Just published my strategy game CAPH

Post by alexjgriffith »

Just published a short campaign for the strategy game I've been working on, Combined Arms Pixelated Hexagons (CAPH).

Any feedback would be appreciated!

I'm working on a multiplayer mode now. Struggling a bit with the networking in lovejs.

Hey, looks good!

Some info messages (on hits) are not visible when unit is in the north (e.g. top hexagons).

Also the second mission does not finish/progress on moving to a checkpoint.

Also I am not sure what to do here, everything has been destroyed, I am in the required positions, but the game seems to be not progressing.

Another piece of feedback: Having a button to skip any leftover moves would be great.

OK, it seems that the logistics is required to move to the checkpoint... Otherwise there is no level progress.

Likely a bug: if HQ is selected and gives orders, there don't seem to be way to cancel, even if there are no units in that radius. Maybe this button should be greyed out then.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll get to squashing that HQ bug, and try to make it a bit more clear that the Logistics units are the ones that score points

Lovely game as usual.
I'm particularly interested in the notes you have in your source code:

New Tech
JS->Fennel Interface
Fennel->JS Interface
SimpleHTTP Client

Care to elaborate? The web version seems to work really nicely

Thanks! I am trying to get a system for sending events from JS to Lua and vice versa working.

Ah interesting. I've been looking to see if there is a way to use love web games on poki but I'm not sure if that's possible
