  • The game was fine. It could have used some music to help motivate the player. I felt like the bee enemies were too weak in damage, but too strong in health. I didn't ever feel like the shooting from the wand was impactful. Maybe the spells could have had a trail behind them and a sound when something got hit? Otherwise, great prototype. Keep going with it.

This is prototype of a small 2d platformer puzzle game where the protagonist is a wizard who has a magic wand with two powers : shooting projectiles and turning shadows of certain objects to solid . Wizard can push these shadows and use them to climb platforms away from reach. Using magic and shadows fits perfectly with the theme Alchemy and Shadows.

What a cool idea, casting shadows to drag around, to get around obstacles. Very original! I like the artstyle a lot, too. Cinematic cutscene was a very pleasant surprise. Well done!
