hm... I'd say make the catapult a bit more powerful/give it a bit more HP, and then drive the cost up a bit
otherwise, it looks pretty balanced.

EDIT: maybe give the catapult a chance to miss the intended block or cause collateral damage?

Yeah actually I'm thinking of raising the damage of catapult to 4, it was 3 before because the highest HP a unit could have was only 3 before I buffed the overall HP. And raise its HP to 5.

Only problem I see if I buff the catapult is that it might result in a catapult war :(
it should be fine if you raise the cost enough

yeah it's mostly about balancing, which is quite hard at this stage.

Very nice usage of the split screen mode. I really like that. It makes it unique as very few projects utilize it, and it works quite well with this type of game. =)

Alright, new update!
Now the unit movement, attacks, damage calculations, they all work, and also ending a turn works!



If you see it to the end, you'll see that the archer changes from archer to infantry when it makes a successful attack. It's already fixed, but I was too lazy to make another screenshot :P

Stuff I need to do now:
-Main menu with the ability to load the game
-Saving the game
-Checking the bases' HP and telling the player if he won or lost
-Most importantly, AI

First 3 should be really easy, I'm just afraid of how I'm going to do AI. It'll be a major PITA for a decent AI (since this is very much like chess or advance war). Hopefully I can make one that's decent without being too slow...

Made my main menu screen, with vertical text sprites :)

Sits at just under 800 bytes, I'm sure I can optimize it even more by changing some of the characters, but eh, nbd :P



Only drawback to this is that any MP OSes would need to run a small asm program (specifically asm program with this hex: FDCB058EC9)
because of the flag that deletes the bottom row in the text routine.

Next up is making AI, and this should be complete :D (but then AI will take a while to make... so hopefully I'll be finished before due date x.x)

After the contest, I'll probably implement 2 player mode, either via link cable with asm program help or 2 player on 1 calc mode :)

Edit: So far, the code takes up 10348 bytes, that's without any AI or implementing win condition. Win condition should be easy, but hopefully AI fits in another 10k bytes x.x
