I had a brainfart moment when I realized the white house could move, lol. Very fun little game, I found myseklf using actual tactics to keep the invaders out with intermediate camps. And that walking animation is just brilliant X)

I really love your game! I made some tactics to beat the game more faster! I really like the idea of a governament building walking around haha its pretty funny, good job!

Nice entry but I could only play for about a minute before it crashed (new installation of Win7). Here's a play through: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/208221777

I got a crash as well. I think it happens right when one of my troops runs into an enemy troop.

oh no. i'll check.

commanderstitch 2017-12-10 04:08

hmmm. i just loaded it up and played it. Didn't crash. I wonder what's going on.

Interesting game. The premise makes sense for the theme but the walking White House is really bizarre, lol. I played for a little while until it crashed (I'm not sure why) but here's my high score!

Really great game, although it didn't catch my eye from the screenshots... I gotta say it is from the few games that i really enjoyed and had fun like i would on a normal game :D Good work and i really appreciated having a timelapse also :D Keep up the good work!

P.S. I beat your score xD Capture2.PNG

At the start I thought it was silly, but then I saw how it is actually quite deep/strategic. I like the balance between action/strategy: * "action": running around collecting coins, scouting, avoiding crowds * "strategy": deciding how best to lay out your factories so that you can harvest coins from them efficiently, deciding how to lay our your bases

nice!

Cool game, made me laugh and it was fun to play :) It wasn't very clear who is my enemy and who is my ally at first though.

Very ambitious to make actual "strategy" game in a jam :)

Great game! It's like age of empires but a bit simplified xD I did get that bug of the red building, but I won anyway hahah

Felt a bit like John Conway's Game of Life, with a cameo by the White House. Really nice that you crammed in so many NPC's!

I would have liked some keyboard shortcuts for selecting a house to build.

Finally a game where i can be an ever expanding white house. Game was neat, had no clue what to do at the beginning though since it never explained how to create buildings to get money.
