Other than that, very cute game ^^"},{"author_name":"Oreganik","author_uid":"12485","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 5:25am","epoch":1355808000,"text":"Aw man, got so close! That last wave of enemies was heinous! So, on the plus side, gorgeous colors and artwork. On the down side, no feedback makes for confusing play, and the lack of any connection between the blue-hat witches and their life drain made it hard to understand what was going on. And placing the dragon icon at the bottom center of the screen, where the eyes constantly sweep past it, might be a good idea. Overall: I enjoyed it, and it looks great. Good work!"},{"author_name":"KWL_TW","author_uid":"18962","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 8:37am","epoch":1355819520,"text":"Nice character artwork!\r<br\/>The Dark witch is so cute!"},{"author_name":"berareu","author_uid":"15244","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 11:23am","epoch":1355829480,"text":"Your art is truly great, loved it!

Sadly, there was no music, but if you did that animation yourself I can totally understand.  Programming was a bit simple, but very crisp and polished.  I saw a new hero appear right at the edge of the screen right as I won, was sad I didn't get to see what she did, might wanna make that one spawn earlier?
