This is a decently polished start! I think the thing that sells the feel of the era for me is the slightly meticulous controls that require you to manually pick each of your units to see what they can do before moving on, etc. 

A few things would make this pretty perfect in my eyes: 

  • An action counter above each unit's head, or maybe just make their sprite dim when they're out of actions.
  • Show the range of the enemies, either passively or when you cursor over them.
  • A toggle button to switch between units instead of clicking on each one manually.
  • Better indication of where the doors/buttons are. I got stuck in the second level because I didn't realize that one tile to the right would turn on the light and let me progress.
  • End turn automatically when all friendly units are out of actions.

Like I said, this is really good, otherwise I don't think I would be able to distill down my suggestions so briefly lol.

This is great, love the art, music, and gameplay. Wish you could quickly switch which unit you were selecting rather than slowly moving the cursor between each one. Definitely some good strategy, though I would have liked to see things get more varied. Also it was a little hard to tell what would be interactable, so I ended up wasting turns moving towards something that I thought was a door/switch to find out that it was not.

Overall though it's a great entry. You should feel proud of it

Little too difficult for me, haha. I barely got to level 3 or so where I had to breach the containment cells.

George feels a *little* slow? He tended to be my last one alive simply because he was the last one to reach any action.

Amazing tactical game, music is very good, graphics is clear and perfect for snes. Lot of content in this game. One of the best entry ! (maybe the best i think, need to test more).
