General rule: Throw spear at spearmen and in 2 on 1 fights only.
Boss 1: Kick him to death.
Boss 2: From memory, kick him to death as well.
Boss 3: Block his spear attacks with your shield, pick up the dropped spears, and throw them back until he's dead.
Boss 4: Make sure you have a spear, keep walking backwards stabbing him in the face at maximum distance. If you miss, kick him once, back off, and keep stabbing.
Boss 5: I went very aggressive with forward swings that cut off his slow attacks. YMMV.

The bosses are too hard. If they get one hit on you you're frozen and they'll just knock you down to zero while you can't do anything.

Wonderful game. 5/5, but would be cooler if used more than two weapons and shield. And ways to gain extra lives. Other than that, sword fighting and using spears is always cool.

FockerSRNA, same thing happened to me, just walk to the left until you find him.
Great game, but the 3-3 boss kick-spam is NOT COOL (yes, I am mad a tactic I use all the time is used against me xD)

Visually very good, but the collision detection is not very good and the moves seem to be predetermined based on your distance from your opponent

Great animations and moves, no so great fighting. You either kill them with the first move, or you lose a lot of life. Bosses are too hard/normal levels are too easy.

To be honest Deej, I respect the fact that you're proud enough of your product to defend it as keenly as you have, bro and like I said earlier, I love the game's potential, especially since you put hard work into something that you've provided for free. Either way, I'm still playing it, right? Also, I never really questioned the jump deal. I still think that it could be much better but since it is YOUR game and not mine, you made it how you wanted it to be and at the end of the day, I suppose that's all that matters. Rock on, bro.

great game, could do without getting stuck between the opponent and them being able to hit me when i cant hit them but still an awesome game.

5/5

It's fun, and hard, but it gets boring after a while only fighting archers, swordsmen, and spearmen... There aren't many moves either...

I also got only to lvl 4-2... i just found, that if you throw your spear to a mob wich isnt a spearman... your doomed... agains swordsmans just block, kick, spear (not throw) and repeat... the archers are pretty annoying.... once i was with minimal life and an archer shot me from where i couldn't see him >.<

my longest run: level 4 - stage 2!! :( you guys managed to finish it! you rule!!
level 2 boss, is the easiest for me!! just block and spear him (don't throw it!)

BTW, I thik the problem wth the level 2 boss is that I'm not sure he can walk. So if he spawns to the left of you a you walk right, he will never appear. So if you cant see him, walk left

Loxie: I didnt set out to make an "action game" or a "historical simulation". I just made a game and had to pick an option. But I do think its an action game, and it doesnt take long to do a move, have you tried lowering the quality? If it is indeed running at full speed on you computer then I disagree with you, an action game doesnt have to be about frantically button mashing, and I'm not making excuses, I believe if I made the changes you suggest I would end up with a boring run of the mill game. Also, its funny how you then go on to question the accuracy of everything, maybe achilles would have been quicker than the others, maybe he couldnt jump over other people, in my game, he can. He is my version of achilles. Like in 300, they werent accurate spartans, they were altered to fit. Thats what ive done here.

To all the people arguing over the realism of this game as opposed to the story of Achilles- Achilles wasnt, er, real. You guys are complaining how unreal it is that he can jump high. Never thought to wonder if its impossible to be immortal everywhere except you heel. Also, its a game. Ben (DJStatika) can do whatever he wants with his game, and you can fix it if you want to program your own game.

Good fighting and displays but not really entertaining. I would have had a lot more fun if there were special combos or an RPG element (get so many kills to get new abilities, etc) , but it just felt like from level 1, that was all I was gonna see. Sorry.

Nice to see so many heated exchanges about this game.. At least it shows that DJ produced something worth arguing about again :o)
