The simplicity is a good thing, and the story-telling voice-over that at least seemed to be responding to what I was doing was perfect. Some more variety would be great- different kinds of houses and villagers (army?), or maybe a way to go from the village to the next level which is a city with tougher resistance, etc. But this is a great start for a single weekend.\r\rBy the way, if you're looking for a better host than dropbox, you might consider the free Java hosting I offer at http:\/\/StaticVoidGames.com.
