This is a very exciting game and I love the UI and design elements you're going for here!
Some notes / feedback from a more casual RTS player:
- I like the click-drag system for moving, but I feel like it's going to be wasted ultimately with the right click to move feature. But as it stands; both movement systems are a bit clunky (of course, this is very early in development so I expect it'll be refined as it goes on!) but I think it'd be nice if instead of having to click drag from the tank, you could click to select, THEN click and drag, as I found myself frequently trying to select the unit, then click dragging to move, when i had to unselect the tank, then click drag.
Speaking of the click-drag and the right clicking, I noticed a slight flaw (bug?) where if you use the right click to move, and then try to set their aim halfway through, you'll instead up changing where they move to instead.
- Many elements of the UI I tend to find are really small, and this isn't coming from someone using a 4K screen or anything, just a stanard 1920x1080 screen, requiring me to lean in sometimes to get a better idea of what's happening exactly.
- Whilst I understand some weapon armaments and what the acronyms mean (e.g APHE - Armour Piercing High Explosive), not everyone is gonna know what some of these means, and sometimes going that extra mile to explain what the acronyms means can go a long way for player readibility. Of course I can tell this is the type of game that would appeal to those who are more militarically inclined (if that's even a word) but I think it helps out a lot, especially if you start adding more rounds in.
- Its great you're implementing some form of INF combat with IFV's, it left me excited! But it would be nice to have a tutorial that covers these elements. The tutorial missions focused heavily on tanks but if you're going to implement other vehicles like IFV's and have infantry accompanying them, I think its fair to expect a form of guidance for how to use them.
- It would be nice if you could use the number selection keys to select multiple or to shift click them from the side bar, especially if they get split off.
I hope this is helpful feedback, I found the game to be fairly easy to grasp and easy-ish so far, my only real criticism is just there's a LOT of stuff on screen, and its a bit hard to grasp what it all means (especially with how small the UI is at present), definitely following you on twitter and I hope there can be other places to keep track like a discord or something!
