This was so fun! I really liked trying to memorize the spells with the buttons. The art was super cute and the sounds were great too. I liked the text when you lose haha. Great job!!

- Really interesting idea, and playing as a cat is adorable! However, I felt that there were times that the controls were a little unrefined - I think I would have preferred the symbols on the screen as buttons to begin with, or an on-screen reference to the correspondence keys. While the alchemy theme is there, the shadow theme is a bit lacking, I thought. I loved your music and assets, this was a treat to experience!
Did you include your Game Design Document as a Google Drive link?
Yes
Seriously... did you include your Game Design Document?
I said Yes! I'm double checking, like, right now! Yeah it's on there. I think. Yeah. Pretty sure. Like 99.99999999%. I even went back and added a second link lol
Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Maaaayyybe.... Yes.
Tell us about your game!
It's a small game about a familiar being a little gremlin and tampering with their wizard's spellbook!
