Neat little puzzler! nice to see a pico-8 game.
Very nice, makes me think of Vlambeer. Good juice, fun to play.
Neat idea! Enjoyable to control. It was very easy, I feel like it could use spikes, bigger pentagrams, or slow-moving boxes, or something to make it more of a challenge. I would like to see it developed farther! Nicely done.
Wow, the scope of this game is incredible. Interesting level design, loads of polish, pretty amazing! The controls for switching powers were awkward on the keyboard, but overall great jam game.
Fun, nice graphics, it's nice to see a pico-8 title!
Fun, polished game, The deck building seems like a great addition to a tower defense game.
very nice production value overall - excellent art and sound. Not super fun gameplay, but everything else is top notch.
Nice game! I enjoyed watching the little guys fight. I only used the "set all" commands, and the same pattern (one wave of warriors, one wave of healers, then all archers until the end) beat every level I played, so some variation/balancing is probably needed. Overall, I had fun.
It's nice to look at, and ambitious. Ultimately it seems too unfairly hard, but does feel exactly like a retro arcade game - both the good and bad aspects.
I'm getting the same issue as @deformhead on Firefox. When I run it in Brave, I can start the game, but clicking the card to the right makes the whole screen go blank.
REALLY GREAT art, fantastic. Click to speed up text would be great, it's very slow. Good sense of humor, solid adventure game!
Excellent! Probably my favorite I've played in this jam. I wish it was keyboard controls, but other than that it's fun, deep (for a jam game) and good art. Well done!
Nice game! I like the animations, and it's got a lot of good juice, and some nice tricky gameplay. Well done!
Super duper fun art, neat little toy. I wish there was a goal besides just see what all the combinations are, but the art definitely makes is worth playing with! :)
I spent too long figuring out how to turn the pages. :D Interesting idea, not my type of game generally, but clearly a lot of work went into it. Nice art, polish, good job.
Problem with respawning right into the portals and losing all lives- some invincibility frames would be great. Otherwise, good art, cool concept, very neat innovative concept, great game!
Very rough and janky, but a really cool idea!
Cool idea! Runs very poorly on my mac so I can't rate it fairly.
Summoned with a summoning circle that looked like a squashed potato. Welcome to game jamming.
Thanks for all the kind reviews everyone! @patatenouille Nicely done, I'm sure it's necromancy. But how can you make the tea-swilling fellow leave you alone forever?
Very cool idea, nice puzzles. I would love to see it developed further.
Very nice! Fun to puzzle out. Felt like playing Obra Din!
Beautiful, nice art, but pretty difficult to understand and play.
Great music, best I've heard this jam, I think. Overall a pretty bare-bones experience, would be nice if it weren't so floaty and difficult to control - a little more friction would be nice I think. Well done!
Nice! Polished and fun - I like it. The doors could be faster though - also nice if they stayed open after you'd opened them once. Overall a very solid jam game.
