The Dwarven Brigade is a game about recruiting an army of dwarfs to mine deeply and greedily.

.

Green and Blue Pylons: Dwarfs use these to path through the mine. Dwarfs following a blue beam will not mine. Dwarfs following a green beam will.

.

Clearing: This tool allow you to mark tiles for clear. Dwarfs will only clear on the path of a pylon and will never clear ores.

Stockpile: Used as a drop off point for dwarfs, this will make it easier to get farther down.

Forge: Dwarfs can't clear all terrain at the start, the forge allows them to do so.

Known Bugs

Minor

Dwarfs will sometimes randomly walk through walls. This is likely caused by them seeing a job through walls they aren't supposed to.

~~If two dwarfs are clearing the same tile, the second to reach the tile will be forever stuck in place. This usually only happens if you are connecting tunnels together.~~ - Potentially fixed in Post Ludum Dare Version.

~~When Dwarfs clear upwards, ladders are misplaced.~~ - Fixed in Post Ludum Dare Version.

~~The stockpile button doesn't turn off other buttons, this can result in the placement of unwanted pylons.~~ - Fixed in Post Ludum Dare Version.
~~The tooltips appear behind the buttons making the tooltips harder to read.~~ - Fixed in Post Ludum Dare Version.

Major

Attempting to place a pylon on iron ore (and maybe mythril) results in a crash

~~The Destruction button is a bit glitchy right now, if you try to destroy something while a beam is fired at it. The game will crash. Also if a dwarf is walking to a pylon when you destroy it, they will wander off into the abyss.~~ - Fixed in Post Ludum Dare version
