Hello! I found the NYU Game Design Jams for this semester and decided to try your game off of a recommendation. This is game is really really cool.
I can't really say much for balance because I only played one game but my friend and I had a lot of fun. My only criticism is that some mechanics should be explained or foreshadowed better. Being able to destroy the enemy's walls is really cool, but it kind of came out of nowhere and lost me the game because I didn't know you could do that. I think you should be able to destroy your own walls for consistency, more strategic depth and to show much earlier that walls are destructible. The discovery phase of finding new mechanics cool and fun, but comes at the detriment of the strategic element of the competitive board game, which I think is ultimately a negative.
Anyway, here is a youtube video of me and my friend playing your game over discord vc. We only started recording in the middle of a game and he forgot to unmute himself on OBS for half of it, but hey. Its gameplay. And its a cool video game.
