I wish I weren't in a hurry to return comments! I really liked what I saw here, but I feel like I only scratched the surface on this one, and I would like to see how deep it goes. A few thoughts:
- My instinct of "click to view the full message, then start reading it" backfired on me in the workshop, where the messages automatically advanced after a second of two.
- It's missing some explosion effects! I imagine they're a victim of the deadline?
- At the start of each round, it takes a bit too long for the action to get going for my liking.
- Lots of quality-of-life stuff here! Much more than you normally see in a jam game, so kudos.
