Aeon Shifters [7DRL Edition]
The world is in chaos. The real war is happening in a psychic realm, The Symbolic. The home of archetypes, dreams, idols, and legends.
Only a handful of humans have the perception to see the semiotic fabric that we live in, and the strength to twist it into something different.
Win this war, and YOU decide what the idols and metaphors of our new era will be. End this war, and let the new Aeon begin.

Hints
Your stamina and health regenerate over time, and your enemies do not - if you get in over your head, its ok to back off.
You also regenerate 1 stamina for killing an enemy with a regular attack.
AOE attacks are very, very useful. If you clear enough enemies, your allies can take the high ground and win the round for you.
It is usually easier to attack an enemy fortress from behind rather than head-on, but small changes in map layout will make a tactical difference.

I like the concept and the real-time play is pretty fun, especially with so much happening, but I think it's too easy. Even without thinking much about the attacks I still won multiple times just using AoE attacks repeatedly. I had fun though! The UI is clear and the sprites are cute. Good job!
