I found the controls a little rough. The way keys overrode each other was a little bit awkward. The four way was fine, just the way key combinations were handled could have been better. Good work.
But regardless, it's a really fun little Gauntlet clone with a lot of character. Love the voices and sound fx. AI is good, maybe too good! Probably would be a good idea to have an enemy # cap as well, otherwise that second level gets impossible pretty quickly!
Finally, as a fellow C2 dev, let me tell you - the sine wave behavior goes a long way into adding that extra little bit of polish! The menus were a little static, just some movement would have livened them up!
Overall, a very solid compo game! Great job!
Fun little adventure game.
I'm thinking either the player needs to be able to move and possibly shoot faster, or the archers need to fire more slowly/less frequently. There's really no good way to deal with archers without taking damage, especially when you're being zerged by orcs streaming out of a burrow (might wanna fix that typo while you're at it ;) )
Fun game, I was terrible at playing it, but it was fun. That second level though, a bit rough. I walked in and got pwned...was that how it was supposed to happen? Since the enemies just kept spawning from the tents, I didn't have much of a prayer to take them out.
Overall a great entry! Just needs a nice catchy soundtrack.
Nice game, I like your sounds, a little background music would have been nice as well.
