good, but laggy
the game is very nice, but it's really laggy. As some people before me have said after a couple of seconds in a level the game start to lag. But all by all a good game

LIKE KILLJOY GOOD IDEA/GRAPHICS BUT LAG/GLITCHY
Well, the game is too graphics intensive. There wasn't an option to lower the detail or anything. 1.8 MB for one level is too much.
It began to lag after 9 second of actual gameplay, even without the background. Simply put, I couldn't finish the level even if I wanted to because the damned thing would lag and all of a sudden, a Kite would be at the treasure. Most likely, your pictures completely kill processors. If 2 processors going at 1.66ghz, and 4 gb of ram cannot handle this game, I seriously doubt other computers could.
The gameplay is also a bit limited, no offense but it plays like those space defense where you try to help the planet. Gah! 4 weapons with limited upgrades? At most that would be 4 x (4x N) types of weapons.
I will wait until the final version before I judge it completely, but I hope for more weapons, more situations, less graphic intensive sprites, more image/memory use control.
Very nice
Audio/Graphics: It was excellent. Very smooth. The graphics were very consistant as were the sound. No complaints here.
Gameplay: A little to be desired. Sometimes when moving from one side of the circle to the opposite side and trying to fire it would go sideways. I have to suggest looking into that. Otherwise the gameplay was very smooth and straightforward.
Game Features: Needs more types of weapons and upgrades. But for what it has it is excellent. They work well with the plot.
All in all this is a really good game. I can't wait for the full version.
Very nice
I enjyoed the music and the spirtes, something really Secret of Mana to it...maybe thats why it seemed really nice. Otherwise a really nice dmeo, can't wait for the full version. Keep up the good work.
Could have been fun.
As it is, it's essentially just a poor man's Clash and Slash.
Notable problems:
That "hah!" shout is really goddamn annoying
The framerate is really poor. Higher weapon speeds result in lower accuracy because the projectiles are going /through/ enemies. You have to be screwing something up because sprites shouldn't be graphic-intensive. o.O
Weapon imbalance. As near as I can tell, the javelin is completely useless.
