The beginning has to be more active. There should also be more strategy. By the way, *cyber-five* for also making a tower defense. :D"},{"author_name":"Jupiter_Hadley","author_uid":"27744","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 4:21am","epoch":1377576960,"text":"the offline mode doesnt work after downloading"},{"author_name":"evilDan","author_uid":"23275","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 4:24am","epoch":1377577140,"text":"Not bad, not bad.

Everything before that seemed pretty easy but that one just annihilated me. Decent game, could use a bit of balancing and polish but other than that pretty fun. Could have used a couple of unit types to mix it up a bit. Reminds me a lot of Plants vs Zombies. Also, Elves!? I wanted to play the Dwarves!! :P"},{"author_name":"fferro234","author_uid":"26574","time":"Sep 5, 2013 @ 4:19am","epoch":1378354440,"text":"Gets tough fast.

The dwarves were too eager to cut down trees to fuel their furnaces and as such, the forest is in danger. It's up to you as commander of the elven army to stop the dwarves and show them who's boss!\r\n\r\nDue to the limited number of dwarven banks that haven't been affected by the great drought of the Fifth Age, they can only afford to send units for a period of 10 seconds. After that the dwarves must economise for 15 seconds before continuing the attack.\r\n\r\nClick on the empty plots to hire Elf units for 75z. You can upgrade Elf units for 125z by clicking them again which will increase their firing speed and arrow damage.\r\n\r\nYou can sell units by activating Selling Mode by clicking the green icon. Enter Purchase Mode again by clicking the red icon.\r\n\r\nYou can pause the game by pressing the pause button on the top right of the game screen. Unpause by clicking the 'unpause' icon which will appear when paused.\r\n\r\nTry to last as long as you can. Your castle can withstand 10 hits before it is destroyed. See how long you can last!\r\n\r\nNote: Offline copy may or may not work, as it is not intended for offline distribution, in which case I recommend the web link. Firefox\/Chrome recommended.\r\n\r\nReport bugs to @AlexFiliUK on Twitter. Thanks","title":"Elvenglade"}
