Seems like a neet concept but I am too tired right now to try to find a good strategy. It reminds me of a board game a friend of mine is making. I wasn't very good at that game either.

I enjoy the thought that went into this game. Learning the mechanics seems like a bit more of a time investment then I have right now, but overall great work!

I'm a sucker for tactics games. This seems like a good start. It could do with some on-screen prompts or an "End Turn" button, but I guess that's just how compo games go.

Awesome concept! Custom engine too. Very impressive.

The game was a little too easy, since the AI always comes after you, you just count out the steps they have and keep a distance.

Really cool idea!

Nice to see a strategy game. Ofc this is a prototype, but I'd say it only misses a win/lose screen to be a full game. :)

This is a really cool engine. If you were to flesh it out a bit you can make a whole game from this

First cyber-animal-punk strategy game I've ever played! That's why I play Ludum Dare games!

neat game. Using space to end turn is a bit unlucky. esay to hit by accident and scrolls on some web browsers

Neat concept, very fun, a little too easy, so I won my first try and basically had nothing else to do. Could be really great if there were a few more levels, and the enemy had more units than the player.
