I always like a game with a greco-roman theme. A little bit on the loose side with controls, but otherwise fun.

Pretty cool style, here.

i like the style a lot, although the gameplay became a little to easy. I would like to have seen a motivation for letting the player move left/right (ie, a reason to ever move to the right). Good job on your first ludum dare!

Nice fast-paced reflex game. The game was quite big on my laptop screen however, and pressing up/down would shift the entire browser window along with it. I found that rapidly pressing W and S in quick succession can let my guys survive for quite some time :P Maybe like madlee said, an incentive to move around can add another level of interesting gameplay without really getting rid of the minimalism.

Otherwise, a fun little game. I love the smooth frame-by-frame animation of the soldiers!

Love the art, and the mechanics hit the theme very well :)

Quite fun, would be nice to have a score thing or something.

WOW!!!! Once I got the concept, this was an awesome game! Sure, it gets repetitive at the end, but it really is fun, and the art style is AMAZING! Games = art? This sure does! I'd love to see this played on an urn, or perhaps a future version with multiple urns, each with their own challenges?

Neat style, yay.

I liked it. The game moved way too fast, but it was pretty fun. Great use of the theme as well.

Great art and fast gameplay!

What a tough game. It is very hard as soon as you did your first block, as the changing of the enemies came very rapidly. So it was hard to catch up. Also the controls were rather hard as I had to steer with my left hand.

Still nice work. I like the basic idea and the graphics. Good job on that. Was fun to play.

Would love to see some goal or score for this game, to keep the player motivated. Other than that it's a pretty good game! Wonderful audio.
