Hello! i was sent this game by the developer but since im not part of this game jam il rate it here!
Firstly The Good i Experienced:
+No Massive Learning Curve to Overcome, just send em out and watch em go!
+Units are Consistent between Battles and Areas In Both Name and Portrait, Units won't randomly change name or portraits which is neat!
+ Not Massively Hard to Grow a Decent Sized Force!
+Pretty Easy to Tell how much Money you'll get in a battle as each unit has a set reward
+Unique Events, You can get Ambushed by Green! thats Pretty Cool!
+Level Replayability, you can replay any level you've beaten as much as you like!
+The Character Portraits and Names are Charming and plain Silly, in the Best Way!
Things i Found...Eh, Not Bad but Not Great, Generally things im Neutral on or felt needed to be put somewhere.
=No way to Skip the End Battle Screen or a Timer Indicating to wait, Its easy to realise you just need to wait after a battle or two but it isn't communicated Greatly
=No Massively Easy to tell the First two Levels difficultys Apart, What i mean by this is theirs not real Indicator Level 2 is Harder then 1 until your in the Level itself which i feel could be Communicated better, Maybe with a Wizard Style Tower!
=Cameras at a Unique Angle, i concider this neither Bad nor Great as a Unique Camera angle is always fun but it also Relates to a Latter issue i Have.
=Game Resets after the Credit Screen, This is fine and Inoffensive as by the time you beat the King you've already reached the Max Unit Cap Anyway, i just felt compelled to put this somewhere
Things i Disliked
-While it Says so in the Games Page, Theirs no Instructions Ingame on how to Play, i Genuinelly forgot i could move the Camera until i tried to just to prove i couldn't and didn't remember i could move my units before a Battle until Rereading the Page again.
-Aside from Fort Size theirs No Indicator on how many Units their will be or how hard a Fight will be, Sometimes a Harder and Weaker Fort Share the same unit count cause of an ambush or a seemingly random amount of units were spawned, a Number or something similar to indicate this would be nice.
-The Maximum amount of Units you can have in your Army isn't Specified meaning you can spend money on literally nothing which can be annoying.
-Sometimes Units will Hyperfocus and Lock onto a Unit they can't reach but will still attempt to Persue instead of Attacking the Unit Thats Directly Attacking them, This can be a little annoying as it can get a Unit killed because they can't stop staring someone down.
-No Real Variety in Units or what they do Despite the Various Portraits, all just People with Swords, Only real Difference is the King has a Crown and a Golden one.
-Can be just a Little Repetitive with constant battles to get Money to Buy Soldiers to Fight more Battles.
Iv mentioned nothing about Music because i don't have any say on that, at time of comment i don't have any headphones that work with my pc so while im certain its good thats not for me to judge, don't ask a man with no tongue to taste test.
Other then that this is a Lovely Little Game that i Utterly Enjoyed the whole way Through, Its Packed with Charm, Made with Love and a Rather Solid Set of Code, As Simple as it is i faced not a single bug while i played, Can't Take your Camera too far out of Bounds, Units can't fall off the Map or be launched in the Air, The Most i can point to is the Issue of them Hyperfocusing but its a Rather Negligable Bug at Most, a Solid 8 of 10 for me, Knows what it is and thats a Charming little Army Game!
