  + The gameplay is fun and somewhat deep. Each enemy is unique and requires specific tactics to beat. You also need to keep in mind your surroundings, enemy status, and choose your equipment and consumables for each mission. + The graphics look decent during battles. It reminds me of Into The Breach units-as-icons visual style. Characters during dialogues require some polish, though the story here is non-important; the game fills more like chess - it doesn't really need a deep and meaningful story arc, to begin with, if the gameplay is fun. Maybe something more will come up later (storywise), but I haven't seen a lot of meaningful dialogues or character development during my first several hours of the game. - The game has some bugs (to be fair, as all games do during their launch day). I had a glitch that restricted me to continue forward one time. The good news is that the game constantly saves your progress, so I didn't lose much of my playtime. - Thermonuclear needs some UI improvements. For example, currently, mostly in the game the right mouse is used as an "Escape" button (cancel current action or move to the previous menu). But during battle screen somewhy right mouse now scrolls towards your active abilities, which makes me sometimes choose a different ability than I was intending to. Another improvement would be to make the dungeon map pop-up as soon as you finish your current location's tasks (eliminate your enemies) since you don't need to do anything else here after that. The interface takes some time to get used to. Overall: playing the game feels fun, which is the main requirement in that genre. It's not perfect, but the game has its own quirks and does not have problems the dev can't fix in upcoming weeks/months.

  A fun little game. A bit clunky UI, so you need to spend some time to learn it. Sometimes game give you hard challenges and you will not be able to finish some missions from a first try.
