I loved the title screen (and the song rendition) as well as the art for the enemies! Great work!
Cute characters! I would just change the bullet size... I think it's too small, in my opinion :) But Good Job!
A cute concept with some nice mechanics :) I enjoyed the story and the ideas you explored with this entry!
There was a fair bit of roughness with the controls not feeling the smoothest and the gunshot being really jarring when the wizard attack, but there's a still charm to the game overall that kept me in
Good job!
Nice idea! Enjoyable music and nice sprite design!
Cool! Some interesting ideas in this one and cool take on the theme
The buddy system is definitely a more distinguished approach to the theme I have seen thus far and the idea that one cannot be without the other for too long or else they will die really sells the theme. :)
Good mechanic, that made for some tension on leaving it to trigger a button and be more vulnerable. I did have the dev console spit some errors at me, but nothing that broke the game.
Thanks for letting me know. I didn’t see that error come up until after the deadline but glad it isn’t crashing the game for you.
This is a really enjoyable game, I liked the simple and interesting mecanic of the firefly, and the puzzles are super nice, and this game being for a game jam makes it so much better, I liked the simplicity that makes it special
Nice game ! I got stuck in some blocks for some reason but i still enjoyed it !
i like the mechanic of the wizard having to be near the firefly and losing light when he's not. i think the game would benefit more from it being less platforming based and more on solving puzzles involving light and enemies, but that's just my opinion. it's a neat little effort, and i like the wizard's design :)
This could just have been a puzzle game but I like the fact that you included the shooting mechanic and the wasps that are going after the firefly. This brought in an element of tension in the game and I loved it.
It's a little hard to jump because you can stick to the walls. But overall really good idea.
I like the simple mechanics and the adorable wizard. The climactic ending was also pretty cool. And I loved the alternate title screen
Gun game with interesting mechanics. I like the cute graphics.
Thanks!
