What category are you in?

Novice

How does your game relate to the theme?
The mechanics of the two modes during the round- defense and attack- are opposite mechanics to each other. The rewards for casting a spell matching the number shown grants either an attack magnet or a repelling shield.

Specify any and all pre-made assets in your submission.
No pre-made assets were used- all music, character design/animation, background images, sounds/music were created by myself using aseprite and FL Studio

How many team members does your team have in total?
1

Anything else you would like us to know?
I unfortunately couldn't upload this as a web html project. Love2d has several private libraries that try to do this conversion, but currently cursors aren't supported. A lot of my game involves cursor work, so I had to keep it as a downloadable.

By submitting, you agree to all the rules listed.

I/We agree

Does your game utilize Wolfram Language?

No

I added a patch file that fixes a game-breaking issue with the shop and a minor issue with the 'continue run' mechanic. Feel free to ignore this version for this game jam submission
