This is a cool idea! Unexpected but interesting take on the theme. :)

Cool idea, funny game, it should be great to play agains a IA, but I know it is not easy.

Very original idea. I think it would be more interessting if there were some minigames or other events, when a player enters a occupied territory.

Brilliant concept! I played for two players so it got repetitive after a while, but I can imagine how the experience will become way better when facing others.

Some sounds or an AI mode, would have been welcome additions, but for a 48h compo entry this already feels very solid. Great job!

Good idea. Graphics and controls felt good - good physics

Good concept & mix of gameplay, overall pleasant experience, regarding controls, you may have implemented something related to the time the player's press the shoot button (it's quite standard/expected with golf game), however the current controls are good enough to provide a good experience. Keep up the good work :thumbsup:

This is the most amazing and unexpected thing I've seen so far. This game is the reason I love game jams. You have perfectly captured what the Scramble of Africa was. Basically :laughing:. I couldn't figure out what the conditions were for successfully conquering another country, it seemed a but random? Anyway, very nice to see a game with a history angle, great work :star:

I grabbed 2 friends and played this! That was a lot of fun! Very novel concept. I wish taking countries from each other had a little bit more defined rules to it, but that seems okay. Noticed that the different countries had varying stats. Would love to see those stats developed into more gameplay! Very interested to see what you would potentially do next with this.
