I set out to build a prototype for an RTS player controller with a hard deadline of 1 month, for a game concept I've been poking at for about a decade. This is the result of that work.

This isn't a new game being worked on, or the start to a larger project - just a chance to explore the design, practice some programming, and challenge myself.
