I may not have slept this night, but sleep is overrated anyway. I&#8217;m rather pleased with how the game turned out. I spent today polishing the game, solving bugs and actually balancing the units. The only big part that I wanted to finish but couldn&#8217;t was the AI, but in retrospect that was a monstrous task anyway. Good thing I had\u00a0a backup plan. I introduce you to the hotseat mode:<\/p>\n <p><img class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/407933\/23353-shot1.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"308\" \/><\/p>\n <p>So taking turns is my idea of letting you play on your computer with a friend, alone, or on a small device, if you don&#8217;t happen to have an Android tablet and a friend that likes strategy games lying around. The AI I would have done in a jam would have been rudimentary anyway, so maybe giving you a chance to play against yourself taking &#8216;turns&#8217; was a better idea anyway.<\/p>\n <p>So, apart from a few bugs that I didn&#8217;t quite manage to squish (nothing game breaking hopefully) the game works quite nicely, and I actually had fun testing it this morning with a friend.<\/p>\n <p>If this looks even remotely interesting to you, please give it a try on my <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-31\/?action=preview&amp;uid=23353\">entry page<\/a>. I will be continuing this game in the future so any feedback you can give is more than welcome!<\/p>\n <p>I&#8217;ll be publishing a Post Mortem these days with a few things I&#8217;ve learned from this jam, but now is the time for REST!
