This game is really cute and I love the sound design! i think the fireballs are too small to properly aim, which is especially difficult with the mages!

nice! Feels like a really solid overall experience, with a good amount of enemy variety and fun mechanics! I think the mages fire a few too many bullets (or too fast or too small or something) - whenever there was one or more of them it just felt like there were a ton of bullets flying around and it was mostly just luck if I got hit lol. I really like the sprites and the music is nice and fitting - cool project overall!

I lost at the boss, but it was a very enjoyable dungeon crawler. Loved the slime enemy's attacks, but I would cry whenever I saw more than one of the wizards.

Very fun game! I love the way you interpreted the theme, there's many different enemy types which is were really well designed, I found a bug for you though lol. In the last level, you can skip past all the enemies and immediately run to the boss room (Which I did obviously why wouldn't I). Anyway, I killed the boss and the 2 minigunners. But, the door was bugged out because I didn't kill the previous enemies so I technically won but not really.

Great submission, had a lot of fun playing your game.

Hahaha! 

I'm super happy that you made it all the way to the end!

In hindsight, I should have made the boss room a separate one. But instead, I just made it so that you could only pass to the "thank you for playing" level (the next level) if you clear that entire room (boss room + enemy room). So unfortunately you didn't see that room :(.

Tell me, did you have any issues when the vanishing enemy appeared? Game froze at all? If not, what browser are you using?

Thank you for playing!!

This is was my endscreen btw LOL, and no I didn't have any issues with the web version (I'm using Brave) I just found it kinda annoying that I couldn't tell where the vanishing enemy will spawn (or the boss) because sometimes they'd spawn on my body and insta kill me OR they spawn behind me when I expected them to spawn on my last location.

Yea the door there would have taken you to my special end game room lol. But hey! you killed the boss, that's awesome man :)


The vanishing enemies need some more work on my part :P

Very fun to play game, i really like graphics (mirror a little bit looks different imho) and actually i've just crashed after room with 3 mages, but still well done job!

Developer (1 edit)

You are right, after the level with the 3 mages you will face the vanishing enemy for the first time. This enemy creates a smoke effect and that effect is causing the issue. I thought I had fixed this when I changed some settings but it turns out that it only happens the first time you run that level, afterwards it runs fine. 


Until I find a way to fix this, whoever is playing my game, once you reach that situation just press [ESC] and wait for the menu to appear. After a few seconds the game will unfreeze and you can resume playing! 

Very sorry for this :(

Great idea using the mirror as a weapon of the game

Submitted(+1)

This was really cool! Great idea to have a mirror be your weapon in the game. Had a lot of fun with it and it was a good challenge but didn't feel unfair. Well done!

It literally just feels like you're playing ping pong! The Movement feels very smooth, good job! I found it a bit to hard generelly, but ehh, thats not important(im just bad(Maybe give the Player a bit more healt, or make the health potions stronger))

So much fun, the mirror reflecting shots is a great idea and was tricky to get the hang of!
