You are Sauron and you have to face the army of humans, hobbits, wizards and eagles that are coming to destroy you! Take careful aim and fire, let them explode in a cloud of blood! YOU ARE THE AWESOME VILLAIN!
[CONTROLS] Navigate the menu - Arrows and Enter to confirm. In the game - Aim with the mouse and shoot with the left mouse button. ---------------- [ADDED CONTROLS IN V2.0 - POSTCOMPO] - Auto fire (no need to spam the left mouse button) + Highscore board implemented (Each player can challenge your friends at home or, as I do, work colleagues) + Spells: Added 4 spells: 3 unlockable to the score of 650/2000/4500. - [D] Spell 1: Arrows (orc archers will shoot two arrows to hit the eagles coming from above) - [F] Spell 2: Trolls (2 large trolls come out from the tower that will kill the first 10 enemy units that will be on their way) - [G] Spell 3: Meteors (A meteor shower will wipe out a large number of incoming enemies) - [H] Spell 4: Heal (The tower will regenerate 30% of his life)
The graphics were stylistically great; it was always obvious who the units were meant to be, and the actual physics were really nice. I really enjoy velocity prediction so this was perfect for that.
Fun little game right here - The graphics were really well done. Some more powers would be nice, and damn when the enemies start coming they never stop!
Thanks for the comments, as requested by many, I added the link to the zip (no installer) and the GM export file with an extension .Gmz rather than the zipped project folder. Sorry for the inconvenience
Heh, I have a weak spots for games that go "pew pew pew", and the pews in your game were really satisfying :-) Although I must complain about your decision to require frequent clicking - My wrist was hurting after playing your game twice. It would have been better if I could just hold the button to keep shooting.
I liked the graphics. The horses were kinda bad, but the people and the eagles were nice.
It would be nice if your game stored the best scores in a session, so that the player would know if he was improving or not. BTW, I got about 1200. Not such a great score, I guess.
On an aside, have you ever heard of the book "The Last Ringbearer"? It is a retelling of Lord of The Rings, with the point of view that Mordor were actually the good guys :-)
I liked the graphics of the attackers. Would have been cool to have weapon upgrades or minions to send out, but I think it is pretty obvious that you'll eventually be overrun.
I'll try this later.. In the meantime, don't you think you rated our game a bit brashly?.. I mean.. 1 for everything except graphics.. That's a score I reserve for only the most broken games and ours definitely isn't. In any case some sort of explanation as to why you hate it so much would be really helpful, even if you've made up your mind..
Quite cool :) Nice work: graphics are good, and the sound works well. Gameplay is a bit limited, and when you start getting hit it's generally because you're overwhelmed so you don't last long - but it's a good entry.
The eye is great and a good choice of villain. Also agree that the heroes are good recognizable, but the game could use a goal, that there is hope for evil to destroy good, forever. Something like that. You always get overwhelmed after a while. Not that my game had an end, I didnt have enough time for that as well ;-)
Loved the idea :) Mouse finger got a little tired as the game went on though. Maybe either try reducing the amount of enemies early on, or increasing the shooting speed of Sauron. All in all though a fun game.

Nice one.

Cheers!
But I loved the stylish graphics. You did it really good.
Cheers,

I can't play this game on my mac, so I won't rate it, but that's my feedback.
