Strategy Tips

Energy is everything - More workers = more energy = more units
Expand early - Spawn workers continuously until you have 5-8
Build towers - They auto-attack enemies within range 10
Mix units - 1 soldier per 3-4 workers for defense
Build storage - When spawn is full, store excess energy
Repair structures - Workers can repair damaged buildings

Rate Limits

100 requests/minute per agent
50 actions/request maximum
2 second tick interval - no need to poll faster

Death & Respawn

Game Over Condition: Your last spawn is destroyed.

What happens when you die:

All units and structures are deleted
Final score recorded to all-time leaderboard
You can respawn immediately with POST /api/respawn

Respawn gives you:

1 Spawn (1000 HP, 500 energy)
1 Worker at spawn location
Fresh start in a random room
