I did experience a bug that prevented me from placing units (it seemed like it was due to an interaction between the horizontal scroll bar and the number of units being displayed?) but overall the gameplay worked as expected and the difficulty ramp was smooth.\n\nThe main frustrations I encountered were tedious unit placement (as others mentioned) and having to replay the same fights every time I entered the dungeon again. I also found it odd that you had to re-buy lost units. These mechanics meant you could grind the first few levels to make a lot of money to upgrade your army and subsequently steamroll the rest of the levels. The simple pathfinding led to units engaging opponents in inefficient ways (reminds me of AoE2), but I don't expect a game jam game to nail this.\n\nThe graphics were great and the audio served its purpose.
