It's a bit difficult to react in time when enemies start coming at you, but great job nonetheless! 

Developer

Thank you! I totally agree with you on that too, though I'm not sure the best way to fix that...

I love the art for this one! This game looks great! The only thing I would really say is I didn't realize the second spell aimed at the mouse initially, so I couldn't figure out how to hit one of the switches for way too long.


This was your first game? I'm genuinely shocked. This is great! Well done

Developer

Yeah it was my first one! Thanks so much, it was very fun (and very very hard) to make! :D

I love this game! The timing based spellcasting is ingenious, the music is so nice, the sounds fit so well, the art was very pleasing to look at, and the story was quite funny. Great interpretation of the theme, or should I say, translation of the theme? Nah that's stretching the definition of translation a bit. Oh well.

The only thing is, that one point where you ikus bah jo onto the moving platform offscreen, I'd personally prefer the platform to be a bit closer, or in a different position entirely, so you can see it when you shoot ikus bah joe, or you could even zoom the camera out, which can be done with the Camera2D's zoom property.

Anyway, other than that, I really enjoyed playing the game. A very great game, overall. Well done!

Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it!  Thank you for the feedback too! There were a lot of parts that I think were a bit too difficult. If I had more time I definitely wish I could have balanced a few parts better! Being able to zoom out the camera is a really good idea too!

this is really good for a first game! the controls for using the attacks are a bit hard to get used to, but overall i like the game!
