I can't get the tape removed 😅 but good go at the theme!

Really like this idea, super clever! I did struggle to often get the tape to work correctly, and often I would write something that was correct grammatically but the wizard 'cast' his doubts on that. Great concept though!

Submitted

This idea is fantastic! I'm not sure if I'm just dumb but I wasn't able to get it working. I'd tape over words and expected certain results but the little guy just kept going up and over one regardless. Anyway, I can see the vision and idea here and it's brilliant!

You have to click on a word, drag to another word (Not past it) and release! It's a bit janky at times but if you do it like that, it should snap into place and create all sorts of new effects :)

Glad you like it though!

Submitted

Oh awesome, lemme give it another go cause the premise of this game is badass!

Submitted

very nice implementation of the idea! loved it. Though it was quiet difficult to get the tape sticking correctly. Also, very nice graphics <3

Submitted

Quite fun! Clever concept, I would have loved to see more levels between entrance and the extreme difficulty spike at 5.

Submitted

Awesome idea for real. What an excellent concept. Had some issues, but pretty neat imo! Thanks for sharing it!

Submitted

Incredibly cool idea and fantastic art!

Submitted

I couldn't beat the first level for some reason :/ maybe it's me though I could just be trash lmao. The art is amazing and the theme/special feature is perfect. 

Developer

The game is beatable, but sometimes the duct tape can be a bit unwilling.
You have to click on a word, hold and drag the tape to another word, then let go.  It will 'snap' into place, signifying that it works.
From there, it's just a matter of structuring the correct sentences!

I love this concept! The tape is very picky when being placed and can sometimes look like it's covering words but it actually isn't. The art and music is fantastic too :)

I did manage to make it crash too by placing lots of tape on top of itself in the second level (trying to really make sure the words were covered!)

Submitted

Very interesting gameplay and really nice art style.

Intresting gameplay

I LOVE THE ART STYLE SO MUCH! will play again after bug fixes!

Hi ! I love all of your game... except the bugs.
After the first level my changes did not seem to be taken into account, then I had a Javascript crash  popup unfortunately.

Developer

Yeah it looks like completely blocking out the second sentence in the second level will crash the game. Is that the one you did as well? 
Also you have to click on a word, drag to another word, then release. It's a bit wonky at times but it should work.

Submitted

Looks like a really cool game! It was however unable to pass the first level, the tape I was adding on the words had no effect

Developer

You have to click on a word, and drag to another word, then it should work! 

Submitted

Yup, I made the following text but he still go and die on the goblin:

The player moves north repeatedly The player can kill goblins The player can swim

Ah nervermind, you indeed have to click on the word itself, if you click elsewhere and drag & drop it doesn’t work, thanks!

Submitted(+1)

Great game! A feature to remove the last placed duct tape would be cool. So you don't have to restart after making a mistake.
