This is the best darned sword engine ever. If anybody must have a game with a sword in it, it must use this engine, or else have something totally new and better than this (though it's hard to make much better).

I concur, this demo if released today would probably pass as a small game, the sword engine is displayed in a single long board against a multitude of enemies. The sword and your armor are upgraded at the town area on the left most side of the board at the price of coins you collect from foes vanquished at your crimson blade, the engine makes for a pretty good length minigame even though more than half of the game is spent running back to town to upgrading your stuff and returning to the front line. As a game this would be a pretty decent score, but as an engine and demonstration it's a perfect 5. The engine is very well programmed and nicely exhibited.

The best sword engine i have ever seen. There is not only a sword engine in it, but many more smaller engines which give you the ability to use shops, upgrade weapons and armour, some realy well programmed enemies and also a system to show how many damage is done to you, or an enemy. if i could rate higher, i would give like a 10/5... but it only has 5 stars... :(
