I died when casting a spell, just at the moment where i saw the "casting a spell takes energy" message X)

The tutorials are perfect -- they reveal just enough about the game without taking away the puzzle-solving aspect. I'd love to see some more levels. Really great entry!

Nice gameplay but too short. Controls felt very good. I like your idea of just drawing clues right into the maps.

Great game but as being said, too short. I would have enjoyed playing more level and discover more spell. :)

Nice concept, a little to short, but the graphic are simple and it's fun. @adrien-dittrick Me too, I was spamming le spell asking why I'm dying xD

The graphics looked very bad in your screenshot, but in fact they work quite well in game! Nothing else special to say, except, as already said, that it was too short. More levels and mechanics would have been good...

But hey, that's the Ludum Dare after all!

Honestly did not think too much of this game based on the screenshot, but I was met with a pleasant surprise :)

Funny short "proof of concept". It needs more content. I like the art style, it remembers me to the old flash games. Also, I think that the mouse wheel will work better to change spells than the numbers.

WoW! Good job on it! So funny , The sprites of the spells, transformation of the ennemy. The second spell.

The trap at the beggining when you cast 1.000 spell and just die...

Nice concept! But so bad this is to short!

drmargarido 2017-08-02 21:03

Good job, your game got a really nice gameplay!

Not bad. I took me some time to figure out how to activate the portal in "Level 1". I had to look up the level image in the Github repository. I liked the in-game texts to provide hints and a tutorial.

I would love to have more levels.

I would also be interested in a writeup in how you implemented the levels out from the image. Especially how it works to walk on the brown ground.

Short but great! The idea is simple and is working, graphics are funny, and not annoying to play with. The spells and key idea is good, it makes me think of speedruns, where you have to optimize every move to not waste time.

I enjoyed playing the beginning and would definitely like to see more! :D

It's a little short, but you obviously take time to make the arts, and as short as it is, it's challenging. And I like the animals spawing random while launching spells : it's useless but funny :D

Being short and not having sound, it did feel like an incomplete experience. But I liked what you did have!

The art style is nice and I particularly liked the animation on the main character. Controls were responsive and felt good.

Would have played more if it was there! Nice work.

Pretty neat. I wish it was longer, I was looking forward to the final confrontation 🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂🏂

Well made! The animation is really good, and the controls are very snappy. I WTF'ed when I changed the zombies into pigs (which is a good thing). Smart move to include the tutorial into the levels, this made the experience much more seamless. Missed (at least some) sound effects, but overall this is a very good entry!

pedro-cipriano 2017-08-07 16:12

Nice game! Fast paced. I hope next time you have time for few more levels.

bartol44 2017-08-07 21:53

Vim. Jesus Christ, you did it in vim? Guys he made it from scratch in vim, that's something worth admiring xD On a serious note, game is easy, short, straightforward and pleasant. Tutorials were cool. Maybe making more levels instead of skins would be better idea. And well, maybe chosing some other tool to create game would allow you to create much more vast world.

Too short! The animation is really great and well done including tutorial level.
