Very beautiful game! This type of game is not something I usually play, so I unfortunately do not have much insight on whether mechanic X or Y is fair or not. This might speak to my lack of creativity here more than anything else, but I found myself making similar formations each round, so it would be useful if you kept the same pieces on the board each time, so you don't have to click and drag dozens of pieces over and over. Granted, this strategy did not pan out for me in the end (turns out you can't mainly use the receivers in a single chain and expect to win), so I like the idea of tutorial stages that force you to use more pieces (the instructions at the start are quite charming, though). Maybe another way to achieve a similar reduction in building time is to force the player to start over each round with limited receivers or limit the number of pieces they can move to the next round (before the shop).

Thank you for the review!! <3
We're glad you were able to enjoy the game despite it not really being something you're used to!
We have already discussed the possibility of "saving" your previous formation so that you don't have to place the same formation over and over again, as well as some ways to make gameplay more varied and not have the player always use the same strat/units, so expect that to happen! :D
