Graphically cool, and a good idea, but strangely passive game play.
The graphics were great, and there is the beginning of something cool here. Shame there's on end screen, multiple levels or goals of any kind. Overall though I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
Seems to freeze when anything is dragged. Clicking close to Spartacus moves Spartacus. But then it freezes when a solder escapes.
I'm using Firefox 3.
I'm marking overall and fun as N/A for now.
I hate to say it, but I just didn't have the patience to understand what the heck is going on.
Thanks everyone for the feedback. I just want to make two points:
1-Please read the instructions. Theyre not as long as they seem! At least read the 'instructions' section. :)
2-This is a html canvas game, and won't play well in older browsers. I recommend Chrome.
It's an interesting concept but I somehow didn't feel motivated enough to really try to save the soldiers. The controls take some getting used to, and the white positioning like clashes unpleasantly with the smooth glow of everything else.
Interesting concept, but it lacks few things... motivation, challenge, some polish...
Nice graphics but (like my game) not much "game" (goals, levels etc). =)

This one troubles me. I love it, but I'm not sure what to make of it. Your graphics look great, with a bit of polish, (maybe replace the waypoint lines with scrolling dashes), they would be fantastic. Controls are simple, and intuitive (once you actually read the first page ;) ). A few levels, a target rescue number for each level and some other obstacles and we have a winner. Well done!
