Hey friends! 👋

For those who don't know me, let me introduce myself briefly. I am a 15-year veteran web developer and a dad from South Korea.

In my last post, I asked for testers for my first game, and incredibly, an awesome friend actually stepped up to test it! A massive shoutout and infinite thanks to that person. ❤️ Now, let's dive in.

So, I playtested my own game thoroughly. And honestly... it was too easy. That "Korean Standard" difficulty I bragged about felt a bit underwhelming.

I realized I needed to fix this. So, I added several new mechanics to make it actually fun and challenging:

  • 🌫️ Fog of War System: Now you can't just see everything.
  • ✨ Upgraded VFX: Much clearer and more satisfying visual feedback.
  • ⏱️ Per-Unit Turn System: Deepened the tactical aspect.
  • ...and a few other hidden spices!

The game is finally starting to feel like a real strategy game. Are there any friends out there willing to test this updated version with me?

As promised, anyone who plays and gives feedback will be forever remembered in the Ending Credits.

Thank you, and happy defending!
