Why are they repairing it with their swords?
Anyway, nice little game, graphics are decent (except the helicopter), sound would have been a big bonus.
Wasn't really feeling the theme, it looked like they were attacking the tower.
Directions screen is good, and having a scoreboard is great.

The only thing I didn't like was that I had to use the arrow keys with the mouse. On a laptop, so it was like playing left-handed. Nice background graphic. Good idea. I think I might have tried to kill my own guy in the beginning.

I liked the way the little men were animated, looked pretty good. Aiming's pretty hard though so it takes some practice :P

For me the waves also seemed to kinda blend into each other, there wasn't much to indicate like "Ok, so now its wave 2" and separate it from other waves kinda thing.

Aiming is hard, because the bullets are too slow.
