Fun game! I really like the visuals :)

Developer

Thank you for playing! I’m glad you enjoyed!

I couldn't figure out how to buy upgrades or defend the castle, just kept dying and mouse wasn't doing anything. Shame as the game looks like it has a lot of depth, the graphics looked great!

Developer (1 edit)

I’m sorry you couldn’t figure it out. You have to circle the castle with your mouse moving right to attack.

Pretty fun, I feel like I quickly outscaled the enemies, but fun to see the chaos. Also had to stop playing as it got really laggy lol. Overall really fun!

Developer

Thank you for playing, and for the feedback! I’m glad you liked how chaotic it got, if I update it in the future I will defiantly optimize/balance the game!

Lmao, pretty cool little game. I like your messy shader and how quickly the chaos builds on screen. It took me a minute to understand how to play, I think you could just skip the ability stats to make things more readable and less "all-at-once" on the UX level. I'd also give the player a magic ability from the start so they have a choice to make rather than just drawing circles. Also, I was never prompted to enter my name on the Leaderboard, on loss it sent me to the title screen. Anyhow, I had fun defending against the onslaught!

Developer

Thank you for playing! To enter your name into the leaderboard, you have to put it into the name slot in the top left before you start the game. I didn't have the time to add a popup for it, which is why it doesn't ask you. Thank you as well for your feedback, glad you had fun!

Developer

Everyone there is a bug in the game currently where the purple mages arent actually classified as magic, and can be killed with only non magic attacks, and will resist any magic attacks.

It's pretty good visually and the castle attacks are satisfying to look at, but it does tend to hurt my wrist after a while of just spinning around. Over all good game.

Thank you for the feedback! I just added an option to use the mouse's scroll wheel instead, although it will take your score off of the leaderboard, it helps with the hurting wrist!

It took me a little bit to understand how to use me defenses. But once i got it, it was spinning hard. I still died fast most of the time but it was fun

Developer

Thank you for playing! I am glad you had fun!

that was pretty cool!  I liked it when it was in full swing and the bombs were coming out.  I missed at first where my gold was and what my first upgrade should be.  Then the carpel tunnel hit arggg.

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I sadly ran out of time to add UI icons for most of the display, which is why some of the UI is hard to understand.

Spinning to spawn swords is a unique and cool mechanic. Very serious!

Developer

Thank you!
