Sometimes it didn't register my attacks or it did register them but they didn't hit enemies, despite the weapon trail being over them (maybe I was a bit too close).\r\rBut it was very fun and now I have to replay with "Space" in mind, because I had no idea I can switch weapons. \r\rPotions could heal a bit more... But I'm being whiny and that's not very gladiator-ish."},{"author_name":"JNyknn","author_uid":"26965","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 7:04pm","epoch":1418065140,"text":"Entertaining game, but maybe a bit too simple."},{"author_name":"Bardikus","author_uid":"45211","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 7:06pm","epoch":1418065260,"text":"Nice 8bit sounds, decent pixel art, nice combat mechanics and AI.

I wish that the enemies had a few frames showing that they were about to attack so that I could defend in time. Right now getting hit feels a little random since there is not enough time to react.
