Despite the questionable copyright, pretty fun albeit quite repetitive. Good job! I like the art.

Well done! I wish mordor had MORE powers... :) fire balls... lasers.. meteor showers... :)

This was really fun!

The graphics were stylistically great; it was always obvious who the units were meant to be, and the actual physics were really nice. I really enjoy velocity prediction so this was perfect for that.

Nice one.

Good entry! But mordor is destined to fall, it's too weak!:)

Hobbits are truly fearsome enemies! Their shortness is supreme.

Fun little game right here - The graphics were really well done. Some more powers would be nice, and damn when the enemies start coming they never stop!

The game is well balanced. The waves get greater and greater. However it wears out pretty fast, should have more powers

pitoum 2012-12-18 16:11

Pretty cool. A bit hard maybe!

Tidy game, but no strategy, just lots of clicking. Could have done with more evilness mechanics.

I have always dreamt of one-shotting Gandalf, thank your for that :D

atraxgames 2012-12-19 16:35

Liked the LOTR theme. Well done!

Grrrreat :)

Thanks for the comments, as requested by many, I added the link to the zip (no installer) and the GM export file with an extension .Gmz rather than the zipped project folder. Sorry for the inconvenience

Heh, I have a weak spots for games that go "pew pew pew", and the pews in your game were really satisfying :-) Although I must complain about your decision to require frequent clicking - My wrist was hurting after playing your game twice. It would have been better if I could just hold the button to keep shooting.

I liked the graphics. The horses were kinda bad, but the people and the eagles were nice.

It would be nice if your game stored the best scores in a session, so that the player would know if he was improving or not. BTW, I got about 1200. Not such a great score, I guess.

On an aside, have you ever heard of the book "The Last Ringbearer"? It is a retelling of Lord of The Rings, with the point of view that Mordor were actually the good guys :-)

Cheers!

Go Mordor, go! Kill these f@#ç£%& Hobbits! I wish I have an autofire mode, my index finger is totally KO! :)

Wow this is one of the best I've played so far. Very nice. Great fun, great graphics, animations and sound! well done! thanks for participating!

lonestranger 2012-12-24 05:45

I liked the graphics of the attackers. Would have been cool to have weapon upgrades or minions to send out, but I think it is pretty obvious that you'll eventually be overrun.

juaxix 2012-12-25 21:01

Wow, there are few really badasses like the Eye :)

epiplon 2012-12-25 21:06

So many Gandalfs...
But I loved the stylish graphics. You did it really good.

brotherst 2012-12-26 12:08

I'll try this later.. In the meantime, don't you think you rated our game a bit brashly?.. I mean.. 1 for everything except graphics.. That's a score I reserve for only the most broken games and ours definitely isn't. In any case some sort of explanation as to why you hate it so much would be really helpful, even if you've made up your mind..

Cheers,
Rob

Quite cool :) Nice work: graphics are good, and the sound works well. Gameplay is a bit limited, and when you start getting hit it's generally because you're overwhelmed so you don't last long - but it's a good entry.

goerp 2012-12-28 17:54

The eye is great and a good choice of villain. Also agree that the heroes are good recognizable, but the game could use a goal, that there is hope for evil to destroy good, forever.
Something like that. You always get overwhelmed after a while.
Not that my game had an end, I didnt have enough time for that as well ;-)

tehskull 2012-12-29 19:31

Loved the idea :) Mouse finger got a little tired as the game went on though. Maybe either try reducing the amount of enemies early on, or increasing the shooting speed of Sauron. All in all though a fun game.

FYI, you have to create all game content within the period yourself, so taking images like the volcanos and sky seems kinda cheating.

I can't play this game on my mac, so I won't rate it, but that's my feedback.
