really interesting concept, could definitely benefit from some audio. The graphics were cool, I liked the style.

Heja Stockholm!

I adore the art, but the game could really be more difficult. It took me an attempt realising the subtraction of health was only during collision and not overlap, but after that, it was a breeze and I saved Stockholm. :) Nice submission!

Great game and nice graphics ! Maybe some audio would make more understable what happens in the game. Also, I don't know if it's a bug or not, but when enemy's health reach 0, enemy stay on the screen, which is strange because we expect them to disappear.

Good job !

Very interesting gameplay design and nice graphics.

With no audio being present the player lacks in information of knowing what action is taking place.

Overall a very well stylized game. A very simple, nice, and enjoyable gameplay experience.

Use your designed game mechanic and experiment with it. The game mechanic that you have implemented has some potential to evolve.

I really liked the idea of a RTS-style game defending the country on all fronts. Attacking the enemy was a bit iffy, sometimes the units took damage and sometimes they didn't, so I kind of had to "dance" on them lol. But it was fun, and I did beat it. Snyggt jobbat. :)

I enjoyed this. Wasn't expecting the amphibious invasion from the Lithuanians LOL.

The battles work well except you have to keep moving to continue with losses.

I saved Stockholm on my first go too so maybe it's a little too easy?

Nicely done!

Submitted

Yay! I saved Stockholm on the first try! Really great enjoyable game! I really had fun with it. Thanks for making this.

Developer

Thank you!

Fun little game! Becomes quite frantic as enemy troops spawn.

The hitboxes for dealing/taking damage threw me off a bit, and I'm not entirely sure I got the hang of them in the end.

I love the stylized map!

Thank you, yes the hitbox is a bit small, and you have to move do damage (this is because i used unitys OnTriggerEnter funktion) i konw that this isn´t the best way but i hadn´t much time, sorry

Heya! I liked how the different armies of enemies moved at different speeds. I tracked down the fast-moving 30-person army while the gargantuan 120 person army slowly loomed towards my territory.

I think it would be col to expand this game to have a more advanced combat system. Maybe involving projectiles - I'm not sure.

Nonetheless, nice job!

Developer

Yes, that would be cool! right now I don't really have the time to do it, but maybe in the future :)
