errmmm, I'm ashamed to admit I couldn't get past the first room. I'm click'n, I'm click'n and nothing is happen'n.

I can't pass the first level too. I tried all buttons, but nothing happens.

I updated the description of the game to make it clearer where you can cast spells and where you can't, and how the controls work. I hope you can clear the level now!

I did it! Beat all 9 levels and became the greatest spellmancer that ever was. It's got some good ideas. It is very rough around the edges. Despite that I like it a lot. I think it would be easier on the player to have alternate ability be a separate keybind.

The blue room got me stumped.. It's a fun puzzle game with good style.

I generally like the look of the game - it's clean and polished. I made it to level 4 before quitting, and quit then for one reason - the rock created by the rain/lava disappears to quickly, and the puzzles end up just being about rushing a simple solution along, rather than having to piece anything together. Nevertheless, I think it's a cool idea and I can see a larger game in this.

Fun mechanics, just didnt figure out how to get the rock up on the blue level.

Really fun puzzle game, although I also got stuck with getting the rock up in the blue room.

Interesting idea. Controls are not easy so a little frustrating hen you know ehat you need to do but have to faff. Otherwise nice!

Concept could be fun, but I feel the game is lacking some polish. The controls are terrible too (a 3 keys combo to return to the menu really?)

Interesting puzzle games. Got stuck for a few minutes on the right turn lava level, but it was awesome to figure out how to solve it

cool game with interesting mechanics and cool graphics like it a lot also got stuck like others in some moments. But its really cool

The idea is fun. I was lost in the first level trying to understand how to pass the game. Maybe it's missing a bit of feedback on when you can/cannot cast spell.

That being said, I went to the end and really enjoyed the experience

Interesting game! I really liked the controls even though they were very hard to learn. I also encountered a bug on the last level where I fell out of the map, had to press Shift+R to restart, and then I came back with like double speed :'D

It's an interesting concept, I've had a good time playing it. Good job!

Charming, but difficult to control

Overall a decent set of ideas and mechanics. The puzzles were decently interesting enough.

However the lack of audio feedback and background music did make it so that the moments of frustration while solving the puzzles was kinda magnified.

Managed to get up to the dragon though couldn't figure out how to beat him XD
