This was phenomenal! I actually forgot I was playing a game jam game and thought it was a full release title - I got completely sucked into it.
It's so well balanced and it's actually a beautifully paced strategy game. I just cannot fathom how you pushed this out in a week without even a hint of a bug in sight!
I'm a little unsure how much the theme shows up in gameplay as such, because I've only played it twice, but it does make sense and it's definitely there. :)
Superb game!
