Cool game. Very impresive how much you were able to do in time. I too had problems figuring out how to attack at first. I would suggest maybe indicating the attack direction to the player by having the unit move slightly closer to the enemy it wants to attack and having an initial direction set by targeting the enemy next to the unit with the lowest health

I like the idea! Thanks!

Controls could use some work. It was very finicky and it took me some time to understand how to attack.

Happy to see a turn based strategy game! It was fun only like most people already pointed out the buggy and clunky controls are a bit frustrating. For the rest it's really well made.

What a cool turn-based strategy game! With some more interactions and some more polishing, the game would be magnificent!

cool game, but the controls become tedious. Would have been nice to control the game with a mouse :D
the sounds and Music are great however.  well done!

Pretty good game you've made there. Really liked it. Enemies AI could be better but it's a small thing.

I think the entry is really cool. Nice idea, giving off some Advance Wars vibes. I sadly couldn't get it to work. I move a unit but after the menu above their head pops up I can't interact with anything any more..

Sorry to hear that. If possible, can you tell me, what did you do when the problem appeared?

I justr tried to reproduce it and it turns out I'm just stupid .. I thought the selection was for the world map only and didn't realize that I could select the icons .. everything's actually working, I'm just dumb :D Well.. at least now I can give it a proper play ..

Glad to hear the game's okay. You shouldn't call yourself dumb. This game lacks a tutorial after all. It's my fault you didn't undertand the mechanics
