Great looking little rts. However I did find that using 'M' to initiate action is a bit hard. How about the right mouse button for example? "ROGGAN!" When I resized the game window, the mouse control disappeared for some reason. That kinda broke the game.

Really like the sound design on this one. Really nicely put together all round, great little game.

Man, this is complex. (In a positive way.) Your manual is longer than some entries here.
The graphics are cute.

I felt a bit confused while playing, at least before I read the help. :D Good music. :)

Wow, this is insanely deep gameplay for 48 hours. Feels like I could sink hours into just getting the hang of this.

I couldn't seem to get the jar file to run in either the applet or the windows file.

@Starspell, which version of Windows and Java are you using? (Would be good to know also 32 bit or 64 bit Windows? and 32 or 64bit Java)?

You could try running it from a command window, and if any weird errors come out, please let me know :-)

java -jar berkano-tiny-terrors-ld27.jar

Really interesting gameplay, really deep, seems great!

I was just eating pistachios and drinking beer and looking at the screen...

berkano 2013-08-29 17:10

@ezolotko lol! Yes it does kinda play itself!

Very sweet game. This music... Very good

Sound is great, much props for that.

Solid four stars, would have given 5 but it's hard to learn at first. Other than that awesome game.

graphics & sounds i like it. Hard to understand, but i like the concept. Good job

Great game! Just... wow! I love RTS, and the survival concept... maaaan^^

Wow, really good game. Cute graphics and quite complex gameplay. Though the controlls really take some getting used to. It would be nice if one could at least move around the map with the arrow keys. But still, nicely done!

Fairly decent game, the controls don't seem to be the standard rts controls, so getting used to the hotkeys took some time. Kinda fun but 10 seconds not enough time to fend off attacks and the gameplay was not that deep, I mean creating more warriors would have been cool.

Wow - this is a pretty cool and complex game. RTS-Horror-Survival - I don't know any other game like that, and if anybody does, he should tell me right away :D

What really hurt my playing experience were the controls. Jumpy scrolling by right-clicking? A keyboard shortcut just for moving? I think I would've enjoyed the game far more if I could:
- Right-click-drag to scroll
- Right click to make a selected unit move
- Ctrl+Click or Left-Click-and-Drag to open a building/command circle (depending on the target)

I only finished the first level because it became to cumbersome for me to control it like that - which is a pity, because apart from that, this looks like a really solid entry!

Solid stuff, the controls were a bit unintuitive but it all makes sense with the guide haha.
