There's a bit of lag when a lot if wizards use spells but good game!

Neat idea, clearly a lot of polish and updates went into this!I found the controls a little floaty/tricky at times but overall, nice game!

Well done really funny idea and it sounds like you've made a lot of improvements since the GMTK jam. I enjoyed the game but on the later levels it started to lag quite a lot, this may just be due to my laptop  and the fact I was playing it in the browser though. Good job! :)
