Love the concept of the game. The graphics are looking so good! Good job! :)
Thanks a lot :)
We are glad you liked it :)
The jump... well let's just say it needs development. I never got past the third room, just because of how inconsistent and stiff the jump is. There was a delay between jumps, and you had a lot of momentum, requiring you to do a run up jump to make the distance. Issue with that was that you'd run and jump to the middle platform, but have no room to run and jump again. If you did it all in one motion, you'd run, jump and need to wait for the jump delay before attempting to jump again. Overall, this was a very clunky mechanic, and the only thing that brought the game down.
I do think the game has a lot of potential, the graphics are nice, and I'm impressed by the number of spells that you can perform. The particles and shaders were quite impressive, how each of the spells had their own effects, symbols and colours was well done. The only reason that I couldn't see more was the jump, and I think that if this was fixed up, the game would be a really interesting puzzle platformer!
Yes we know :(, we didn't have enough time to fix the jump and submit it before the deadline , we already have a new version with much smoother and more consistent jumping mechanism that has no delay and doesn't require any momentum to preform it.
Thanks a lot for your honest review ,
and we hope that you enjoyed our game :)
Nice game, it has potential, also nice graphics and theme.
Thanks a lot for your feedback :)
we are definitely working on more content for this game :)
Nice and suited the theme perfectly!
Thanks a lot :)
we are glad that you liked it :)
I like the isometric style :) music I think could be improved a bit , but good job :)
Thanks a lot for your rating and feedback :)
Love the setting of the game, But the controls are very stiff, doesn't peel nice to jump and feels weird to move around, There's a lot of potential in the game!
Yes the jumping in this version is not very good, we already have a new version with MUCH better jumping mechanic but we couldn't post it before the deadline :/
Thanks alot for your feedback though :)
planning on expanding the game?
Yes we are
Nice use for the theme, really loved the 3d models, they are really well made and audio as well. It creates a good atmosphere. The only thing that bothers me is the jump. To do a right jump you need to start running, but the plataform itself is a little too short for that. And everytime you died you need to go back to the begining ( at least on the first part of the game). Maybe if you change the jumping mechanic and add more checkpoints, it would be nice. But a really nice game =DDDD.
We already have a new version with a fixed jump mechanic , we didn't had enough time to submit it before the deadline :)
but thanks alot for your honest feedback :)
and i am glad you liked it :)
I love the egyptian theme, graphics and the idea of the game, using different powers to solve puzzles! Platforming was rough though, I would work on making the character more responsive if you expand on the game. Overall, great work!
Thanks alot,
and yes we know the issue we already solved it on the new version , but just we didn't have enough time to fix it before the deadline
Thanks alot though :)
it would be really nice if you rate the game :)

Good.. Simple &fun
Thanks alot, this is our moto "Simple and Fun"
Great work, and nice idea!
This was a quite pleasing game once I to understood how to play it. Lack of the controls description made it harder. Also, I loved the art in this game!!! The cutscenes, the models, the textures, it all looked great! Overall, a very nice game!
Took me a while to get used to it, but it was quite fun after I did.
Didn't manage to get past the 2nd level where you have to use the green ability though.
Standing in the circle with the create ability equiped and clicking on the sign on the wall didn't work.
I have a theory about how it's supposed to be solved but haven't managed to execute it, and I think I should say my theory here coz that could be a spoiler
the game design the graphics are more than epic bro !!
btw i rated ur game can u do the same pls??
are u an arabic ?? omar ??
Yes sure I will rate your game!
And yes I am an arabic from Egypt.....obviously HAHA XD

Nice to meet u too Miro! <3
What a design and graphics dude! Maybe more menus are needed, but game looks astonishing <3
Thanks alot !!
You are correct it needs more menus, definitely in the works ;)
What a brave choice:
Isometric + platformer is usually a big NONO, but you managed to make it pretty solid.
Nice entry, you also nailed the theme :)
The graphics art style is so nostalgic and reminds me RPGs like diablo 1
Thanks for your work!
Yes it was a tough choice to make, but we wanted to explore new unconventional styles for our game.
Thanks alot for your great feedback :)
Enjoy the Game ;)
The art style is so nostalgic, thanks for bringing back my childhood :)
Overall a very interesting game. Great job!
Very unique to see an isometric game in a game jam, though I would not recommend to use elements of a platformer in such a game, as you don't have proper depth vision due to this perspective. Anyways, I liked the game, especially animation wise. :)
Thank youu for your detailed feedback!
I'll make sure to try your game today!
nice work
Thank you! Please rate our game
