Great submission, this has lot's of potential!

Some changes that i would love to see:

- make the energy system obvious, it took 3 tries for me to understand why things weren't working

- quick button for turning buildings on and off (or even a customizable preset that will switch buildings for you in the battle phase)

- unit variety and an indicator that will show where the enemies will come from (this is a personal preference)

- bug: if you restart you lose the upgrade button?

I can definitely see this game sell well on steam for a couple bucks after some polishing and more content!

Good job :)

P.S.: Were you inspired at all by 9 kings?

Oh wow, thank you for the suggestions and for trying out the game! :)

I have already partially implemented multiplayer (that's why there is an iroh library in the zip), but i didn't have that in mind during development, so it would take significant efforts to do that sadly.

I'll keep in mind your observations if i continue the game tho!

Thank you so much for trying it out! :)

Yeah the game definitely needs more polishing, thanks for the suggestions. And sorry about your ear :P
