The artwork for this game is crazy good! The gameplay too! Nice job!
Thanks for playing! ^^
ooh great minds think Alike!Nice game :)
Certainly XD! Thanks for playing!
Pretty art. The idea to pay for every action with time and being able to even it out by foregoing upgrades is neat. The game is enjoyable enough. Good job!
We’re glad you enjoyed it, thank you for playing and leaving a comment! :D
I am sensing a hollow knight influence! You master the colors very well, and the entire game has a very coherent feel. The game goes big on the narrative and is in it's entirety a very enjoyable experience. I feel like a very slight movement dampening would really give the game some polishment, but otherwise well done!
That is correct! Funny you sensed it ^^ Thanks for the feedback and for playing!
Nice job! This was a super cool game, and I really like the hand animation on the wizard guys. There was a nice variety of abilities and upgrades, and I liked the story too. The game could use some polish, but other than that, it's great!
Thanks for the feedback! We love the hand animation as well. We're glad you enjoyed the abilities, upgrades, and story. We agree that some elements of the game could use a bit more polish, but we're happy to hear you enjoyed the experience overall. Thanks again for playing!

Always love a wave based game, and this felt like it ramped up nicely without overwhelming the player from the beginning. I also really enjoyed the upgrades! Only thing this game lacks is just some extra juice :) Great job!
Thank you for the feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the wave-based gameplay and the upgrades and that the pacing felt good. We agree that the game could use some extra polish and juice to make the experience feel even more satisfying. Thanks again for playing and sharing your thoughts!

loved the art, and the implementation of the theme in the gameplay of it all. and yeah, one thing that would benefit this from is a much better soundtrack, but for what it is it's a pretty enjoyable experience.
Thank you for playing the game :D! And for the feedback ^v^ we will see what we can do for the soundtrack in the future.

the art is amazing and the gameplay loop are super satisfying! loved the idea of time as a currency too. honestly the only thing that would tie this together would be a more polished soundtrack, but other than that i loved it!
:D Thank you so much for playing the game and the sweet compliments! Glad you liked it ^v^

The hand-drawn visual style is unique and quite charming, and I liked how full and lively the level felt. Some objects, such as boxes and crates, occasionally blended into the environment and were not immediately readable as obstacles, although I got used to it over time.
I also enjoyed the variety of skills and shooting mechanics, which gave the gameplay a nice amount of flexibility. Unfortunately, I understood very little of the story because English is not my native language.
Overall, the experience was fairly enjoyable. I survived for around six nights, although I wasn’t sure whether the game had an actual ending to work toward.
Thank you for playing our game :D! The nights are kind of an infinite loop, so there isnt really a true ending.
