Hey there, I am trying to get other to re-submit their reviews for my game if possible...it was deleted and removed from the Jam on accident based on a technicality which was solved between the Jam Host and a particular asset used in the game...please if you have time, energy, and/or generosity to re-saved your ratings/reviews for the game. I am going through and re-saving yours given my browser kept your rating saved data on my end...but it looks like I lost all 73 reviews and ratings from my end.... :( best of luck to you in the Jam
I gave you an extra have a star after reviewing my earlier comment and recollection of this game. This was the bubble shooter and it was simple and nothing new but well made! 3.25/5 best of luck to you
Good game! I like the controls & VFX. The jam theme is well implemented with the ability exchange mechanic. This is a solid foundation for a fun game. I suggest you make shooting click to hold because it becomes repetitive during long play sessions. I did encounter a bug that froze my game when the boss hit me with a spell. Not sure what caused it.
I like this game's control and the general feel, but i feel that at times the spells make it a bit hectic especially when both the boss and I have the boulder spell.
I think this game has a lot of potential with its style and Idea. the game actually seemed to work fine for me but I think it would be easier with less spells. I almost became the boss when I had four spells. This is also the only game so far that the bosses have been too easy, but I understand why given you are using the bosses attacks.
nice idea and minimalist style!!
I didn't really understand the trading feature -- I just seemed to be able to collect more and more abilities. The particle effects were good, but it could do with some sound effects and music to juice it up. I feel your pain about Unity bugs though -- I was plagued with them throughout the jam as well (╥﹏╥)
For a bubble shooter it was fun. it had inverted atmospheric perspective and no SFX or sound so that made it kind of boring. overall 3/5 for execution of something simple and yet boring
