Very cool idea, and it works well ! The controls are well though, I found them quite intuitive. The music is nice and sets the atmosphere right, well done for the singing! There are some collisions and some y-sorting issues, but that's par of the jam ^^

Nice submission and well done!

I destroyed a lot of my followers with my own fireballs ._.

I had fun though and great job on the music !

Submitted

This was fun! And I love the audio. Just a fantastic job. That a capella lightning sound was fantastic.

Submitted

That was fun!! Really cool entry 

Developer

Thank you, much love!

Really amazing sounds, especially the music- superb execution of the "A capella" wildcard! I also like the concept and the art style, it was fun to play.

Would have been great if you could restart the level without having to reload the whole game.

Developer

Thanks a bunch for the feedback! We’re all really proud of our hard working audio producer—being able to balance a full life as well as making audio for games isn’t easy. Thank you for everything!

Resetting seamlessly is next on our list of improvements after the gamejam! Thanks again!

Loved the visuals and variation in enemies. And, music is top-notch, made be think of some sort of weird FromSoftware spin-off. Brilliant.

Sadly, the spells did not work, but I see from the comments you know about that. 

Great effort!

Hey! Super appreciate that lol. Our music producer is amazing at what they do. I started seeing the FromSoftware reference when you pointed it out lol.

Since then, spellcasting has been patched so I hope you come try it again soon. Thanks again!

Background music is A+, amazing job. I also enjoyed the art but like others I couldn't get the spells working :(

Music and visuals are very nice. I just couldn't use any of my spells, at least not on the web version. Also there seems to be no way of reseting the game after losing.

Hope you continue this, the visuals and music are nice and moving around felt good as well. There is potential here.

Developer

Since then, spellcasting has been patched! Thanks for the feedback and I hope you come back to try it again! And there is not a way of resetting after losing. That’s what you get when you succumb to scope creep I suppose lol.

Visuals are great. For some reason the spells weren’t working for me? Might be user error on my part!

Either way, the music is one of the best for the games with the acapella wildcard, of the ones I’ve played so far.

Developer

Thanks! We’re working on some bug fixes. Sorry you didn’t get the full experience but hopefully you’ll come back to try it out with everything working!

Developer

It was not in fact user error lol, those were issues that have since been patched. We appreciate your feedback on it!

I was vibing with the music, nice work on that! Love the art style, but I couldn’t figure out how to do anything. Left click (and holding) didn’t seem to do anything, I couldn’t interact with anything at all, and when I let the enemies attack me it seems like I’m invincible.

Still an enjoyable few minutes though. Was sad when the music stopped and didn’t loop =(. I laughed at the big heavy knights that try to buttslam you ahahah.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! It helped point us in the right direction. Those were game breaking bugs that we’ve since patched. Hopefully your next playthrough is more enjoyable! Much love!
