LD embed is a bit rough to use since it has scrollbars, but the other web version works fine. Cutscenes were done very well, good job! Very unique puzzles. As a kid I would have loved this game! I liked that you could kill yourself and the physics were satisfying.
Nice job! I died by my own doing many times.
I love the intro and all the small surprises and detailed mechanics this game has to offer (like being able to push around the ladders). Very well done!
Good work! Very cute (until I blew myself to bits several times XD)
It took me 10 tries to get through the opening cutscene (which is entirely my fault :P). I really enjoyed the fireball game mechanic, and the rest of the game was set up well too! good job! :)
Cool little platformer ! Art is simple, but well made.
A bit too easy to die though, sometimes I just click and i'm dead without knowing what happened
I found it hard to get through the opening cutscene xD But from then on I really enjoyed the mechanic. The art is really cool and the controls are easy to understand! Great game!
@bry thanks for the feedback <3 also thank you for pointing out the scrollbar issue, we fixed that :)
Awesome job, it was such a cute little puzzle platformer!
wohoo! best intro ever :O
I died a lot didn't catch how to throw a fireball, but nice work !
You are really great! The game turned out great!
Funny little game! I liked the VO lol - I did accidentally kill myself almost immediately by clicking into the game window but other than that I had a good time, nice work
An impressive amount of mechancs - barrels, moving ladders, bowls-buttons. I wish colliders are more polished. But besides that - the game is really cute! Liked the intro and that fireball sound made me smile every time :) Good job!
Cute graphics! I like the opening cutscene, but it's a little odd you're allowed to blow yourself up while it's playing. The player had some buggy collisions as well, but that could just be me. Overall a solid entry
Fun and challenging game. Would have been nice if there was a way to skip the Intro. I had to watch it 10 Times other than that great entry :)!
I died a couple of times before I realized that I had killed myself with a fireball. :) After I understood how to control the fireball's direction, things started to be easy. But I still killed myself a few times with fireball ricochets. I really like the fireball sound! :)
Almost got softlocked on the last screen, by only having one mana shot left. Eventually managed to jump the ladder and make the last shot. Nice little story; the simple graphics were charming. I would say it felt like the fireballs were spawning inside the character, which led to plenty of 'be more careful' screens. For a quick point and click game, the physics made it more fun! Nice job!
The graphics and sound effects have a lot of charm. It would be nice if you could see a trajectory before firing the fireball. It might help you to shoot better. Good job!
I had the feeling that I sometimes died for no reason, when just charging a fireball, otherwise a neat game with some pretty art
I'm just getting dead every time I click or click and hold the LMB. What's the point?
Bit jank, but alright
Fun game, just died too fast :(
@denismarasan The LMB summons a Fireball. I forgot to disable this in the intro cutscene. You die if you do it there, couse the character runs into it.
I guess I'm not a great wizard. I've managed to kill myself during intro. Overall the game seems quite buggy but the idea and mechanics are nice. Good job! :D
