But the rushing strategy seems to be the best way of winning, with the Archer and the Knight I sent the Archer pick up the king and the Knight go on the tower and I won without fighting the ennemy even once. With a bit more balancing, I think this game can become something really nice to play with. :relaxed:\n\nGraphics are really pleasant ! :thumbsup:","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Hadik","author_uid":"1001314","time":"2017-05-01T12:51:42Z","epoch":1493643102,"modified":1493643102,"text":"Nice and polish graphics :) Your entry is good :)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"TechnoNugget","author_uid":"1003702","time":"2017-05-01T14:58:19Z","epoch":1493650699,"modified":1493679406,"text":"The game is really fun. But it seems like it's pointless to fight the enemies, they are way too strong and numerous, or maybe I'm missing something about the combat. The only way I could win was by rushing to the king and coming back to the castle before any enemies killed me. I would have one character stay back and draw the enemies, while the other just rushed.\n\n**the good**  \ngreat graphics and artistic style, and very polished looking.\ngood gameplay concept, encourages players for having good strategy\n\n**the bad**  \nin-game tips would be much nicer than that cheat sheet displayed in the beginning.\nnot enough variety in strategy. I think having different levels with fewer enemy spawners and larger areas would add a **ton** to replayability. \n\nI hope you enjoyed your Ludum Dare experience [:","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"npizzle1","author_uid":"1002628","time":"2017-05-01T18:31:54Z","epoch":1493663514,"modified":1493663514,"text":"It's a good game to play but sometimes to wait and fight can seem pointless as i was getting killed to easy.

Overall I liked this and it got a pretty good rating from me. It looks like a good proof of concept that could use more work on the basic systems like combat. I seems like if I ever engaged in combat I would be stuck doing that endlessly with no option to disengage and begin moving again. I think once that kind of design work is figured out you will have a great little game on your hands. There is certainly lots of promise here. One feature I would like to see is more boards\/worlds. Either hand made or generated is fine--I just want more opportunities to explore the movement system and find optimal paths through the terrain (which was a really interesting part of the ruleset).
