Calculated Loss

This 48 hours offline HunJam 2023 game is a tribute to the legendary 30-year-old anti-war Cannon Fodder, original released for Amiga. 

I tried to bring the message of the original game, that behind the soldiers sent to cannon fodder there are real human lives, and not just numbers written on a piece of paper, calculated losses.  

The theme of the jam is “growth": the number of squads and the number of enlisted soldiers, the playable map, and the surviors ranks increases per level. Higher rank: better shooting skills.
Unfortunately, i did not manage to do the planned amount of levels and bug fixes. After playing through this, try the original, because it's much better than this... :) 

This genre is slowly disappearing completely, although it brought me some really exciting moments when I was young.
