I couldn't get it to work at first because I didn't realize you needed to download both files. Next time you should zip them up. :) Once it worked, I had some fun with it, but it was really hard keeping my guards alive since the enemies appeared so fast and my guy moved slow. Overall though, fun game! :)

Oh the other soldiers are supposed to be defeated since in the historical context the initial British army was defeated then the western confederacy (multiple native tribes) soldiers fought off the American's for over an hour until reinforcements came

Good job on the sound and the stickmen have a certain charm. I had trouble seeing the bullets at first and wondered why the attackers were dropping.

Could do with a bit of variety - maybe some obstacles or control over the defenders volley?

Good choice of music too.  Go Canada!

Thanks! I was impressed how much I could do in just one day (my other game took like 2 months)
