Nice little heist dungeon crawler!

I found difficulty in this game right on spot, it wasn’t too hard, but it wasn’t effortless. With this selection of spells you can actually make different combinations, though mana is a limiting factor. I usually ended up casting shield for the damage and bonking skeletons with my staff and finishing them with a fireball. Another tactic I’ve used at start was just kiting enemies and peppering them with fireballs, works pretty nice, but you run dry quite fast this way too :)

I didn’t understand if extinguishing a torch actually did anything gameplay-wise, it almost looked like you wanted to have some stealth action there, but I haven’t noticed if you can use any sort of stealth.

I missed my strafes and rotation was a bit on a slow side, I would’ve preferred it to be a bit faster.

Great job with this game, it played quite nice!

I got my staff back! This was a fun little heist and I loved the charming graphics, the spell fx were awesome too. The combat was enjoyable, the cooldowns reminded me a bit of an MMO type gameplay and I had to kite some of the enemies to not die so quickly, which was a good challenge.

The only thing is there was only 1 type of enemy and back tracking through the dungeon when you get the powerful staff was a bit of bummer with no more enemies to fight! Maybe a boss at the end to use that strong staff could have done well. Also some ambient music loops in the dungeon goes a long way for me even if they are basic.

Nice game.

The skill tree is unlocked from the beginning. Not sure this was meant from the beginning of your planning for the game?

I had trouble playing the combat when using up the mana. Yeah  there is some mana management, but its hard to use any mana that dont kill the enemy or you run out of health fairly quickly. Maybe I just never figured out the general tactics there.

I would like the controls to be a bit more fluent and responsive. I used QE a few times by mistake when i tried to turn around.

Really fun graphics! I included it in my compilation video series of all of the games from the Dungeon Crawler Jam.

HEIST COMPLETED Nice trumpets at the end. I'm sad I can't use this strong staff ;) .

The game looks good and is fun. I specially like how smooth it plays, it's important because in this case it means it didn't bother me that it's kind of slow, because it always feels responsive at least. I'm not the biggest fan of this combat system with mana regenerating in real time and (real-time) cooldowns but as you never have to wait in practice it didn't really matter.

Intriguing fact : I think the commands are implemented in an unusual way, as with my AZERTY keyboard I get weird behaviours that I never had with any other game I think. Q both uses a potion and turns left at the same time.

I played the game, died 2 times then quit.  It is a basic and simple dungeon crawler but it has all the mechanics and systems which constitutes a dungeon crawler game. I also kinda like it's simplicity. It's graphics are cute too. I find the movement speed is a  bit slow and the charater steps are short too. These are some of the notes i took about your game:

- Combat is not very well balanced. You can only kill skeletons with fireball, staff does too little damage. Also skeletons have too much health i think.

- Health and mana regenerates too slowly.

- When i hit escape,  i can't switch to fullscreen again.

- Lack of a minimap is not a con, there are lot of dc games without maps but when  lack of direction is combined with difficulty it wears out the player fast also there aren't too many markers which could help with the spatial awareness imo.

I think overall it's a pretty solid and complete game for a game jam. Nice work!
