Huh. I wish I could see where you wanted to end up with this.

The beginnings of something cool ... Many thanks!

Feels feudal

It was ok. Didn't stand out as a particularly good game in any of the target areas.

For constructive criticism: I didn't feel like there was much of a goal to achieve in beating levels.

Surprisingly fun, despite the not so good graphics. The voice was definitely a nice addition and it probably made me like the game much more than if there were no sound. I like how the voice tells me what to do at the beginning (although it might as well have also told me the commands). The difficulty is a bit too high. It could have used a hitpoints bar, too. Nice work.

The voiceover was good. It would have been good to know how much life you had left and some way of replenishing it.

Solid game. Game play a bit limited but fun while it lasted. :)

An interesting idea, but the game is extremely difficult.

Story is fun and I liked your voice. Well done, you put in a nice game a simple gameplay.

The voice acting makes up for the graphics.

I like the idea, but it's too hard. I can't get past the third wave of archers no matter what I do.

I liked this game a lot! Great idea and well done. I would have given you 5/5 on Fun, except that it was basically impossible to win. I played several times and never got very far. I cranked up the queen's HP in the code to 60, played a few more times, and still never got past the black archers. Finally I cranked it up to 6000 just to see the ending. There's a few things that I think would make this game more "fair". Maybe if you didn't start all the way back over when you die. Also, give you a second of invulnerability after you get hit. As it is, if you take one hit from the black archers, you can't avoid taking like 6 more hits. I even thought the graphics were pretty good for what they were. I especially liked the waving-arms animations when people got hit.

And interesting game, although not really the kind I'm very good at. I'd recommend putting the story elements in text on the screen as well as the voiceover, though. I often play games with the sound turned off, and this one gets very confusing without it.

Amazing how much a voice narration can add to the game! Great job! I also enjoyed the
animations! They really show that you don't need amazing skills for entertaining animation.
I found the game itself a bit hard (impossibly so) so I commented out the "You lost the game"
lines and cheated my way to victory :). Please don't name your game directory "PyWeek 11". Name
it the same as the zip file.

Hilarious, although tricky

a bit repedative

It is a bit too hard. But it made me laugh.

That was fun. But you can't tell how you're doing, and the sudden
exit when you lose is disconcerting.

FOR THE QUEEN! (Lovely story. Game gets insane with those ninja archers - I cheated to see/hear the ending.)

Hilarious! Thanks for the crazy game, made me laugh, and I played it many times!

It was somewhat difficult for me; I managed to get to the third level.
A HUD indicating how many lives are left would be nice.
