Best game so far. The way gameplay and graphics were mad.. man.. It was such a strong nostalgy feeling. Congratulations with a unic game

Quite an interesting idea. The music is ok and the game style is cool, I remembered old browser games that I played when I was little)
Nice game :)
Great entry, very nice graphics.
So you have a squirrel and it a wizard squirrel who shoots different spells? Count me in! Great job guys, game is so nicely polished and the art is amazing.
Good idea, good game!
The art is amazing! :)
Nice entry! Finding the right combo of spells to win is the key. I ended up maxing the fire first to stop the mob + then spamming the ice
The first wave is super fast, making it a challenge to react from the menu, a countdown on the "fight" scene would feel better.
Not too long, not to short perfect for a Gam Jam. Congrats on working on a great entry with such a big team!
Cool art style, I liked that the main character is a squirrel, as well as the elemental skills, and the upgrade system
Hey! Good stuff! Love the art and vibes. The effects were very cool, and the spells very satisfying to use (especially lightning). I would have loved to see some damage numbers to really reinforce what things were doing. I couldn't help but feel that the gameplay loop was kind of "press all of your buttons as fast as possible". I think a few more restrictions on what the player can do would help the gameplay a bit. If the gameplay were a little slower, you could dial up the tension of cooldowns being longer, or maybe even a mana system.
I had a good deal of fun playing. Great submission to LD!
Nice game, the designs are really cool ! I chose the fire and the earth and i won every battle !
It's really fun! I managed to complete all the levels using fire for damage output and the green ability for slowing down.
Nice defense game! It got a little frantic at times, I wish there was just a little bit more time before the round starts so I can setup my fire walls hehe. Very nice animated character and responsive controls!
Definitely start with fire lol. I absolutely LOVE the art here. Both the cover and the gameplay art is so professional. I love the idea of the 4 different powers and their progression. Gameplay could be more balanced (I lost with ice blast starter:/)
I had fun playing the game till the end. Short game, but satisfying! :)
The lightning strike was the most fun spell to use. I felt the impact of this attack.
In the end I just used the "earth" and "fire" spell, because they killed everything, which made the game very easy.
A cool feature (maybe if you will work further on this game) would be, if different creatures had different weaknesses to certain spells, so every spell will be important.
I like the character design of the wizard and the overall presentation of the game. Great work!
The idea is cool, and the graphics are pretty. Nice color and sfx work there!
The gameplay seems a tad too easy. Just put walls of fire and cast ice while the walls are on cooldown, you don't even need the other two spells, everything with bow before your power :wink: Player would have more incentive to buy different spells if the enemies would have some resistances, but that does not seem to be the case.
Your cover art is just enchanting! Great work on the game :two_hearts:
There's a pleasant Castle Crashers vibe to the graphics. Takes a bit of experimenting with what bits to get first to get through the first few rounds, but I think that works well for a jam game.
