Hey, sorry to hear that, unfortunately, the AI seems to be quite buggy right now, and it is difficult to identify the root cause for it.
Right now we have paused the development, for once because of the madness that is happening with Unity, and for second because we will first finish our GMTK Game jam game Hate Me Not. Hopefully, this will bring us some more experience, and then we could possibly switch to Godot to continue with Tiles of War, with some funding at least :)
Hi thanks, it is good to hear people enjoying the game and taking time to write feedback :)
The issue with that knights is definitely new for us, I will add it to our Bug list :) Ai is unfortunately a bit buggy at the moment, but we hope to fix that in the future, once we continue development.
The scope we have in vision is a bit too big right now, so we have holded development for a bit. Our plan is to first finish Hate Me Not, because it will be quicker to finish, gather some funding, and then continue with Tiles Of War to complete it the way we want to.
With what is happening right now with Unity, we are also considering switching to Godot, which might make us take some more time to finish the game, but I hope you can try it again and enjoy it in the future.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. We have a luck modifier in place, but it is not affecting the result too much. We want to introduce more of a Rock-paper-scissors mechanic that can then make units deal more damage depending on which enemy they fight. So, spearmen will do more damage to cavalry, than the other way round, independent of their numbers.
If you want don't want to see the battles, you can turn them off in the settings panel, under Show battle animations :)
(To make them skippable by button press, we are refactoring right now a big chunk of our codebase, and it might take a while.)
Hi! Very cool game so far! I played the 3 maps of the demo campaign.
Here is some feedback for you:
1) My biggest complaint: I don't think I should lose, just because the enemy has more land than me. It's a bit frustrating. I lost multiple times like that, although I knew I could beat them and push them back with more time. In my opinion I should only lose, when they take my castle.
2) I think the bowman should be able to shoot in melee range, without getting attacked back (but maybe you disagree :D)
3) The tutorial was a bit buggy. I didn't have enough gold to buy the unit, that the tutorial wanted me to buy. Also please don't let the enemy spawn so many units in the tutorial. Just let the player win.
4) The enemies are a bit dumb sometimes. They probably shouldn't walk into water, when there are enemies(me) nearby.
Hi Stefan, thanks happy you gave Tiles of War a try :)
1) True, we have thought of the following solution for this: Optional and customizable win conditions. Right now you win, with 60% of map control. This will be optional/customizable. We might be coming up with more win conditions in the future, that would enable different modes. Stuff like King of the Hill, Protect the King, etc.
2) We want the archers to be strong units that have a close combat weakness. This gives players a bit more incentive to protect them and mix up the strategy a bit. For now, we will keep it this way, but thanks for sharing this possibility with us :)
3) Yeah, the tutorial needs a bit more work. We are currently doing a bit of refactoring, and once we have all pieces in place, the tutorial will get a re-design.
4) That makes sense. We will make the AI pay more attention to avoiding water. :)
Thanks for the feedback, we are always happy to hear your opinions, wishes etc.
If you also have some kind of feature you would really like to see in the game feel free to let us know :D
First, sometimes, I didn't find the connections, but you can't end the turn.
I also found that it is impossible to make a comeback when the enemy has more than half of all territories captured, I think that there should be such an opportunity.
And a small addition that is not very important - I think it would be nice if the units were looking to the right or to the left, depending on where they were heading.
Hey, thanks for the feedback. We added your suggestions to our backlog.
1) We are going to think of some features to make it possible to turn around battle even when losing a bit.
2) We are going to make friendly units always face right, enemy units always face left side, and when they will be moving they will be going with the direction of the movement.
I am not sure what you mean with the first part: First, sometimes, I didn't find the connections, but you can't end the turn.
I haven't noticed this. You can not click on End Turn, while it is the enemy's turn. We will be paying attention, maybe it is something that happens in the WebGL version. In any case, if we find out why this happens we are going to fix it.

I enjoyed the gameplay but wasn't able to play the campaign, the AI is stuck

The game has crisp and clear graphics, and it is fun to play.
However, about half the games or more, the AI will have this thing where I end my turn and then the AI gets stuck forever.
Skirmish doesn't have this problem.
If knights charge from a lake, they kill the other unit sometimes, but they always die right after.

Great game, my feedback is make the battles more random even when you have less people you can still win, also make them skippable.

All in all very cool game already! Keep it up :)

I mean the "end turn" button sometimes doesn't work.
