This is really great idea, but my impression of this game ruined its speed. I thought, I had only 5 FPS.

XXMarekXX: Sorry for that, but problem must be on your side. It works totally fine for me and my friends (on full FPS).

A very interesting idea, I'd love to see it more fleshed out. I really like the menu system, but the delay before you could select threw me a bit. Fighting itself was a bit tedious since it was really slow, a few seconds per each side's movements felt like ages. Still, pretty good try!

Nice game I like it. No problem with FPS here, runs pretty smooth. However, I would still make the movement a bit faster:)

The web version is quite slow in chrome. Otherwise, looks like an interesting mechanic.

Interesting idea but it's really let down by the speed of combat - turns (especially attacking) taking over a second each hurts the game - I think speeding everything up would make it a lot better.

Thanks for ratings, anyway I am going to make extended version - with quicker gameplay, maybe LAN battles etc. - of Alert in Blockland and release it when final results will be known :).

Would be great with somekind of parry mechanic. This was also pretty fun though. Well done!

The fighting is too slow to be funny repeatedly ;-)

Like others, It is much too slow.
Maybe interesting with other fight moves (defend, charge, ...)

Only played web version, the FPS give it a turn-based feeling...
