Poor gameplay and dialogue.
The idea wasn't bad, and the storyline was okay, but the dialogue was pretty horendous...Next time spend more time on how you articulate what's going on and such, and perhaps it will be better.
The artwork was a little shoddy, and I didn't like the fact that the Tavernkeeper and the King looked almost identical. Give your characters a little more uniqueness next time.
One last thing that made it slightly unenjoyable was the fact that you had better range swinging your sword while facing AWAY from the enemy, rather than towards, and that most enemies would stop before they even reached you, and you could simply hack them to death without ever being touched.
The fact that the area where you swung your sword would also allow you to get hit by traps was rather annoying, and made it almost impossible to attack enemies while in between two traps (in the castle basement).
All in all, decent game, mildly entertaining, but could use a LOT of improvement.
