The visuals make me think you guys have done games before :D

Someone else pointed out that you can click right before the wheel slows down and it spins again, I think that is a really cool FEATURE not a BUG lol, should totally leave that in, because when you reroll, the wheel is sped up and it becomes a little skill based to land something good

Ah thanks so much!! Haha we’ve got some but loads so that’s good to hear!

love that you enjoyed it as a feature - we did decide to keep it in after finding it (but did find it quite late) xD

The visual style of the game is great. I haven't played many auto-battlers so I wasn't totally sure what to be doing during the battle phases at first, it looks like mostly just watch the battle and pick up money. The spinning mechanics to grow your army are nice and on-theme. I was a little confused why my dudes had blue x's on them but I figured out that is likely just little Scottish flags, might be good to keep those as rectangles so the look a little more obviously like flags and not delete buttons on your soldiers.

thanks for playing and really appreciate the feedback! 

They’re actually shields for the tanks (with Scottish flag painted on) so need to communicate that better with the characters.

wow this game is really cool!, i like the visual style though i wish there was an option to diable the scanline filter, i think its cool how you can click on the spin wheel before it hits something to semi reroll for free, though i dont think that should be in the game as it makes the reroll for money system obsolete, yea this game is cool all around!

Thanks so much!!

A few people have fed back about the scanlines/crt in general. Having an option to turn it off is a good idea. 

And agreed on the spin - this wasn't intended and was caught quite late sadly!

Thanks so much for playing.

Great visuals and well-executed concept! It seems to me the meta is to do one spin per round because it’s slow and you can re-roll the +- unit count so you only gain units and not lose any. At some point there’s thousands of things on screen and the framerate dropped to ~1 FPS :D (played in Firefox). Fun game! ^^

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!! It's really appreciated :D

Ah yeah - the free rerolling was unintended and caught too late unfortunately! The spinner is faster on the spins after the first but perhaps the slow roll could only happen on your very first spin (I just loved the animation aha). The performance issues are defo a problem but am just happy you got such a strong clan! We weren't sure how many people would make it that far.

Seems pretty interesting, and the humor is great, though I couldn't really understand what each of the classes were supposed to do, maybe try adding a little blurb explaining them if you hover over their icons?

Developer(+1)

Ah that's a good idea actually! They do all have diff stats and mechanics so would be helpful in the spin wheel slot or something to add a tooltip. Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback, really appreciated!

I was unfortunately unable to properly play this as the CRT effect causes a severe eye strain

I'm sorryy, we will try to get a version with settings but for the jam was impossible to get it done on time. Thx for trying tho! :D

The thing that really stood out to me here is the visuals, I love the CRT monitor vibe you've got going on. tbh this kinda game isn't really my thing but I absolutely think it does what these kinds of games should do, and does it really well. I thought that the shop and the random spin for the class was a very creative use of the theme. This was really cool. 

Thanks!! We are so glad u liked it even tho is not ur type of game hahaha. thx for trying it anyways
