After all units have been given orders in this way, your army will have quickly and efficiently destroyed every enemy in a mere 10 seconds. There are many levels featuring 6 different unit types, each with it's own special moveset that work with each other in unique and tactical ways.

This is a really nice example of what can be done with löve! I found the gameplay very interesting, time rewinding seems to be a trend now. Which were your influences? Braid perhaps?
I had just one problem, although I could hear the sounds, there was no music.
Good game, tracking it! =D
I know the LOVE engine is multiplatform. Is there any way you could port this game over to OS X and Linux?
Just run löve on the .exe file and it'll work!
Open a terminal, cd to the game directory and call "love TenSecondWar032.exe"
