It's that fun.**\nCongratulations, sir. You simplified Advance Wars and made it fun.\n\nI agree with the opinion of @darylsteak, you need to have a powerful grasp on the mechanics. However, it's simple enough for you to learn. It's chess, it's rock-paper-scissors, and you just have to put the units next to each other than over it.\n\nI can't really say much here but if you want to make this game's better, I suggest you start your design aesthetics from scratch. The \"Tower, People, Tanks\" aesthetics doesn't fit the rock-paper-scissors sense. It's bad enough that I start to call them as chess pieces: The Pawn(People), The Tower(Dictator) and the Tank.\n\nYou made a great job of this and this should be certainly improved.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Noa Calice","author_uid":"1009812","time":"2017-12-04T11:59:26Z","epoch":1512388766,"modified":1512388766,"text":"The art has a gritty, juicy feeling to it and the concept is really cool !

I liked the art. The music was pretty nice too (although for some reason when entering a level it would stop).\nThe gameplay is pretty good (I guess I'm biased since I like Advance Wars quite a bit) although in my opinion the game isn't very readable and sometimes it's hard to understand what is going on.\nOverall it's a very nice game, good work !
