I kinda ditched my group right away and just ran past everyone with my five moves guy. Didn't know how to progress beyond day 10 though. Do I need to beat all the enemies there?
Level 10 is final custom level and you need to beat all enemies there. Nevertheless you can continue the game after :)
Though I didn't understood that you have to move all 4 characters to the end tiles before pressing escape and left with only one guy after level 1.
Game became a bit easy as I easily finished to lvl 11 with this one dude. I think if enemies actually blocked you and you couldn't just run over them, it would be much more challenging.
But as it is, truly great!
Escaping first level with not whole team is by design to teach player the mechanic :) Not time for tutorials!
As for overall balancing, it's really not perfect as didn't had enough time to playtest during developing. I will definitely address this in post LD version.
