Maybe in the beggining of the game the enemies could come slower, because the player is still learning, but great graphics, well done.

Really well done! I love the art, and the enemies flying off screen were hilarious.

i can see Gandalf the grey on the oorner ! :)

Pretty good. Like the graphics and music. Nice work!

pixzleone 2016-04-18 21:07

Audio and graphics on point!

Feels great when the enemies go flying back. Also, the parallax effect was nice.

Very nice cartoonish graphics and a good interpretation of the theme :D I liked the parallax background too.

It's a nice but simple game. It is extremely easy make a mistep and it's hard to recover from there. Also displaying the score at the end would be nice, as I had no chance to check it during the game.
So well done! :)

The wizards are so cute :3 I also really like the music!

Agree with Hyoga-3D, a little slack on the slew of enemies at the beginning, but very fun, and very cool graphics

i really liked the music and the sound effects, also i just loved that you ran with a group of wizards instead of just one and that you had so many lives (it took a while for me to learn which enemies are what, although if you look at them while not playing the monster design made it pretty clear, which one is supposed to be which element).

The graphics were also well done and fitted well with the music :)

Simple and fun! Nice graphics and music.

Fun game. I could see expanding this into a fast paced rhythm game.

Nice game! Beautiful pixel art, I just loved all those running wizards. The only thing I'd suggest is more enemies, after you get the hang of which button to press for each enemy it gets very easy.

Slick graphics and a nice theme to have the group of wizards get knocked away instead of having game over right away! My high score was 1657 but I kind of lost it all in a row at the end.

varuns 2016-04-19 05:52

Nice visuals :D
Maybe slow down the enemies in the beginning. It takes a while to learn which element is associated with which enemy and key.

A bit hard at the beginning. But I specially like how you approached the theme. The game is good overall

knason 2016-04-19 18:25

Nice! I played for a while, I killed a lot of wizards in the beginning, but when I had 3 left I got it. After a while I think it would be ok to make it a little bit more difficult, I had to stop when I was over 8000 points or I had to keep going forever. It was a fun game though :-) good job!

I'm not very good at rock paper scissor games, but good graphics. The music was on the edge of being too chirpy imo. I like the idea of how the lives are handled visually by representation through the wizards.

imperialunit 2016-04-22 05:36

I enjoyed it. The method of using the running wizards a health bar was ingenious.

namrog84 2016-04-22 05:52

really like how this is looking!

mightytoaststudio 2016-04-25 09:55

Cute graphics. It's not my type of game, but it's a solid little entry. Good work!

mayank-technical 2016-04-27 16:37

Really awsome graphics really cool game. Bit hard to play for first time

qweentyne 2016-04-29 11:19

Very cool graphics ! The music and sound effects were also pretty cool !

Simple but solid concept. Sadly it gets quickly repetive. A little enemy variation could have helped a little. The game also felt a little slow after some time, the enemies don't come more frequently, and so once you have mastered the art of element-shifting, the game isn't interesting any more.

Very cool wizard-changing effect when you die. Good details (like the wizard changing costume&colour when they change element, not just colour). You should have a little grace period after you die, because if you mess-up at the beginning of a wave, you usually loss another wizard or two.

Anyway : cool small game, good job BarkingCat !

Fun Game :)
