How does the game fit the theme?
The player has to defeat the slime. Be careful though, use any spell too much and you might get betrayed by your own magic! The orb companion might not be that trustworthy also!

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The SFX and BGM. The main character sprite is from Kenney Tiny Dungeon pack.

How many people worked on the game?

Juicy and challenging game.

Cool twist, I was expecting a betrayal, but not that one. Nice subversion of expectations.

I was starting to get bored on my first playthrough before I realised that spells were increasing in difficulty as the fight advanced. This ended up being pretty challenging.

I feel like more spells would better convey the theme of distrusting your own magic, but then again we only had one week. Interesting interpretation nevertheless.

I really like your visuals and how cohesive everything looks and sound,  fine entry.

Hi ! I liked your game, especially the combat mechanic and work you did on the sfx. Your use and animation of the Kenney character and custom pixel art looks nice too. The combat mechanic with a timer to cast spells by inputing keys in the correct order in a short time adds tension and originality to the game too :)

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed our game!

Nice boss rush game!
I like this mechanic that you have to press key arrows to defeat the boss,

I think player needs more attack combinations and game needs more music and sound effects

Developer

Thanks! Yeah sadly we didn't have enough time to polish the SFX and add BGM. And we will put more attention into the attack combinations/synergies!

its a bit difficult but I think its just a skill issue on my part lol, either way pretty solid submission, well done

Developer

Thank you! Yeah it is difficult for most of people during their 1st few plays (even our game designer felt its too difficult at 1st)

The game was really fun, the boss fight was really challenging, and the spell system was also really well implemented 
Great job with the game

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, it was our intention to make the boss challenging!

Wow I really liked this game, it was well executed and polished. I especially liked the grass ability. Great job overall!

Developer

I'm a rhythm game player, I really like the concept of the command before shotting an ability.

Tho I always run out of "mana", dead before actually killing the boss, nerfing the boss health would helps a lot or a mana bar for resource management. Definitely would give this a higher score. Good work!

*lol, just remind the topic of the jam, perhaps this boss is unkillable even I optimize the game play.

Hi, thank you for checking out our game! Yeah, it takes a while to beat the boss. It took us many tries during development to beat it also, so it kinda made us balancing the skill and boss a bit off :(. But we are glad you like the gameplay concept!

Really cool idea and fun mechanic, but the boss fight is pretty long and the moves get a bit repetitive.

I'd recommend adding 1 or 2 more moves or nerfing the boss' health.

Great game nonetheless and fun to play!

Developer

Thanks for the feedbacks! I totally agree with the boss fight time and the lacking synergy between moves! Glad you enjoyed the gameplay idea!
