It was very fun but the wizard asset did not match the tileset in my opinion.

Developer

Yess I know, it's just I loved the tileset and the character, and as I'm no artist I had to accept it and move on or I'd lose more time thand what I'd already lost haha. Glad you thought it was fun!

overall it was nice to play and discover your world. e.g. finding the mushrooms or the walking tree etc .  ah man sound is missing but yeah keep at it! good submission

Developer(+1)

Tysm! Glad you enjoyed the world, sadly it was too empty and couldn't create cool puzzles until the end, or add some decoration and background stuff, if only I had the first days of the jam to work on it  i'd added audio and the map would be cooler :(

Really cool idea to have the helixes unlock abilities!

Developer

Thanks! I really struggled to decide that, and design it, I'm just a programmer haha but I think it turned out decently, even tho it doesn't make sense biologically lol

Submitted

An excellent and unique idea. I completed it. If Iyou just increased the magician's speed and added sound effects, it would have been better

Developer(+1)

thanks a lot! i realised it may feel slow sometimes, i wish i had time to add some kind of TP to the center or a sprint (but that would mean i had to rework most of the map) and yeah sound would've made the game so much better, but sadly couldn't make it :(

Submitted

Pretty cool game ! The only complaint I have is the lack of sound effects.

Developer(+1)

yeah i'm so sad for that :( I even had an AudioManager script in the scene with the sources prepares and everything, but had to fix a lot the last day and don't get time to add a sfx package, that would've improved the game a lot. Thank You tho!

This is awesome, the spell-switch system is really creative, great job linking this with the theme! I think the only thing missing is a sprint or dash :D

Developer

Heyy thanks! Yeah I noticed the map gets too big sometimes, the problem is adding a dash or sprint meant I'd need to redesign many parts of the level, so no time. Glad you enjoyed!

Your game looks like fun, but I was not able to collect the DNA-stone to the right and had no idea what to do

Heyy, I think I had a last minute issue with the layers and u can't see the canvas, You need to press E to grab them. Hope you try again!
