Edit: Oh, also the Webgl version doesn't seem to work here too. Maybe if it's a general problem you may want to take it down so other people don't think the game is bugged.
Typing for your life!
Controls are varied and interesting.
Soldiers' movements are surprisingly organic for a jam game (nice!)
**CONS:**
No training wheels - jump right in and use all commands.
**OVERALL:**
This is an excellent spin on an unusual concept. It's fun and it doesn't look like anything else I've seen during this jam. It's easy to imagine a cruder version of this game doing just fine, but the graphics, controls, and polish make this an impressive jam game.
I would like to see some other kind of graphics, like little troops in a battlefield with larger maps, different units and such! Because this game idea is great, and if you guys work had, you can make money out of this.
**Positive:**
- I like the concept, the idea and the implementation.
**Negative:**
- For me the font and letters were a little bit to small and hard to read, also in full screen.
- Music and sounds would be nice and round out the game.
Nice concept, Well done! :v:
P.S. Had issue on Web GL version too but after I restarted Chrome and latest update was applied it was resolved
