the game seems to lag when i press shift (for the reason of the commands), this could be better, and im kinda annoyed by the fact that you can only have 30 untis, as i had like 16 workers at the first level and with that gone over the half of my max units.
maybe add a new building wich adds like 10 max. units!
that would be great! (if you d like this idea too, or have this laggy problem, then vote this comment up for the maker to see!)
This is a good idea =) Honestly one of the reasons it is capped at 30 is because I was worried that more units would make more choppiness. But one of the future goals is improving the smoothness, and when that happens, I think a way to increase the pop cap would be grand.

I'm liking it so far. Suggestions: a) Speed option, doesn't have to be much faster, at least 1.5X-2X b) more vibrant colors or shadier blockier characters to help distinguish them, nothing fancy. c) why the need to shift-click? I like being able to click on worker then just click on forest or mineral, or moving any unit, attacking, ie.
Fast-forward has been added, as per your excellent suggestion and its many upvotes! (See the latest news post for details -- I added an icon to the bottom of the screen that you can click one when nothing's selected, and I also added the "/" hotkey to toggle between speeds).

Not bad... Could do with some bug fixing and enhanced smoothness. First level I lost I got a victory message and then the game froze.
Love the writing though!
I've heard a few people say that about the victory message -- it was on level 1, you say? Very suspicious...I'll try getting beaten there and see if I can make the same thing happen.
Thanks, about the writing ^_^ I'm rather proud of this particular sprawling epic.

The game is great!!! Make it longer!!! Or some type of expansion and / or sequel! :) Perhaps it is possible and I do not know, but if not already integrated, as a suggestion enable the user a way to increase the villages population. :) Great Game!

Hotkeys would be nice, less time waiting for info to display, maybe have mouse hover over icon for much less time? maybe smooth out "drag box", it seems I get other characters a lot when the box doesn't touch them, but is near them.
Re:hotkeys, there are bunches! (Look in the Options menu, or on the hover info). Speed options are definitely #1 on the list of hopeful future improvements =)

I've tried to play on multiple websites but i always just get a black screen, please help! It used to work and i love this game!

Random fact I learned yesterday -- if you use Firefox and have an adblock plugin and are experiencing choppiness, it may help to disable it while running a Flash game.
No guarantees this will work, but I hope it helps someone! It's helped me with other games that were giving me lag problems.
Hmm -- what kind of unit, and what kind of building? (Horseman can't garrison, and only workers can garrison Laboratories). If you're trying [G]+click with a foot soldier on a healthy-enough tower, I may have some investigating to do. =P

I would rate it higher, as I love the concept of the game! But the game keeps freezing on me (and will only move when the pause menu comes up) AND even when I don't win a level it says I do.
I did. ^_^ It is, I feel, a unique accomplishment and one of the goals I had in mind when I made this game (to prove that we have the technology to play a poor version of AOE in a browser!).
