Final bug fix rush in progress. Sorry if the game is nonfunctional, we're doing our best before the main programmer has to sleep.

Final bug fix rush in progress. Sorry if the game is nonfunctional, we're doing our best before the main programmer has to sleep.
Final bugfix Lock8 could manage is out, doors work! There's a lot more we would of liked to do but we just didn't have time.
Very nice game, loved the music i only wish that there was a tutorial... I spent a while trying to learn how to play....
like the art style, though a bit hard to learn
I played for a few minutes, but I have to admit, I don't know what I did and what to do haha. Quite hard to get what to do.
But Beside I liked the art and the retro sound !
Maybe need a detailed tutorial? I want to understand it! :p
I feel humbled by the fact that my artstyle was likeable, on a sidenote, this was my first ever interaction with animation of sorts, and I really feel bad for Locke8 as he had to make the 2 non-sniper dwarf sprites himself as I decided that playing Stellaris for several hours with music on making Discord pings near impossible to hear when I was called in to make more sprites. I really feel bad about the fact that I didn't make more alien sprites, I had all the groundwork for unique enemies art-wise but as I am a moron I simply didn't do that. I also still didn't see my animations in action, outside of the several gifs I made for showcase in the group Discord, I would also like to hear thoughts on the dwarf sniper shooting animation, since while making it I thought it looks extremely weird but I couldn't find a better way to implement the recoil, etc.
Updated the description a little to help clear up any confusion on what you should do after seeing some of the comments here. Hope it helps!
Interesting little game. I really liked the music, and building new characters was a very nice part of the game. I would have liked there to be some feedback on when my units were attacking. Like an animation or sound effect to indicate that they're attacking other than the small enemy health bars decreasing. All in all I enjoyed it and would like to see more of it!
yeah its hard to understand what i need to do)
Like matt-rice said, a little feedback would have helped the game a lot! It was hard to tell how my units were attacking, or how I was supposed to use them best.
But I think you had a great start! I loved the style and I was really excited to build up my army against the waves of enemies.
I agree with some of the other comments here about hard to know what exactly to do, but I did like the look/sound of the game.
Pretty fun, though there seemed to be an issue with going fullscreen, since the units wouldn't go where I clicked, rather offset by some amount.
