Cool idea and really great artwork! You should try to develop this further after the event, when you have more time :D

Developer

Thanks for playing! Pixelnpaws is great at art. We certainly might make this into a full Steam release if there is enough interest. 👀

Submitted

The MC is very cool! I like the artstyle in general. Great game.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I had the same reaction when Pixel first showed me his design, haha.

Submitted

Really nice game.

I use a BÉPO keyboard and the key mapping is not on their physical keys but their code key. So in the menu, I have to tap on the key where the "K" letter is (and search for it). However, because we can use arrow keys, no issue in the game itself.

I like the assets and the music. I also like the puzzles. For the platforming part, quite too hard for me not being used to keyboard, but maybe if their is a controller support I would try remaining levels (because we can go there directly without redoing everything, thanks for that).

Developer

Thank you for playing our game! We are looking into making some of the later platforming segments a bit easier, since this is a common issue we've seen so far. Stay tuned for an updated version!

Submitted

this game is insane, music, art, concept, abilities, everything so good and well done, I really love this game

Developer

We're thrilled to hear that! Thank you so much for playing!

Submitted

Interesting theme implementation! I love the art and the challenging puzzles

Developer

Thanks for playing, we're glad you had fun!

Submitted

Such a cool concept. The fact that you managed to make so many levels in just a few days is really impressive. The artwork and sound are amazing. Well done!

Developer

It wasn't easy haha, we were scrambling for most of the last 24 hours. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

eh we have similar game name haha. although your may come from incantation (correct me if i am wrong).

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yup, our game is a portmanteau of Incantation and Countdown.

Pixel arts are always a joy to watch. Add platformer with it and an instant love from my books. The puzzles were great! 

Developer

We're thrilled you enjoyed our game! Thanks for playing.

Amazing game! Loved the concept and the pixel art. The music is nice to hear too!

Positive points:

- Great pixel art, level design and music.
- Creative concept.

Negative points:

- Some levels looks more precise than they should be (or maybe i'm just bad at it).

Great game, congrats!!

We're glad you liked it so much! We are going to rebalance some of the levels, we've gotten similar feedback. Thanks for checking out Incantdown!

I loved the multiple uses for the freeze spell, which you often need to combine. I found the puzzles a bit harder than the platforming, which is just how it should be if you ask me. Great game!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah, most puzzle involve figuring out how to kill two birds with one stone, so to speak.

Some great puzzles here!  Just when I thought I was getting comfortable, the game threw me a curveball (the first lake freezing puzzle, methinks, with around 65 or so restarts). I plan to complete the game later to see how else you can challenge me.

Nice work on the art and OST; very suitable for spending many minutes on a single puzzle.

I thought the hitbox for getting the actions could be a speck larger; sometimes it felt like I should have gotten the item (the tip of the hat seemed to brush against it).

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the feedback! We will definitely look into smoothing out those rough parts for sure. The later levels get quite challenging, good luck!

Submitted

Too challenging for me, whomst cannot figure out how to platform (also, it took me way too long to realize that moving left/right doesn't use up actions!), but I love the concept and lil wizard! I hopped around the level select and it looks like you've got a lot of really neat puzzles.

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! Pixel did a great job with the wizard sprites, I agree.

Neat! Love the feel, look, and sound of it. Got stuck on level 3 because I'm terrible at puzzles, but had fun nonetheless.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you for playing our game! There is a level select if you'd like to see more levels.

This game is amazing!! Very clever concept and cute artwork, it's a great mix of relaxation but challenging at the same time. Very much enjoyed this game. 

Developer
