Do you want to play a real-time strategy game, but don't want to scroll around a large map? Then this is a game for you... A real-time strategy game - all on one screen.
INSTRUCTIONS: Build up your town, train military units and destroy the evil Ork base.
HINTS: - You can create laborers in the town center. - You need to assign laborers to buildings for them to produce resources. - The number of unassigned laborers is displayed next to the hammer symbol. - Buildings will be built by unassigned laborers, so keep some laborers unassigned. - You don't need resources to place buildings. The buildings will be built once you have enough resources. - Click on your town center to see how many resources you have. - Only military units can be controlled directly. - Hold the left mouse button and drag to select military units. - Iron mines can only be built on iron ore rocks.
IMPORTANT - WHY YOU CAN'T RATE GRAPHICS: I wasn't able to finish all graphics before the Jam deadline, but I needed to make them so that the player could understand what's going on. That's why the graphics for some houses and all units were made after the Jam deadline.
I like this game, (I love strategy games). If you will be developing game more you should make introductionary tutorials that will introduce one building for every level. Not almost everything at once. For strategy games there is a lot of time required. The current UI is ok it is not confusing. Good work.
Always good to see RTS entries, I've been playing it for the last 30 minutes and won. What amazing game, first one in LD31 that I will give 5/5 in fun. I would buy a mobile version of this for sure.
Enjoyed it quite a bit, up until the point where I got wiped out :P I guess I waited too long to build military units. Was fun though. Too bad about not being able to rate graphics, I thought they were nice!

sometimes your laborers even when they are free they don't build, can't progress untill it is fixed.
