@nilo, do you have the prerequisites (.net 4.0 and xna) installed?
With some progression, like more colors and whatnot, you'd have yourself a pretty good puzzle game here. Good job.
Interesting idea, challenging game.
Just a quick tip: .pdb file is a debug database used during debugging in visual studio. It weights quite a lot (~10 MB in your case), but it is not necessary to include it into archives :)
Really cool design - very minimalist and immediate but with a bit of thought required from the player.
Had some fun, very interesting real time strategy in such a simple form :)
Good game! I recalled a board of Risk. Then it could have more than one type of enemy. :D
interesting concept would like to see this on a larger scale some time!
Like it. Well tought. an option to play without the time limit. (even if it was the competition theme) would have been nice, I kinda feel it is too little time to have the full experience.
strange game, but i like the concept, you play in easy and is hard anyway. But i like, good job
Really neat game concept. The basic art looked cool and effectively communicated what was going on. Like that other guy said, "Voronoi maps!"
That's fun :) Easy and normal are good, hard is haaard. Size of map is ok because of the time :D
wouldn't work? nothing happens when I click the .exe : / sadface
Excellent idea! cool strategy game! as everybody said it would be nice to have a bigger map and also because of the big size it dosent need time , but thats for an other game since this is for LD... great work! if you continue doing this game with more stuff ill love to play it :D

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Nice strategy game. The AI on hard is difficult, that's nice. It would be cool to have bigger map with more sectors. Great job !
