Great little game, pretty fun. Would be really interesting to see it... expanded...heh. Also, the UI looks really nice!

Lovely game, but I don't see any "Running out of space". Losing territoryes doesn't seem to me as losing space.

Nice idea but I did not find the game very engaging and kind of boring.

Ooh, yeah this game needs some work. I really wasn't sure what I was doing here, I didn't initially realise that this was a real-time strategy game and was taking my time to consider where I placed my units and before I had a chance to figure out what I should be doing, I had already lost. I tried a couple of times just spamming units on enemy territory but seemingly could never win any encounter even with a significant numerical advantage. A bit more balancing of the mechanics would really help this, perhaps even try prototyping with a simple board game version before you begin coding could really help you iterate quickly and find the right values to set things at. Some interesting ideas on display here, and quite an ambitious game for a solo effort during a 48 hour period. I wasn't bothered by the lack of music, though some sound effects would have helped make me aware of what was going on in the scene as I found it difficult to focus on more than one section at a time.
