Nice game with graphics, sounds and even some polish.

I had some problems to "control" the companions, but I guess it's part of the gameplay.

Also I did not understand if the different mates I can buy have different powers?

Thank you for your feedback, Yes the boid movement is part of the gameplay. I was supposed to add description on each unit you can hire.

Knight - can summon protection bubble

Mercenary - swarm towards the enemy

Priestess - heal the king 1 HP per 8 sec

Beggar - give the king 1 gold per 8 sec

Very fun experience I would love to see a bit more variation in the enemy types, but overall a fun experience.

After 5 mins, the spawning of normal enemy should stop, and only the Boss should spawn, However all the normal enemy created prior still stays. And there is a bug whenever the number of object in scene reach more than 50 that the collision is no longer working. Due to time constraint I am unable fix that :)

Definitely a lot of fun -- The magnetic movements are mesmerizing. The music is really nice too.
