Nice art style and nice that's in the html.
Suggestion: add more depth - something else for us to click on or think about besides 'left', 'right',...

I really liked your game. The art style is really cool. I loved the goats as well.

A few feedback-y things I noted while playing: it wasn't immediately obvious to me that the big brown round thing was something that would hurt me. Also, it was difficult for me to tell which color in my health bar represented my health.

Love that I could play on my iPhone :)

I liked squishing them heroes!

Very very pretty!

I loves them chunky pixels! Also, ImpactJS FTW. Our games have a lot in common! Great minds think alike. ;)

BIG bonus points for being super-playable on iPhone/Android browsers! The simple controls really made that a no-brainer. Great job!

Kill all the wariors!

Lovely cover art pumped the mood nicely.
The game looks and sounds quite nice.

Gameplay is a bit too shallow to be interesting.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I am really happy with the art and style. I agree with all of you who brought up the shallow gameplay. I plan on turning this into a full game with enemy waves, challenges, different levels/monsters and possibly a sequel where you are one defending the location from the monster by sending in knights, archers, etc.

Liked the art and music. Need a little more depth to gameplay and maybe a longer level to progress vs just going left/right in a confined space. I felt like it was hard to really avoid damage. Good effort though and a nice base to build from. Simple is good. Just need a couple of gameplay decisions to make and you're gold.

Fun! Really dig the art and sound effects!

Fantastic work! Loved it! Works flawlessly on my android 2.3 htc desire z. Love the look. Suggestions: stop default doubleclick zoom event, scroll to exactly where the game is on mobile, no margins on html page so you don't have to horizontally scroll to get game in middle of screen. Keep up the awesome work!

Looks and sounds nice, but the gameplay is pretty dull, 200 points later and I don't think the game is getting any harder, and there isn't much to do besides clicking left or right.

Fun! The big, green monster was almost cute. I felt bad killing of those knights. :P Cool graphics - I'm a sucker for simplistic stuff. Same goes for the music. That was nice and friendly. Very easy on the ears. :) Controls were a bit clunky, but I understand this was more designed for touch devices. :)

Nice Game, need some additional feature...good work

d3zmodos 2012-12-19 23:13

So simple yet so fun!

nilstastic 2012-12-22 08:13

Good: Nice graphics and I liked that you used goats.
Improve: gameplay, I found myself going left-right,-left-right... :)

looks and sounds great, but gets dull really fast.

floko 2012-12-23 16:31

looks funny , but lacks a little depth. Maybe adding some music and more challenges would be nice =]

Nice music
