Well done !

Well done! The roll and projectile deflecting were extremely snappy and felt great to use. I also really enjoyed your art style.

Love the game! This one is the best I've played so far. The only suggestion I would say is to have the illusion fireballs automatically target the caster when you reflect. That was the only issue I had with the game. Was a really cool idea, story, and theme! We did an illusion game as well :) Except in ours you play the Magician

The art was great and I thought the dialog was really clever. It's just really good all around. Great game.

I really enjoyed that. The tutorial fit in well with the story and a nice little twist at the end. I also thought the entire boss fight was the first phase for a second and it was nice to be proven wrong. Great game!

Where do I begin😂
Great art, using dialogue for tutorials, the gameplay, enemies having visual cues, and that ending😂

Honestly such a great game.

The boss was such a hard fight making you feel so accomplished for beating it 😂

idk if that was intentional but I also liked that tiles that were an illusion were also different hence in the final fight I wouldn't need to also worry about where I'm dodging into.

Amazing work!

Congrats on completing the game jam! I liked it! You did a great job of fitting in a tutorial and story in too. The boss had a bit too much health, and the difference in floor tile colors for the spikes kinda negated the need to use the illusion revealing mechanic, but the mechanic itself felt good and fit the theme perfectly. 

I frequently ran into walls unexpectedly and got caught on tiles if I was hugging a wall. I think using a circular collider on your player character and making it sized to his feet might help a lot.

I really enjoyed playing this. The game is a little hard for my liking but maybe i just couldn't handle the illusionists tower!

Ww, this game was pretty cool. I really liked how I had to find fake vs real spikes and walls. Great job.

Hi! Enjoyed your game. The controls and collision were a little wonky. Might be better to have a few more gimmicks with your ability since, in the end, you'd just remember what is/is not real due to the visuals.

Really nice art style and sound effects! I like the idea
