Really fun game and concept! I love the core of this game, and the large "dictionary" and rules.
My biggest gripe was having everything kinda "dumped" on me at once, which I think lead me to misunderstanding some of the game (for example, I didn't realize that the Text was the "spell" that the rules referred to; instead I thought that it was simply the name of the enemy. This I think could be solved by having the game tutorial you through the first spell casting).
If this game were to get a post-jam update, I would love to see a version where the player has a "compendium" that they fill out whenever they cast a spell, so that they can see what the combinations do, and maybe it could hint at what things lead to what other combinations.
Good luck in the jam!

How does your game fit the theme?
Instead of playing as a spellcasting wizard, you play as (the intern of) the god of magic themself, the one who controls how magic works in this universe.
