Some screen shake is necessary, but that was too much! Pretty fun, though.

Pretty cool, it was a refreshing strategy game. I like how you organically teach gameplay with each level. I did have a little trouble figuring out the point of some early levels though.

Nice Concept. But the screen shake is … too much.

Challenging game! I'm still not exactly sure how the "tornado" looking enemies work. Music is great!

Hahaha I disagree I LOVED THE MEGA ULTRA SCREENSHAKE!!!!

Quite an interesting game -- it can be difficult to figure out what to do in the first one or two levels and it seems unintuitive that you *must* lose one unit

I too was blown away by the screen shake. I really like the puzzles, and each one did a good job of teaching the new mechanics of the components. Nice job!

Nice approach to teaching mechanics by gameplay although I didn't understand how those tornados work.

Well done. I didn't understand what I was fighting though. I got stuck on a big map with an arrow, a shield and a bomb and like a dozen snakes.

That was quite fun, some moments were a bit intense but overall a very solid entry! Good job!

Neat concept. Always nice to see well-executed strategy or puzzle games in LD, since they're pretty tough to do well.

I agree with @secretmapper the ultra mega screenshake made me lose my shit xD.
Really cool original concept

Really well done. It feels like a complete and coherent package. The music fits the sarcastic cynicism just as well as the mechanics!

I enjoyed the lack of tutorial, letting me test by experimentation. Small tight scope like this benefits from that joy of discovery. I liked the simple effective graphics, and they fit well with the crunch static-filled sound effects.

There were times when the spectacle of chain reaction and escalation of screenshake would burst through what was reasonable and run away over the hill, but I kind of didn't mind. Except a few times when I did, but those were times when I had to repeat the same puzzle a few times.

I made it to the puzzle with two arrows near the center, and a lot of bombs creating a wavefront of flame coming at you, and you have to predict the future. The game got me there, I had learned the rules. Or so I thought... I tried this puzzle a half dozen times at least. Then I quit, not ragequit, but just finished my time with it, when I thought "Finally, I figured it out" and I took my final turn assuming I would win, but something I didn't understand happened and I died in the same turn, rather than one turn later, than my enemy. Not sure what it was.

Speaking of not sure what it was, I was a bit unclear on the art of the... turkey leg? Country of Italy? Tornado? Swinging swoosh sword? No worries.

Usually I suggest a small tweak. Here I'm not sure what that would be, it's pretty fully realized. I think my favorite thing you DID include was a solid variety of you-lose messages. I guess maybe after I lost the flame level five times I was wishing for a "hurry up and restart" button? But not hard enough to be mashing my kb.

Very nice entry covering all the bases and creating an experience, well done.

@ravarion As a Vlambeer fan, I'm going to have to disagree on the screen shake XD. Screen shake to the max

Great game! I love simple strategy games

great game!

some tutorial would have been nice (took me quite some time to figure out how the units move and how enemies get "activated")

love the music - fits the game very well

also there was one level i managed to kill all the enemies without one unit dying but had to wait for one of my units to die to finish the level (i know sacrifices must be made - but i felt kinda cheated)

The game is awesome! It's really obvious in basic rules but it is really fun to play and now I can't forget this ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SUPER MEGA ULTRA SCREENSHAKE:)

Glad everyone liked the screen shake! XD

Nice concept for the puzzle game, good game.
