You. Motherfucker. The controls are great, the visual effects are fantastic, the level design is great, the enemies are perfectly balanced, the houses (I love the houses) are well done. That's it. You win. You're the best I've played thus far. Unity will want to advertise this LD entry. You get my stamp of aproval.

This is fantastic! Great art, sound, just wished the controls were more standard (space for jump etc...)

2014-04-29 05:08

It's wonderful! I love it!

Nice game mechanic, but quite frustrating sometimes to get killed almost randomly

captain_genial 2014-04-29 12:48

Wow. Great game. Awesome graphics, nice controls, complete package. But god damn this was frustrating at times :)

phocker 2014-04-30 04:24

really nice game. one of the best so far. really like the mechanic and use of the theme. great job.

thegreentie 2014-04-30 13:30

Those were some good graphics, music, particles and screenshakes!
Just excluding the fact that I died so many times for things I couldn't see like: that tree that kills you if you don't jump over or the villager that just explodes or the blocks that explode... Yes, I used the Truth vision.
But overall it was really good mates! Good job!

damrem 2014-04-30 13:40

May or may not have blue-screened my computer, but otherwise I loved the visuals! :D

danman9914 2014-05-01 05:55

Great game feel!

christinaneofotistou 2014-05-01 11:07

absolutely gorgeous! It plays and feels so COOL!
I feel awesome killing those ghosts! Particles, movement, player reinforcement (and of course music) are top notch!!!

mcburrobit 2014-05-01 13:27

gameplay is absolutely spectacular, kudos!

franklins-ghost 2014-05-01 13:27

Enjoyed the smooth controls and the space bar effect was a nice touch.

augustsnow 2014-05-01 13:31

Great game!

tifu 2014-05-01 13:32

Awesome graphics =o
Couldn't manage the boss, I suck D:

blockbot 2014-05-01 13:50

Wow, this is an incredible game. I would love to see a commercial release, I would buy it.

crocantidepollo 2014-05-01 16:07

Excellent game! The boss fight was a bit difficult for me though

demonshanker2 2014-05-01 19:04

Simply amazing...

solifuge 2014-05-01 22:57

The shooting and movement in this game feel really good, as does the music and visuals. However, the non-standard controls are pretty difficult to use, and more than that, your charge-up bar for mana is too short for the regions that you're exploring. Given how the game works, it effectively serves as a timer for how long you get to play before you have to stop and sit still for a while--since ideally, the player wants to have it on all the time. But this seems contrary to the well-established tone of the rest of the game, where you're running around using your powers to blast everything. It also makes the last boss frustratingly difficult.

The game looks pretty cool. A bit tricky, but definitely a good challenge.

zdonkeyx 2014-05-03 01:10

I love the spell effects so much. The graphics are amazing, this game has such a good feel. I was trying to speedrun it but I kept dying because I didn't use my power :c

secret_tunnel 2014-05-03 02:33

Really great-looing game! I struggled a little bit with the controls; I think the game might play better with a controller. One thing you could do to make it feel a little better is let the player press the up arrow to jump.

But really great game either way. Wonderful concept.

saintheiser 2014-05-03 06:47

Nice visuals and sounds, but very low theme implementation. Too standard, I think...
Not bad, anyway =)

xaychru04 2014-05-03 19:32

Beautiful game, very cool particle effects! I didn't really like the controls, but the concept was nice, I had fun playing! :)

romko_pidstryhach 2014-05-04 09:36

Fantastic! Very well done, great controls.

matt_j 2014-05-07 20:53

Beautiful, cool platforming mechanic!

tomvert 2014-05-11 19:58

The idea is really nice, but in the end my impression was that there was too much "fake" things and I'd die all the time not knowing why. Otherwise the game looks cool, with nice particle effects.

matthias_zarzecki 2014-05-12 08:31

Nice one! This feels juicy. Love the music and the gameplay

pinkmonkeyhead 2014-05-15 17:30

Particles

gfm 2014-05-15 23:31

Particles everywhere!!! But I have a single complaint: the boss battle is kinda... The boss being able to spawn over you kinda ruins it for me.

But it's only that. Otherwise, this game is great! It feels and plays awesome!

illugion 2014-05-18 23:45

Wow, those lights and particles are great ! I like the mechanic to see the truth, sometimes I got distracted and the game killed me so fast haha nice job !
