What. A. Title. And the game delivered: I was a wizard in a plane casting spells! :o
It's interesting to try to balance survival with taking down ennemies, since the mouse-cast is limited and you have to put yourself in danger in order to circle around them. But I felt pretty whimsical, so I had to try to juggle between the two!
I really like your take on the theme, and the story you made around it! Great job! =D
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Nice and fun game with cool polished graphics!
I wish you released this on web so it'll be accessible for more people
Thank you for the feedback, I have experimented with a web-version but all of the shaders heavily rely on vulkan, so too much would have to be stripped back or entirely re-worked. In the future I plan to release more web compatible projects for accessibility :)
Very nice art and arcadey vibe, the polish feels incredible!
Thank you so much!
This is pretty addictive! Would like to see some bloom around the magic wand as it sometimes got lost in the chaos, and also spawn the magic particles a lot faster as they hardly had time to spawn before I drew my magic around the enemies. Other than that, the gameplay was solid and fun!
Thank you for the feedback, and I couldn't agree more! I was concerned about performance because of the limited testing time, but all seems to run well :)
The Artstlye is AMAZING and the JUICE AND GAMEFEEL IS TOP TIER holly. really put the particle system to work :) Adding a deathscreen would make it even better Can you also rate my game?
Thank you! Your game is incredible btw :)
Nice game! I especially enjoyed the "juice"-y explosions and screenshake effects when getting a lot of enemies in once circle.
Thanks for playing!
hey that was fun! love the art style!
Thank you!!
Nice job! What's the thing you're the most proud of with this game?
Thank you! I'm most proud of the overall polish and style (except for the broken pause button, but who needs that anyways).
Yes, it felt really sleek indeed!
Reminds me of Edmund McMillen's Gray Matter. Classic gameplay loop, I loved weaving inbetween the enemies. Although they couldve had smaller hitboxes. Make me feel like a real wizard yknow
Glad it let you unleash your inner whimsy, and thank you for the feedback!
Oozes style!! We both implemented similar gameplay loops for our games 8)
Thank you, I just played your game and it's great!
Phenomenal game, you two absolutely cooked with the graphic and sounds. The gameplay loop isn't creative, but if it works and it's fun, then it's good - 8/10
But c-word hard-r so 10/10
Thank you so much!
