Sweet visuals and sounds! In the future updates, you can freeze enemies as the player enters the dungeon. Good job!

Developer(+1)

That's an awesome idea~  I am trying to add more content and you idea tomorrow (will upload after voting)

I had the feeling to be at poudlard LOL good job.

Submitted(+1)

Great job! I think this is the game I have played the longest so far :) Cute concept and easy to understand.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing long!  I will add  a lot more to it with everyone's suggestions, check it out later too :D

Solid controls, great gameplay, nice visuals nice sound. Everything just fits in perfectly... great job


if you have any time check my submission as well

Submitted(+1)

I'm surprised with this game's art, it's really amazing! The controls are really solid and I had a lot of fun! Amazing job 

Developer

Thanks!  After many jams I've kinda mastered my 64x64 quick sprite art style haha (also I do 64x64 tiles)

Fun game! Reminds me of the original Legend of Zelda!

Also, you wrote shoot magic with Right Click, but it's Left click in the game.

Sometimes, due to the random dungeons, I HAD to step through spikes to get to the finish. Is that intended?

Developer

Thanks for playing!  And yeah someone pointed that out earlier haha.  There is a dash jump/doge skill with space bar, you can use that to do over spikes and enemy shoots :D  (I ran out of time to do a tutorial level T T)

Submitted(+1)

Cool game. I couldn't play it on full screen for some reason :I

Developer

Yeah I messed up some settings before uploading hehe (First time doing a play in browser game)

Submitted(+1)

Cool game, stimulating and intriguing, but sometimes it seemed too generous (I'm talking about the combination of an high amount of life drops, the absence of a short cooldown when you shoot a bullet, and the fact that, the dodge, if done well, can make you go through 1 tile of spikes unhurted).


I would love NOT to be a party pooper, but I would like to point out that spiders are not bugs.

Developer

Haha yeah I should have given them six legs XD

Nice game, well built and fun. I enjoyed the art

Submitted(+1)

Great game, for some reason couldn't put my game in full screen but i still liked it. Great artwork snd really good mechanics. 

Submitted(+1)

I enjoyed the game I ended up with 44 bugs, but I was unable to find the exit. I systematically check all the rooms but maybe that was one of the intentional bugs;)


If you could kindly play my game as well. Thanks

Nice game !
Procedurally generated, a lot of simple but effective mechanics. I liked the sound design a lot a lot !! Music, sfx...all great !!

I share the opinion of other comments: not having to go through spikes to proceed would have been better !

No really, nothing to add, take the stars it was good !

Developer

Thanks for playing~  If you push space with can phase jump through spikes.  (Didn't have time to put in a tutorial hehe)

Submitted(+1)

I love the character and sound effects! He looks like harry potter xd

Submitted(+1)

It was fun, until I had only 1 life left and was forced to walk over spikes :(
Maybe next time make sure that every part of the room can be accessed without going over traps?

Anyway, great game :)

I think I know that feeling :)

The sounds go great with the cuteness of the game. Good Job.

Submitted(+1)

First off, Kudos to the sound effect for the wand attack! XD I got a really giggle out of that! ;) I found an audio bug; the music doesn't loop. But other than that, it's a cool game! ^ ^

Developer(+1)

Oh thanks!  I will put the music on loop after voting ends~

Submitted(+1)

Nice work with this one! Very good rogue-like for just three days. Wish there was more of a goal or progression. Also, love the sound effects :)

Submitted(+1)

The character animations are cute and well made! The voices are funny, too. Procedural levels seem to work well. Once I had to walk through spikes to get to the exit, not sure whether it was intended or not. Enemies often attacked me while the screen was scrolling, so I was taking damage before I could even see them. I'd recommend placing the enemies further away, and give player at least half-a-second to get their bearings before the enemies attack. Didn't come across any (unintended) bugs, so well made particularly for a first attempt at procedural generation!

Developer

Thanks for playing!  I will try and adjust the enemies in the rooms~  If you push space you can jump/dash over spikes~

Submitted(+1)

OMG THE SOUND EFFECTS!! so good. so so good. the graphics were flawless and overall a wonderful execution of an immensely cute game. great job!
