This was really difficult but I liked it. I loved the little smiley on my spell. Good work!
cool game by a cool guy keep up the good work
That was fun, very well done!
Thanks for coming onto the stream to talk about your game, here's a link to the Interview;
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1869196837Thanks for having me! Our talk gave me some great ideas I've already implemented in the dev build!
Had such a blast playing the game! Loved how versatile the mechanic of swapping bodies is -- you can even use the dead wisards as body shields, so the game quickly becomes more of a stealth / action hybrid. Some minor bugs here and there, but nonetheless had a great time!
Thanks so much for playing! I'm planning on cleaning up some rough edges after the voting period ends; if you could let me know what bugs you encountered, I'd really appreciate it! :))
Neat game! Controls nicely, and I liked the idea of teleporting wizards right into their own attacks!
Yesss, destroy them with their own conceit! Thanks for playing!
Funny concept. The art is so cute!
Thanks muchly!
Nice job! Challenging in an interesting way to keep everything straight.
Thanks for playing!
Very clever game! Simple mechanic used very well. would be cool if the wizards telegraphed more that they will attack. maybe some aim lines that stop when they are about to shoot.
Funny you should say that, I just implemented something to help with that in my dev build! Hope you'll come around to give it a try after the jam. Thanks for playing!
Nice little game ! The fact that magicians can hit each other is a good idea, good job ! Congrats to the team !
Thanks so much for playing!
it’s incredibly fun lining up the little wizard fellas so that their friends’ spells kill them
Thanks for indulging in wizard carnage!
This was incredibly fun
Glad to hear it! Thanks for playing!
Very cool, the mecanics work so well together it's very clever. Very well done !
Thank you! :))
Clever idea with good design, well done!
Thanks a lot!
Cool idea
Thanks for playing! Appreciate it!
What an amazing game! Mechanically way deeper than I expected. The level design is really cool as well. About every new level gave me a new challenge as sson as I thought:"Alright, I get it."
For instance, I thought it was a little to easy at first, but then after adding the blue wizards that do not get killed with a green wizard in 1 hit, really adds the decision making you have to do on the spot. really cool game. I think this is one of those ideas that you could totally expand to a full game. Great job :)
Thanks so much for playing! The original goal was to have more wizard types that informed the gameplay, but I ran out of time to make the assets, unfortunately. Glad you liked it!
Bravo! Unique and memorable. This game kicked my ass (in a good way). Put some more wizard swapping puzzles in the tutorial and make the final stage harder.
Thanks for playing, hotshot! Noted on difficulty.
I like the idea. It would be easier to control if the camera didn't follow you
Thanks for playing! Originally I had the camera static, but I ended up having it follow because it gave me a bit more freedom in the level design. I think if I ever revisited this concept, I might lock it in place and mess with scale instead.
Extremely funny and presented with absolute clarity!
Thanks so much!
Love the concept. It was fun to play!
Thanks so much for playing!
