Had a great time playing and learning this game. For me the extent of the updated training missions was just right to learn how to play. I had to replay some of them to deduct the game mechanics but imo this is part of the whole fun.
There is only one thing I would like to ask for: while the game is paused I would like to get rid of the pause menu to see the whole map. This to review what happened and also to plan ahead. I see several ways to do this:
- Just add an option to the pause menu to display the whole map. Any or every key could unlock this mode to let you play again.
- If this is perceived as cheating there are again several ways do deal with this. One would be to add a counter for the times the pause state was engaged. This counter could be displayed at the end of the game.
- Or add an option to the main menu (challenge mode) to disable the pause function completely. So if someone hits Enter in this mode, the whole map would be blanked out and just the options to reset the game or to return to the main menu would be available. Of course there should be something on the win screen that hints on the challenge mode for bragging rights.
The challenge mode would then run in combination with option 1 or 2.
