Author's comments:

An action packed game, with lots of enemies on screen (more than a dozen sometimes), pushing a little hard on the CPU of old computers. There is a FPS counter in the bottom left corner, with three buttons to change quality: Be sure to use them to keep FPS at least around 15 FPS (the game is designed to run at 20 FPS).
*** If you find the game too difficult, maybe you have not fully grasped the controls, or you still have to find the right balance between the various skills (or something else). Also, be sure to check my site (http://www.circolofantasy.com/arena) where you will find four videos on how to get past the first levels without a scratch!)
