The blood slowly pooling was very nice. Love the colors. Wish that there was a death animation; losing felt very perfunctory. Did pretty well just by slashing madly."},{"author_name":"DissidentDan","author_uid":"25044","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 8:02am","epoch":1377503820,"text":"I think that this concept could work quite well, but there's just not enough to it right now. You can basically spam the mouse button and take everyone out."},{"author_name":"carlsommer","author_uid":"22891","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 6:03pm","epoch":1377539880,"text":"Great audio and the controls are very smooth!"},{"author_name":"Tavibo","author_uid":"25732","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 6:37pm","epoch":1377541920,"text":"rly fun game!"},{"author_name":"DaVince","author_uid":"25741","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 6:57pm","epoch":1377543120,"text":"Okay, this is freakin' SWEET! I absolutely love the theme you went width (besides &quot;10 seconds&quot; obviously :P) and the gameplay is a ton of fun. The mood on this is great; everything fits!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Now if only you'd introduce a more steady wave of enemies... They all come at you at once now so you get a big challenge for a moment and then some time to spare."},{"author_name":"ChrisGaudino","author_uid":"21246","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 8:00pm","epoch":1377546900,"text":"Took me a second to get a hang of the controls, but once I did this was really fun.

The colour palette is very pleasant to look at and consistant.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>So what I noticed is that a few strategy elements gradually start to show themselves. Firstly you can turn quickly by following the character around with the mouse, or if you plan to face in one direction you can put the mouse near the border of the window."},{"author_name":"kacperski1","author_uid":"17819","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 12:43am","epoch":1377563880,"text":"Good game, but get's boring quickly.\r<br\/>I love the smoothness of animation here c:"},{"author_name":"urth","author_uid":"285","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 1:54am","epoch":1377568140,"text":"I loved the Samurai feel."},{"author_name":"Xaychru04","author_uid":"16472","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 7:39am","epoch":1377588840,"text":"That's an interesting game, and very difficult.

A little bit of polish wouldn't of hurt though, like after you die the game just instantly switches.

This looks, sounds, plays amazing. It's criminal there's not better death animations (opponent blood should be pixel-y!)\/anything.
