Just by playing the first level I can tell you one thing. The Hero's attack animation time is ridiculous, my army of goblins kills off anything before he does. Nice game though.
@b1015: Yes, it DOES show you how many lives you have left. Under where it shows you your money, there should be a heart with a number. That's your lives.
I enjoyed most parts of the game except the fact they would spawn on you. But if its gonna be kept that way, at least could you keep repair price the same, seeing how most people will be repairing a lot through this game.
I like this a lot more than achillies. I don't know if its the ability to hire henchmen, buy armor items moves and lives, or if it's just naturally pretty.
