I couldn't really play this game because I'm dumb and can't figure out how to leave the shop. I do like the theme of taking over the world though.

Developer

Sorry for making it not obvious. You need to use the map on the bottom right and interact with it. I am really sorry for not including any tutorial and will update the description of the game to make it easier for other players to understand. Thank you for your valuable feedback!

To be honest, took me a while to figure out what to do and how to do it. Deploying "troops" on the board was kinda tedious with how small of a margin you have to place it. Starting combat took me a while too and even then I was confused with what to do haha. This has a lot of potential with its narrative. Keep working on it to improve it and i'm sure i'll be even more fun!

Developer

Thank you for feedback! Do you have any suggestion, how I could make it easier to understand in the description of the game, because I sadly cannot change these things currently. Thank you

Really cool twist on the autochess genre. Had difficulties in fighting the cat cuz their movement felt random but other than that, really enjoyed the game!

Thank you for playing, I am really exited to improve the ai to make it a real strategy/prediction game. I already wanted to improve the ai while working on it, where you could get 200$ but increase the enemy ai level, but maybe I'll just improve it in general with different difficulties. Must say, it's nice to read, that you got that far and had fun!

Wish you  a nice day

This game feels absolutely bizarre in the best way, it took me a little bit to get what was going on (and I still don't fully understand) but I feel like that is slightly the fun of it. Maybe you could potentially add some sort of tutorial stage to learn people the basics? It shows that you genuinely had fun creating this and so very well done for your first game jam :)

Developer

Thank you very much!
I thought that most players would start with Sector 1, but all my friends, who tested it went right into a random Sector T-T

I tried to make the sectors act like a tutorial, with more complicated levels after each another, but I ran out of time and the enemy ai was not good enought to be predictable.

Wish you a great day

Really love your unique game mechanic 

Developer

Thank you :D

I like the concept, it's very creative and ties in really nicely to the theme. The gameplay is cool, but I do feel like it could be improved by having a way of at least partially knowing enemy actions, as they are currently random and there's no real way to predict them. Despite that, you made a good game and congrats on completing your first jam!

Thank you. I had planned to add these features at the last day, but I got sick. I am really disappointed that the strategy element is missing. Wish you a nice day

The game looks very good, but I didn't understand it. Good job

Developer

Thank you. I know it's complicated, if you want, you could tell me, what you didn't understand. Then I could help you and add it to the game's description so others can understand it too.

Wish you nice day
