Added start mission menu with small, medium and large options.

Note the large mission is very slow graphically and all missions are best in fullscreen mode for performance.

This game feels unplayable, I enjoy tactics games, and wish that there was some sort of explanation of the UI and map controls. Excited to see where it goes!


Edit: I managed to play most turns of a small mission, from what I can tell, there is an ammo system and sometimes my units fire during enemy turns? I'm very lost on what the interface is trying to inform me of with my units capabilities. Additionally I figured out the map, Q and E rotate the camera left and right, but WASD simply moves the camera based on the original placement of the camera, and if you rotate at all, you will move the camera in other directions than intended.

Please, try the small mission in full screen mode (button below screen right).

The concept here is cool.

The user experience is very rough, however. There seems to be no tutorial or explanation of how the game works and what you are doing. It seems to just assume that new players will understand.

Also, the map controls are wonky and unpredictable. They do not seem to behave as expected.

It would be very nice to play this with a little more development effort into the UI and UX.

Thank you for the great feedback I will see what I can do.

got to turn 2 before it just locked the browser.  

You could try not launching the game when the page is first opened and see if that helps

Played on Chrome browser

Works fine for me on Edge Browser will test on Chrome.

?What platform?

Win 10 Chrome 105 worked fine* for me complete play through to Turn 14.

*fine being playable a bit slow and cranky but OK and no errors.

Changed the settings to not autoload hope that helps.

Updated, it was an old build of the 2D game that I worked on broke and made a 3D low poly version of its very alpha but hopefully will play (you might need to refresh the browser for another game).

I tried playing, every time I select a green soldier and try to move it or attack with it I get an error and the game locks up.
