Cool little game! It was a really good effort for your first game, here are a few suggestions though-
1) Looping background music as the game felt bland once the music track was over.
2) Some more polish to the gameplay, as I didn't feel the need to scale the objects at all.
Overall a nice game, do consider checking out our submission!

Great game ! Controls could be reviewed and polished, but i like the art and the gameplay ! Seems like both of us opted for a mage as a main character hehe would love you to try my game :p
Ty for playing and reviewing, I also played your game and rated :)
I could not get the hang of throwing objects. Either it didn't move or it move very slowly.
thank you for your feedback, it takes a while to get the hang of it but once you get it , it becomes easy. you can actually do shrink items in the beginning waves to throw them faster or try to throw them multiple times to accelerate their projections (if they are too slow). As you level up if you choose the invest a couple skill points to "throw force" you can increase the thrown objects' speeds substantially.
I really like the nice and polished looks. I think the campfires were the best part especially in the beginning when nothing was upgraded. Good job!
I love the vibes of being a mage in the darkness! My favorite part was scaling up the campfires and then luring enemies into them (even if I felt bad for hurting the animals)!
Hi, small issue, but you can’t press both “mouse” buttons at the same time on a gesture based trackpad, so an alternative control scheme would be useful :)
Oh, I never even think about that, ty.
It takes some practice, but I was having a lot of fun once I got the hang of it! I wish there was a larger field of view. Great game :)
Thank you for playing and your feedback, I'll tune field of view thing when i have time.
Interesting game, I enjoyed grabbing the objects around and using them against those pesky bees. Good work!
Thank you very much for your positive comment, we are happy you liked it.
