[raw]
made by andrewjoy for LD32 (COMPO)
Send your gallant convention-goers into battle against other conventions! Make decisions that influence who you have to send into battle and try not to get overwhelmed!

My original idea tanked 10 hours off of submission, so I threw this together on the downward slope of an all-nighter. Enjoy!

Really nice game. I had a good time with it. Good idea. you have to make quick decision and it always keeps you on edge. :)

Some good fun to be had here. The decisions are a little too quick - its mostly just click and pray for that sweet green success, but overall its a fun little experience with a cheeky idea. Good use of the theme. Well-done.

This is really weird. And really funny.

Does turn into a button mash somewhat, and making it clear you're the blue con and not the red one would be a good idea. :P

Ha, nice! You also thought to take it in the direction of a con! :D
Fairly simple game, but it was pretty entertaining. I wanted to read everything, but to win you had to click through kinda fast. :P

I like to think my decisions through a bit more but altogether, was a fun experience.

Fun, silly, although I'd argue it's..."Convention"al ;)

PROTIP: Spamming the right hand side is never a "bad" thing, i.e. -30 health. Right side seems safer, while left is riskier, but with bigger rewards on occasion.

Definitely not the worst game I played today. It was impossible for me to inflict even a single point of damage to the enemy convention. I must revise my strategy and try again!

Was kind of fun, took me a little bit to understand what was happening.
