Hi daydream

Unfortunately I am at work right now so I can't play the game but I would like to give a little feedback on the graphics. Before I do let me just say I am an admirer of your work for many years now

The graphics in this game just don't work for me.

Granted I am a 36 years old , and I was raised on Heroes of Might and Magic. To me the graphics seem made for someone 25 years younger then myself. For me (if I ware a target market) the graphics should be more on steroids and witch bigger balloons ( Conan the barbarian style )

on the other hand if you are shooting for the 11 year olds (and I have son that age)I would go with anime style , or anime-DayDream style if you like.

Looking at the graphics it seems to me that you ware going for post modern thing like Gish and it kind of didn't work

my 2 cents, (it is entirely possible that I have no idea what I am talking about)

I think the graphics are fine - very polished. Remind me of swords and sandals or Whirled. One thing that stumped me was after a battle there was no link like "click here to continue," or "click x to go back home" or something like that- whereas up to that point I knew what to do next

also a little storyline might be helpful.

Also, you should replace the browser form buttons with images. It breaks the "suspension of disbelief" that I"m playing a game vs browsing the web.

I'll second Mark's opinion. The game does seem cartoonish. Add to this such item as "chain breastplate" and the fact that until level 5 my wargod had to kill rats and bats with his bare hands, and replacing form buttons by images won't save the suspension of disbelief.

Sorry to sound negative, I'm probably just too old for this game.

Good feedback. Since this is the only non-graphical (not my fault!) related feedback I can jump on it.

Story, Maps, FAQs, etc will be added over the next few days as the technical glitches are fixed. I left most of it out to see exactly what people needed to know rather than just polluting the screens with useless text.

Added in quest/tournament continuation that will help with the "what next?" feeling after a battle.

Open challenge to see if anyone has mastered the game enough to beat my ultimate team.

New characters will be capped at level 50 with 500k drachmas, 2.0 ratio and 30 battleground wins. This is to test balancing at the high end.

Zeus merchant will stay up to provide the best items available.

My team is Stryfe: Elemental, Stormcaller, Cleric, Archer
