It is really difficult though. It feels like one has to be nearly perfect to reach the next level. Also the cannons feel a bit unbalanced because they can do the majority of damage. \rBut the "handdrawn-graphics" together with the unique sounds make it really a nice game to play."},{"author_name":"Blooperly","author_uid":"18930","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 3:59am","epoch":1355716440,"text":"Best game I've played so far!!

I think the only problem is that when an enemy\/trap is destroyed, you automatically select the next one - this resulted in me, for example, pressing space to try to activate a skull bomb, but the knight destroys it, and I instantly set off the next trap :("},{"author_name":"GeorgeBroussard","author_uid":"8631","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 1:25pm","epoch":1355750400,"text":"I love this more than I have a right to! The art style and your voice\/music track is - awesome. Could definitely see this as a real game with lots of levels and trying to 3-star levels, etc, like Angry Birds. Lots of potential here. Explore it! Would work on some of the mechanics a little. I had trouble damaging the Knight enough and some of the traps seemed ineffective. Totally fixable, though.
