I'm finding it a bit too fast & chaotic; consequently there doesn't appear to be very much strategy involved.

How do the units stack up against each other? are some better Vs specific others? (e.g. Heavy Tank and infanty mutually ineffective against one-another, artillery fragile but heavy hitting etc etc)
Also, all shots appear to be homing? which negates any benefit that speed might offer to lighter vehicles.

Too fast => you can change the game speed with +/- at any time.

I'd say it's just as much of a skill game than as a strategy if not more.

Units damage other unit types the same. But if a unit has little health, it's recommended to pull bigger units away to not waste bullets on it.

If you just sit in one place and play the battle there, then speed does not matter much. But: a slow unit cannot run away from a fast one, the fast one always reaches it and can fire while it follows it. Fast units on the other hand can run away so they can be used to divide the enemy.

Impressive to see how much you fitted into 4k, pretty much everything an RTS should have.

The mouse scroll on the edge is well done too.

I couldn't beat the first level unfortunately Sad

Is it tile based or free form?

Nice job!

PS: This should get the 'best name' award

What does tile based or free form mean?

Are there tiles which units traverse occupy/traverse around... but obviously not!
