Very good prototype. I played several times trying to find the seven chips, but I only got three lol.
It's kind of difficult and minmaxxing is a must in order to survive multiple rounds. And considering that the chip's location is always the same, it would be very difficult in a randomly generated scenario.
I had fun looking for the best strategy, I'll play it some more trying to find more chips, but since I already know the location of the chips, it feels like using cheats.
