great game with some really challenging aspects but i have two things to say to people
1)the swordman is ruthless, yes but would you expect mercy in real war.
2) my complaint is that as long as u have the spear the bosses are way too easy.

Neat-looking and initially interesting, but beset with problems. The fights are VERY repetitive, especially the boss fights, which are...all pretty much the same (largely due to their attack patterns, which render most approaches outside "mash attack and hope you've got enough lives left" fairly useless). After trudging through a glut of easy fights, Chapter 5's difficulty ramps up startlingly, and frankly attempting to use the woefully unreliable ground-kill is tantamount to suicide.

Okay, i finally figured out how to finish off floored enemies. You have to jump and then hold in the attack key. The problem I was having (and I bet other people are having) is that if you aren't standing over the person you are finishing off before you jump, the attack changes to a normal jump attack and wont work unless you time pressing the attack key right before you land. In other words, you just can't stand too far away from the floored enemy when you try to finish them.

great game, but my only complaints are that there isn't good variety of moves to do (why don't you add a downwards swing that slices their legs?) and that Achilles starts slicing like a maniac and then suddenly stops. other than that, it's a good hack and slash and i enjoyed it a lot.

Another note about the freezing thing; when it happens it appears that the characters shadow/hit area actually moves away from the frozen animation. I'm not sure if any of that helps in perhaps pinpointing this thing so that I can actually attempt survival for real for once without being afraid that I'm going to get 3/4 of the way there and it'll freeze, rendering all my time wasted. Or more wasted than it already was.

Any one else notice that if an archer shoot from behind someone, it doesn't affect them. But if an enemy is behind you, you jump then it'll hit the guy behind you. Why doesn't it nail them in the back and why don't we get to either A: Pick up the bow and arrow or B: Have a bow and arrow as a secondary?

Man, the issue with all these games is that it feels like your character is out of control. He's randomly facing people and swinging in whatever fashion he feels like and randomly not finishing enemies off when I (at least try, due to that randomly facing enemies thing I mentioned earilier) to jump on them and not facing towards enemies I want him to face towards and it all feels sluggish as heck...I believe this has been an issue with many of the games from this particular developer, as almost all of them have felt similar so that means almost all of them have felt really difficult to control with any real level of accuracy and predictability. If there's some trick to it, I have yet to figure it out in any of the games.
You mean for kills? well Ive had thousands of kills during testing before it was on kongregate. So you lose :) I think a real test of skills is the "Random" survival mode. I challenge you to beat my score on that, which I will get in a minute....

you cant block any of the boss attacks and the instant kill thing goes away to quickly when i go to do it i leap into the air when i meant to stab the guy change it to down

This game shows an improved game-play for Achilles 1, but Achilles 1 just has better aesthetics even though it has simpler graphics, ironically the first achilles captures way better the minimalist aesthetics of greek legend even though it was meant more like a satire.
First game also has better sound, but I guess that's because he took some movie sounds.
Anyway, you did a great effort my friend, this game is more fun, yet that one other is more artistically transcendental and has that je ne se que(?) you lacked that has made me revisit achilles 1 for 8 years now.

Swordsmen aren't that tough. If they get close, back off, jump, and they should approach. Then stab them in the head.

Boss: My hammer has crushed many mens heads Achilles:I am not many men I AM ACHILLES. I wonder if he watched 300 that morning

easy way to win boss fights run away run back shield bash run away run back shield bash rinse and repeat till they are dead

it pisses me off when i want achilles to stab but he swings then gets stabbed slashy slashy
seriously getting 2 melee on you is ridiculous you can go ahead and use your shield to get close except any attack you use will be too slow to counter or they just boot your face

hehehe, the dialogue in here is funny. Too bad my speakers don't work.....an somebody tell me when Achilles' talks, is there some voice speaking, or not?
