    Really travis? I found it kind of annoying. The fact that i couldn't get past level 3 because of the dang shroud and short time limit.

    Nothing personal, Tech, i just don't like those type of games.

    Here is mine, i stopped working on it a while ago. It is full of bugs. Like if you try to load a game without having saved a game first it will just freeze. There is only three levels right now and two total areas. No weapons, no spells, no armor etc. Just stats that influence how much dmg you do and take based on enemy defense or your defense. I don't think I'm going to work on making it better. The code is just one huge sourcefile and I would have to pretty much recode the whole thing to make it more managable.

    Yeah, on v1.0 the game was kind of easy, and my one friend made fun of me because of how easy it was. So in v1.1 I decided to make the game a lot harder. Consequently I made the game too hard, and it's near impossible to beat if you don't play it on the easiest levels. As for the overall fun for the game, it's boring right now, but in my next version, I hope to change that and make it a little bit more exciting and diverse.

    Try adding some traps. And different textures. I see that every square is the same thing.That gets boring. Some good music. I am really making mod music, so you can use fmod to play some music that i make.
