📡 RADIO BATTLES

The roulette idea itself is really cool. The ranking/upgrade system (stars) for duplicate fighters is also interesting. I’d like to see more unit types.

If the game were expanded — for example, by adding a campaign or missions, sound, and more units — it would look much better overall.

Very cool game. With more units, upgrades and a campaign you have a nice idea!

Nice idea, really!

Nice game ! I would like to see more features to play it more !

nice idea! I felt like there wasnt too much player agency here but it could easily be added on top of the addicting gambling gameplay.

Nice game. The basic concept is super interesting.

I feel like it lacks a bit of a sense of damage, as it's not applied at the moment of impact.

With more units, support, and a system to slightly influence the RNG, it could be really fun :)

A really nice idea for a game, the roulette mechanic was a cool addition that gave some extra flavor to the gameplay. The graphics were sharp, and overall it looks quite polished. Good job overall.

Now for some constructive criticism on what could have been done better.

Overall, I see a lot of work was put into this, but I think that development priorities were not set straight. Some aspects of the game were very well done and others were undercooked, leading to an unbalanced experience, which I understand can happen often in such short hackathons but I think is the secret in having successful entries.

For example, even though the visuals are 10/10, the game has no sounds or music. You would expect a game that looks this good to have some audio, because it really is a low hanging fruit to add. I even started checking if something was wrong with my setup. So, less time should had been spent on the visuals and more on the audio.

Same thing with the amount of content, I wish there were more signal types to have more options at each, and more troops, even if it came at the cost of having worse visuals.

One final thing, It would have been nice if there was a better explanation of the rules of the game. I know it is a lot to add in-game tutorials, but even something simple as explaining them in more detail right here in the LD page would be enough. You can even do it right now.

I spent a lot of time reviewing this because I think the game (and the team) has a lot of potential. Great effort overall, congrats!

@exofrenon Thank you very much for the detailed review. All makes sence. Our first jam and my first project with someone else who is not me :) Yea spent too much time on visuals and battle logic and then deadline SUDDENLY hit us with no sound added

Added rules and explanations here and on Itch.

A very simple but wonderful game!
The mechanic is very clear, and I managed to win on my second try. For a jam project, this is great work!

Enjoyed the game, Id like to see maybe a in game tutorial that explains it a little more. Other than that good job :)

Good game with cool idea, but a bit difficult to understand what's happening on the screen)

The roulette is a fun idea! you could really expand this game by adding ways to control the randomness!
good job!

@miclefirst nice one! Congrats on completeing the game and thank you for playing

An auto-battler where you gamble for units seems like a concept with decent potential. Also, the game low-key has the vibe of those flash games we used to play during computer lab in middle school.

Good game. Got solid mechanics. A bit of sound would be perfect and more content will expand possibilities of tactics.

Good simple fun game, randomly rolling for the different units and buffs is very interesting idea. Love the artwork and animations. GG!

It's cool, a bit addictive, I played it twice. It was a bit lacking in background music and gameplay variety, but overall it's pretty good for a game jam. And I can't help but notice that the grenade is definitely OP, especially when you get three of them in the slots xD

Nice game, good artstyle, it would be cool if it had more sfx and some music, great job

@psevdonim yea, grenade is bit OP, we were thinking of nerfing it but in this case game took bit long to complete so we didn't come up with good solution in time. Thank you for the review!

Neat game. I like the artstyle. For me a tad to much randomness, wich I can not influece

Cool and original idea! It was a bit hard to understand at first, but then it was quite fun to play. Although one small issue is that it seems to say Game over even when I win? Or did I misunderstand something?

Combination of slots and autobattler is really fun!

@fractal yea we bit of forgot to add special screen for victory. You surely won, well done :v:

nice! art is fine, love it. Would be great to add some music on a background

It was fun! Got the "game over" screen after victory (I guess)

I enjoyed playing the game, but there wasn't a a lot of feedback overall how I was doing when I went between cycles of few / many units and my board state

Great game, I liked that even despite the seemingly random gameplay, there is still room for choice

A cool, easy to pick up game with a fun roulette mechanic as a "deck-builder". I can see how this game could be expanded upon quite easily. Really well done.

Great game!
As for me it has some nostalgic vibes from old flash games in browser that I use to play as a kid
Maybe such niche art-style

Здорово. Механика простая и понятная. Все супер, немного не хватает фоновой музыки)

The art is really fun, it reminds me of Advance Wars. To be honest I was confused while playing it, I couldn't keep track of whose turn it was, possibly because we kept rolling 3 of a kind? It was fun though!

The topic comes across really well, and the roulette mechanic is a blast! It's super fun and satisfying to mess around with
