I found a bug where if you close the window after getting defeated and then you reopen the game, it will say you won or put you back to where you were when you click on continue.
Oh dear! Are you sure it hasn't set you back to your last spot? When do you close the game? Right now, there isn't really a prevention against people trying to cheat the saving system.
From what you said, I think that the reset thing isn't as much of a bug as it is a limitation of the sytems programming. I'm also pretty sure the part where I said that I closed at the right time after getting defeated and then going back and it showing as a win is false, I have a pretty bad memory so it could.ve just been me being an idiot and imagining things.
Thanks for pointing out possible bug though. I will do a thorough test of quitting the game to make sure this bug doesn't surface when I create a system to prevent abusing the save. If you have any more comments or questions or bugs you've found, feel free to pop by the discord. I'm usually online and if I'm not, I will still get around to your comments eventually.
The game thinks my pointer is in a spot it is not and its always minimized, i cant even edit my island or exit some battles without spamming till it works, fix that, i tryed to leave a show and i had to escape back to the home starting page restarting all my progress, its pissin me off.
I think the problem with the pointer is that the game starts in fullscreen. I will have that fixed in the next update. A save feature is also coming out in the next update as well.
The music in this game are original soundtracks I composed. The battle music is simple called IIslands of War Battle Theme, but you won't find it on spotify or YouTube if thats what you were wondering.
also you should make a feture so that if you cant beat the final boss you can go back and earn more weapons instead of sending you all the way to the begining or mabye putting a shop infront of the boss that sells good weapons and materials.
WOAH Man! Congrats on that major accomplishment. Unfortunately, there is nothing yet that happens.The boss is meant to utterly kill you until I could generate the ending. BUT, you have my huge respects! I haven't yet gotten there!
This is a great game! I think given some time and effort this could be the highest ranking free game on Itch! I would like to reccomend an Endless mode and the ability to make a home base or something that generates money and/or resources to get more things for your war Island. Other than that, this game is AWESOME!
OOOHHHHH! That sounds awesome! I've been toying with the idea of a persistent island outside the game in my head but you just nailed it right on. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks! If eventually it goes on steam as a pay game, please send a key over to me. Im poor. :)
Also I got another thought, since flares are really usefull but never get used because your too busy mashing the other 8 buttons, maybe you should have the flares and gustin automatically fire at incoming bullets.
That was absolutely great! Your game is a complete success in two ways: 1.) It's hard to develop a well-functioning, balanced strategy game in the short span of a game jam, and hey, you did that! 2.) The amount of content is just mind-boggling, and it does not even feel like a totally random addition, but actually designed so that the players can develop new tactics based on the loot. I hope you will polish up and extend this little gem a bit more, because it really has great potential. :) As an old "FTL" fanatic, I have to know. :D I recommended your game in an article on our blog and also uploaded a gameplay video where people can watch different 'stations' of the game. I hope that the compilation is reasonably well done and that the development of the game over time becomes clear. :) Wonderful work, keep it up!
Thanks a ton for the write up! It explains the game so well. The video and article show off the game in a way I could never have done!
Congrats on getting to the ridiculously overpowered final boss that always kills you. I myself have never made it there, nor have defeated it(because its super op).
Anyways, my excitement for developing this game further is only increasing further. I am definitely going to be working on this game for quite some time. One of the first things I'm doing is to try to make the game more tactical and feel less spammy.
Once again, thanks so much for your awesome encouragement and feedback!

hey bro I'm still getting an error where it just opens the file explorer even with the new version also I cant uninstall the old version please answer
as ive just lost twice and cant do anything about it but hope i get good luck in the next run
also you should make a feture so that if you cant beat the final boss you can go back and earn more weapons instead of sending you all the way to the begining or mabye putting a shop infront of the boss that sells good weapons and materials.
Nice idea. That could be a possibility. If you want to give even more feedback, Join the discord here!
jwiggs have u got any tips on how to beat the boss as for now he just smokes me?
Because he didnt make an ending yet, the end boss is meant to be unkillable. The other guy here just got really lucky.
and what happens next?
my iland
victory against the boss now i am the most powerfull iland!!!!
WOAH Man! Congrats on that major accomplishment. Unfortunately, there is nothing yet that happens.The boss is meant to utterly kill you until I could generate the ending. BUT, you have my huge respects! I haven't yet gotten there!
can you add a feature so you can assign all of the guns to one button plzz
Absolutely. This will feature will probably be in the next patch dropping in a couple of days.
that thing made my run so hard but for now this will do
ok thanks
Hmm. Thats interesting. May I ask what your screen resolution you are using and if you are in fullscreen or not?
jwiggs i like your game the only problem i had is the esc key since it makes you go to the main menu whinout any warning
So sorry about that. A save feature is being implemented soon and the update should be dropping later this week.

what would be better is if you get to build it yourself and place mines and stuff
This is a good game dude
Thanks a lot! Stay tuned for an update dropping in the next couple of days. It will be worth it!
When will a save feature be implemented?
A save feature is on its way very soon. It will probably be in the next update that will drop sometime next week.
