I agree with the others that the AI should target the king and not the center since it is possible to move the king (or possibly fix the king in place on a raised throne or something?). Hotkeys for the powers would be appreciated too as others suggested. I think the enemy spawning ramps up at a good rate, but its hard to be sure since once the king was moved to a spot inside the castle but between doors the game is basically solved and requires no further action. I think with a little AI work and without the king this has the core of a fun little game!
