I think this has a lot of potential and fits the unconventional part of the jam really well.
As you said yourself the game is a bit lacking in what the player can do.
I agree, some of that is missing. However I'd love this to be more like a simulation the player can affect instead of control. (But that is up to you ofc).
Big, big fan of the visuals and love how there randomly is a tick-tack-toe in the war simulation! T-T
Great job!
