Such a brilliant concept. The amount of different builds you can experiment with is impressive, which adds a lot of replayability. I unintentionally built a setup that destroys adjacent runes and still went pretty far. It is the kind of game you keep playing just to try and get the perfect run.
I’m already a fan of strategy-based games like this, so this one really clicked with me. At first I didn’t fully understand what was going on, but once the mechanics started to make sense, I kept playing and experimenting.
The growing magic circle idea is fun to interact with and feels rewarding over time. Overall, it’s an engaging concept that becomes more enjoyable the more you understand it.
I loved the rune circle mechanic! Watching all the purple balls bounce around was a lot of fun. I was doing great until all of a sudden I had to hit enemies that were 25000 a piece, so I lost. It was fun to figure out. I didn't understand what the percentage meter was measuring, exactly. Nice work!
This game was awesome! Very creative take on the theme as well! I played it about 5 times before it crashed on me. I used the consumable that destroys adjacent runes and it crashed my game haha. But I had an absolute blast playing this! I love how the game scales as well. Great work!
took me a while to get a hang of it and to understand what the different effects mean, but i like how bouncy it feels, nice job !
Damn this is awesome, I played this for way too long, some of the balance is a bit off (to me at least), and my health wasn't lowering when being hit, but those are very minor critiques, great entry!
Wow, this game is great! I would have liked a tutorial or some kind of explainer at the start, because I had no idea what to do, but the game's pretty simple so you can still pick it up pretty easily. Once I got into it though I really enjoyed it, I did think it was a little bit easy, but maybe I got lucky. Really fun game, great job!
