The game looks really cool, and the mechanic where enemies scatter is super fun.

Developer

Thank you for your kind words. Seeing the enemies run for their lives is one of my favorite parts of this game, too.

Cool autobattler. Carrying your unit losses across stages feels like an original twist on a genre.

I like that you have to think about unit positioning - not only to match advantegous opponnet type, but also to mitigate loses. It was also impotant to time meging your troops efficiently, because it erplenished their number to full - this was almost "push your luck" mechanism where you uhave to decide if you want to strenghten troops now or leave them to save some, but risk to lose the whole squad.

Game's dificulty ramp up quickly arouund 5th vawe. At this point it feels harsh to have a troop limit when enemies appears in much bigger numbers. It felt wrong to have a squad in reserve when I knew that enemies will decimate my troops on field. I made it to the stage 7, but I was kinda lucky.

Graphically the game and UI is good looking.

Tiny thing: Word "avoid" under enemy is confusing, because it is not clear if I should avoid to use that type against given enemy or if they should avoid it. I think something like "weakness" would be more clear.

Overall - very nice game!

It's really impressive that you made it all the way to Stage 7. Thank you for your detailed feedback and suggestions for improvement. In particular, regarding the term “avoid,” once the game jam is over, we'll be sure to replace it with a less confusing term—such as “strength”—to reduce confusion!

This was a fun one! I may have missed it, but I think I wanted a way to swap placed units with my benched units once I acquired them - was there a way to do that that I missed? Once I got my fourth unit, I wanted to put them on the field but couldn't find a way how.

Beyond that - fun to play!

Hello. Thank you for enjoying the game. If you drag a currently deployed unit toward the inventory at the bottom of the screen, it will be un Deployed and returned to the inventory. I hadn’t thought of the replacement feature, but it sounds like a useful one. I’ll consider adding it in an update after the Game Jam ends. Thank you for the great suggestion.

A good and very enjoyable gameو I love strategy games, and I really liked the option to speed up the battle.

Developer

Thank you for playing and having fun. I was experimenting with various ideas, but since they didn't seem to fit the game jam, I ended up cutting out a lot of them.
