Overall 3/5
The game play was simple and the characters were different enough to keep it interesting trying out each of the characters. Overall a good job.

Game Play 3/5
While the game play is smooth and works very well, it's rather repetitive. It becomes a chore to continue fighting for any long amount of time. Perhaps add some increment objectives throughout the game to move away from the monotony.

Graphics 3/5
The graphics were really simple and pleasing to the eye. Good job! However, it was difficult to immediately tell what everything was and what it would do. Perhaps if there was more color consistency to distinguish danger.

Thanks for your review, Riley. Working hard to get that up to a 5/5! : )

For those interested, new version will be coming soon with a lot of big updates, fixes, and additions. I've also recently recruited someone to work on the sound design for the game. Stay tuned.

It's only been two days, but I have another pretty substantial update. Finally, I've gotten around to redoing the shop completely--I'm pretty pleased with the result. Each class has upgrades you can buy now, (some more than others, for now) and the shop is in general much more useful, clear, and easy to use. Here's a full changelog:

• made rage text in hud turn purple when rage is full, rage meter jiggles when full
• made health text in hud turn red when health is low, health jiggles when low
• players now unable to cast spells in between waves
• player now unable to attack in between waves
• store has been completely redone
• health potion/rage potion cost now based on how full your meter is
• increased knight rage radius
• fixed being able to hit enter at the very start of a wave to see the 'wave begin' sign again
• fixed splitter orcs going haywire when assassin enters rage
• increased firebug range
• increased firebug primary attack spread
• added upgrade for knight to increase swing size
• added upgrade for knight to increase sword toss range
• added upgrade for archer to increase arrow damage, increase cooldown
• added upgrade for archer to increase sentry fire rate
• added upgrade for archer to increase sentry time alive
• added upgrade for mage and necromancer to increase mana regeneration rate
• added upgrade for assassin to increase rage time

Very fun. I get an error about trying to use a non-existing surface when going fullscreen.

Thanks for the comment, and yeah, I've been having a lot of trouble with fullscreen. It will be fixed soon!
