Fun little game at fair price, repetitive so play a little stage each day.
Funny game.
btw: fair price!!
The Endless Mode it's infinite ??
Very enjoyable game, my only complaint is the level cap of 30. Endless mode is great but I enjoyed playing to level at that point. when i hit level 30 i couldn't level anymore and lost the impulse to continue playing; that sense of accomplishment was gone. would be nice if that level cap was either raised or taken away completely.

Excellent game! Excellent music! Two thumbs up. Totally recommend.
Great game, but I have a few recommendations. First of all, it's way too easy. I had a few moments when I was getting killed, but it felt like death had no consequence since I could just restart the level. The final boss was kind of pathetic; I expected it to be at least a little bit challenging, but it wasn't.
It would be great if you added a harder difficulty mode, and maybe even a 'roguelike' option that features permadeath.
There seems to be a lot of potential for more content and features for this game, and I hope you intend to update it, or make a more ambitious sequel. It's obviously worth the $2 - I wouldn't mind paying more for a more fleshed out experience.
I get an error "Lair of the evil doer has stopped working" when i try to run the game from desura or from the .exe in the isntallation folder with the following output:

Using Win 7 x64 Sp1 with XNA 4.0 installed fromt he redistributable
The isntaller seems to have an issue, it says it is isntalling XNA 4.0 but it never did instead it installed .NET framework 4.xx and skipped the XNA Framework Redistributable thus giving the error i posted above.
Solution after installign the game (verifying the game had no solution it didnt even verify the files it seemed) grab XNA Framework Redistributable from here: Microsoft.com
Works for Windows Xp, Vista and 7
