We know the game is buggy, we miscalcutated the time needed to make a game like that, and this is why we decided to divide the game into two parts: before the jam deadline and after the deadline. The second one will be done later, if we will get enough support  it might come out sooner.

Good start to the game. The enviroment art looks great!

A couple of things I would like to see would be diagonal movement on the field maps. This would make the controls feel smoother I think. Also I think the battle menu would be a lot better if you added mouse controls to select commands or make the command highlighter a bit bigger/brighter. Currently you can barely see which command is highlighted so it makes the battle system feel like a bit of a chore.

As I mentioned before though it's a great beginnning to the game and I wish you all the best in finishing it!
