Really fun puzzle game, one of the most fun games I've played in this jam. It took some time to understand concept of this game, but after understanding it I really had to use brain power to think of how to arrange those gorbs and which spell to use. The depth of this concept is impressive. Ironically, I found the combo of token that heals you when a gorb is dead with a token that starts the game in infected state very effective, considering there's a light atk spell that uses 3 corpses (I don't remember the exact name of those tokens haha)

Sound effects for enemy damage/attack would make this game better. This is the only criticism /suggestion I could think of. 

Great job! :D

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, i definitely wouldve added more sound effects given a few more days haha

I played this game and didnt understand how to play. The rat didnt took damagde. But I loved the grafics ant the idea. But i coudnt fint the relation to the theme. And the audio was to passive. But all in all realy nice, but i need to know how to play Xd

Developer

Yeah, I didn't have time to properly explain how it works, but the idea is you have to cast the spells displayed in the spell book, otherwise the enemies won't take damage

Ah ok. Nice. I will try it out tomorrow and probably rank the game in Fun higher 😉

Damn, might be the  best game of the jam so far. Super polished, I'm addicted, but also relaxed. brings be back to the days of peggle, plants, vs zombies and bejeweled.

Developer

Innovative and fun! The main mechanics is really creative it did take me a few enemies to fully understand how they work but after I did it was so satisfying to emerge victorious :D

Developer
