The Ludum Dare 30<\/a> Game Jam is about 30 minutes past the submission deadline. I made an effort, but didn’t complete on time.<\/p>\n

I do have the makings of a nice little game. A lot of the game’s intended depth and variety was simplified or removed for brevity. It should still be fun to play though. <\/p>\n

It’s starting to look good. But there’s a lot of numbers to deal with. It’s a bit of a ‘spreadsheet-game’. But that’s how these in-depth strategy games usually are — they tend to have a lot of numbers to crunch.<\/p>\n

There are really only four or five issues to complete:

\n2. Resolving conflicts
\n3. Organizing unit displays

\n5. Difficulty settings (optional)<\/p>\n

I’ll keep working and I’ll have it done soon.<\/p>\n
