simple, fun for a lil bit. Theme is a lil surface level but that is quite alright. What you did here is still something to be appreciated :)

Submitted

Nice game. Just a simple addition of resource on the map made it essential to manage the positioning of yourself and the horde, which became quite challenging. I don't quite get the theme interpretation but I had fun anyway.

Fun little shooter ! Aiming is really satisfying.

This was fun! I think the difficulty scaled well and I liked having to be careful not to get surrounded. I used a strategy of trying to stay in the corner and shoot them as they were coming, then move away at the last second to get the mana. It was satisfying seeing my score rise faster towards the end. I got 2649! :)

cool little shooter game and the assets in the scene match really good together!

you also nailed down the punishing part for missed shots pretty well

Submitted

Thanks for the game! I really missed the bomb-em-all spell at a later stage. I’m one of those who confused the wand with the sword; otherwise, the art is quite neat. The mana system keeps you moving and trying to get to the precious bottles.

Very nice, I hope you expand this to have some upgrades like 20 Minutes Till Dawn

Got 10518.

Got on a little run there and made it to 6056, happy with that! Fun game, definitely has addicting qualities :D Thanks for submitting!

This was fun! Got overwhelmed by enemies pretty quickly :D The mana system is pretty good, I really like that. I would like to try this with more enemy types, that would be rad! Thanks for the game!

Love your art style! You did really well to create a solid and quality feeling game. However, the gameplay felt as if it lacked a bit just being the simple point and shoot for points idea. Also, I think background music for gameplay would have benefited the game much as well! Otherwise though, you did an excellent job making this! I could see it becoming a totally legit and cool game! Great job :)

This was a pretty good game! I really enjoyed it :)

This kept to a competently implemented simple idea, but I'm not sure it was the best implementation of "less is more"; like, even a low amount of ammo might be a better trigger for a higher score in a scoring system, since it inherently makes things get out of control faster and thus has that risk/reward push that is more abstract than "oops, I took a hit, guess the game's over".

Art was fine, but maybe the player could be a bit more distinct from the enemies & background.

I thought it was a sword at first. But it's a fun little game.
