Raetian War

Raetian War is a tactical strategy game about a band of soldiers for hire who are unexpectedly thrown into the middle of a dangerous, world changing campaign. Carefully manage your units to keep them from harm and stop the dark forces that await them at every turn.

Make use of multiple different weapons, items, and spells. Play to each character's strengths. Perhaps some enemy units can be recruited to your side under the right circumstances.

The game can be continued and won even if you lose some units. However, if Ivan or Guido die, it's game over.

This game is a prototype for a larger project. It is currently only three levels but I will likely continue to work on this project, adding more mechanics and levels, as well as improving what is in the game right now.

Controls

The game can be played entirely with a mouse but there are keyboard controls as well for quality of life. Left click on a blue unit to select them and then click again on a highlighted tile to move. From there, use the menu on the left side of the screen to give an order to that unit. Right click to deselect a unit or go back when navigating menus. The options in the menus can also be selected with the number keys.

The camera can be moved by WASD, arrow keys, or middle clicking and dragging. Space bar can be used to quickly select a blue unit. Enter can be used to quickly end your turn.

Most in game information is explained by a box on the right side of the screen, if something in the game is unclear, please let me know in a comment and I will try to fix it.

This is my first game project of this scale, I appreciate any feedback/criticism that helps me improve the game.
