Looks like the most minimalistic Magicka game ever.

Awesome magic system, was a good bit confused about the constant red particles, I couldn't exactly tell what was happening with those ;-;

Ah that was a bug that confused me a lot, the fireballs explode off screen but emit particles on the screens edge. Didn't get around to fixing it but I imagine its something simple and silly.

Ah that's how it always is :P

That was awesome! I totally overused fireball, wall, and the agility buff. Darn those red wizards. Was there an AoE effect in there that I’m missing? I might need to play again. Keeping those spells on screen somewhere would be neato for people like me who can’t remember anything.

This would totally benefit from some terrain. I liked the spell casting system a lot!

Thanks for the feedback! The fireball and agility buff are kind of intended to be the 'bread and butter' spells by nature of being red/red, green/green. There is a little circle of fire spell in there but I realized it's implementation is a little weak and the damage values are rather under tuned. I'm glad you had a little bit of fun with it.

Great concept! I did get a bit confused when the controls disappeared though.

Good job on the spell system! With only 3 colors you got so many different powers, that's awesome!

The spell system is actually really cool, but I thought that it was a little difficult to learn. Once I got the hang of it though, I was going crazy blasting through the red dudes.
