Good little game, would love to see more levels for this.
Thanks for playing! I definitely plan on making more levels. :)
very original)
Thanks for checking it out!
I did not partake in the game jam, but still testing a bit! :)
Small review / Semi on-the-fly comments:
Aaaaah, I discovered Chip’s Challenge only very recently (through a French video game channel/school called Gamecodeur), and since said game was said to have icy tiles as a mechanic, yours made me think of it! Glad I managed to get that. :)
The concept is remotely (?) reminiscent of Fire ’n Ice, too; I never played it and know only little about the game, but it also uses tile-based creating and destroying of ice blocks.
I noticed I never really needed the ice spell (and never used it, actually!), which is certainly linked to this. I think level 2 demonstrates how the gust spell is useful, while level 3 demonstrates how the sun spell is. Another level based on the ice spell would have been great to show all the mechanics! I wonder if you can send the enemies into trouble by getting them upon spikes, by the way…
Takeaway: the concept is great and totally fits the theme. Some details are a bit rough out of lack of time (non-interpolating movement and no sound), but all of this is non-vital and should be implementable easily. Also, this is clearly an extendable game, both in the number of levels and in its mechanics (more enemy types, more tile types, etc.)!
A good prototype basis for a puzzle game, nice work. :)
I appreciate the thorough review!
Can't believe i missed adding space in the description, whoops! I definitely should change the keys so they are together too.
I love that you got the levels were meant to learn progression. Level 1 for movement, level 2 for Gust, Level 3 for Sun.
The Sleet spell was meant for a (not implemented) "Tough" enemy that could not be pushed with Gust, and would have to be tricked into sliding into Spikes to defeat. (It also has second optional use as a speed running tactic by sliding over your own ice. :))
Thanks for the answer! So my idea of throwing enemies towards spikes was not completely off-track, after all. ;) I do not know if you plan on extending the game, but if you do, do no hesitate to notify me. :)
PS: should have read before saying. XD ‘I definitely plan on making more levels. :)’ Great news anyway!
That's awesome! I finished all the levels and I really liked the idea. Well done!
Thank you for playing!
Cool puzzle ideas with a turn based controls. I also enjoyed the artwork.
Thank you!
This is a really good concept. The map/level design is good, the level 3 got me 3 retries to get it done properly. Despite the small view port, I think it's a great game.
Thank you! I had plans to make better gfx and sounds but ran out of time.
