The polish on this is really nice. I could see it working well on mobile too. Add some more maps and bird types and get back to me :)

This is really really great. If you had multiple levels and a couple more different troop classes this would definitely be sellable. Fantastic work you two! (The leaderboard was a really nice touch too. I'm currently 1st on it but that will likely change) Big thumbs up!

I agree with @trifectuh, definitely could be fun for mobile! Really fun art, too! I love the little feathers on their heads! Love what you came up with!

A Arte ficou muito legal, esses Torchics são bem carismáticos

Very similar to mushroom wars but a very nice and polished take on it indeed! Great work!

Feels really cute and shiny, very mobile-ish =) Completed from the polish standpoint, but I'd gladly play couple more levels and maybe some additional mechanics. Anyway, it's definitely a feat to be able to pull something like that in 72 hours. Nice job!

This is a really high-quality game. The level of polish was really good and I really enjoyed the mechanics of the game. Good game I enjoyed it a lot

Really fun game! Really well polished, and the art and music really work well together. Once you figure out a certain strategy, it's pretty easy to win quickly, but the game definitely has potential to be more.

Those poor cute birds :anguished:

Simplistic but fun concept with really polished art and sound! Got an angry birds sort of vibe from it. If you ended up adding some more stages and unit types, I would definitely enjoy playing this on mobile to kill time. Great work!

Oh my lord this is adorable! I love both the art style and the music! very nice take on the theme.

Lots of valuable feedback here...

@trifectuh - Thanks, we put a lot of work into polish and making things clear. More levels and "classes" are coming soon. :D

@dubthink, @ravarion, @lucecyl - A lot of love went into polishment and making things as clear as possible. And well deserved kudos to the artist @Lucas-Carvalho. Thanks a lot for the feedback.

@muzzz29 - Your score of 3437 held the #1 for quite a good time. It has been beaten by... 28 points. haha Did you have to sacrifice those extra 3 cuties? Thanks a ton for the feedback!

@icehottet - Games like Mushroom Wars were references in the concept phase, but in our game, troops behave individually and interact with each other. It's a big deal in my opinion, but we will surely look at MW for reference and comparison. Thanks for the feedback.

@a333, @subtlydramatic, @rodrigo-grego - Glad you enjoyed the cute vibe. That's exactly what we were aiming at. :D Thanks a lot!

@owen-rees - Expect a few more mechanics to come very soon with additional levels. Thanks for playing and giving us feedback.

@svntax - Thanks, Svntax! Beating the game is not that hard once you identify some gaps. But you have to be able to identify it and perfect it if you're going to the leaderboards' top (as you did). I'm curious about this strategy, if you're willing to share it. Thanks again!

@sodaraptor - Thanks! If we ever release it at mobile, I'll surely send you a message. We're currently looking into adding more levels and a couple more troops.

@blobo - Thanks for the compliments. Nice nick, btw. :D

Thanks a lot for all the great feedback. We put a lot of love and effort into it, and it's definitely heart warming to see you enjoying the game.

We are very open to your suggestions, critics and feedback.

So, for now... More levels, more troops... Got it! Expect it to happen soon in the post jam.

If anything else bothers you or you'd like to see added into Cute Army Conquest, please feel free to comment about it. We already have some plans but your nice ideas are always very welcome.

Many many thanks again!

Cute graphics, funny game. Congrats team!

Awesome innovative gameplay, cute graphics that wouldn't look out of place in a big budget mobile game. FUN!
Esosek8 Dec 2018, 17:32
I love the graphics! Cuties battling each other is awesome idea and sound was well made too. The controls was harder to learn because clicking on single unit while it is running was hard. But overall is great and AI was actually pretty smart. Keep it up guys! :)

You could sell this, everything is great! The graphics, music, gameplay, everything! One bad thing though, it was far to difficult for me in the beginning, would like to have something simple as the first level (maybe I am just very bad).
Mordokay10 Dec 2018, 18:56
Awesome graphics! Managed to get to the top of the leaderboard. That is what happens when you play a lot of Starcraft :P

The game by itself is great to play and lots of fun. Some games like this one have a lot of potential for new features, improvements and polish.

Things I loved: Graphics, Sounds, controls, Unit selection and movement.

Things I would love to play In the future: More map diversity. Different types of weapons (or animals?)
Pinho10 Dec 2018, 19:16
I particularly like the UI, the circle is well designed.
Animations are clear and the mechanics with bomberkamikaze is really fun, I was adaptating my strategy around that.

Really well done.

This is a very polished game! I love the art style, it's soooo cute, I really feel sorry sacrificing them!

It really makes me happy! :smile:

Very interesting RTS game! The existence of bombs both satisfying the theme, as well as the problem with having 'equally produced units'. You really have to micro manage your units to minimize losses and open up potential to attack. The graphics are really cute and the sounds are great!

Very cute and fun. Good job I've rarely played an RST made in an LD with this amount of polish!

This window felt so glorious. You guys pulled of a really outstanding game. The game can be replayable for a better score. Good job
Sabrina Parenza26 Dec 2018, 00:34
First time I played I felt really good at the game because I finished it really fast! hahaha
Then I replayed it and I got a better idea of the concept and gameplay.
I loved the art! Cute stuff is something that is in my blood (my entry is also around cuteness, maybe you could check it out
Jessé Santana26 Dec 2018, 00:47
Gameplay was very interesting, good job! I felt like controlling a creep/minion in a moba. RTS is one of my favorite game genres and you really nailed it! I'm guessing it isnt your first time with the genre, right? =]
Really nice entry.
