We just released The Mage on steam with a more polished version and we are making it available on itch!
The Mage
Description: A king under threat. A great power hangs in the balance. After uncovering a regicidal plot, the old Mage must leverage the forbidden power of mind/body dualism to cross dimensions, possess the bodies of others and ultimately foil the assassination plot on the King whom he serves.
I just released my game for the global game jam 2023 with the theme "Roots".

Description
Death...famine...pestilence...Maurice. That's how the apocalypse happened, in that specific order. A group of survivors are trapped in a dangerous place called the "splouch ouch that was lava" Hills. Among them was bob. He promised to take them to the safe zone (he was probably lying to be honest). Using his white round thingy, an ancestor retrieval device, bob has the power to control his ancestor bob to help them in their perilous mission to find Maurice.

When I started moving around I said "If this is what I think it is, that's awesome". And it was indeed awesome. It's SO SATISFYING to move around with the branch sound. I was at 14/15 when I got caught, it was like a jumpscare haha but it is cool that I didn't have to restart from scratch.
Incredible job, it was super fun to play
I was surprised by the quality put in this! Everything super well made.
I'm going to be honest I restarted the game a few times just to hear the cutscene music again hahah it's so good with the high notes
I thought for sure the art is an asset pack because of the quality. Turns out it's not. Super impressed with it, it's doesn't feel like it was made in 2 weeks
I can really feel the coziness with the atmosphere, the art, the particles and sound effects.
Overall an awesome submission, great job:)
I had a fun time playing! I took my time for every recipe so I didn't have any explosion!
The art style is unique and super well made for a jam, as well as the audio.
My favorite part is all the small details, the guy in the window, the leaves and interacting with the ingredients feels satisfying!
Overall super impressive game, congrats to everyone who made it
Wow thanks, that's awesome!!
We worked on multiple projects together so our teamwork is just.. 🔥
Vincent did all the sound effects and music and you're right, it's phenomenal!! He did such a good job with the lore/dialogue too
Also I'm really glad you liked the art, it's the result of years of trying! (I did the backgrounds and characters and stephy did some beautiful totems and pickables)
I understand what you're saying about something missing, we planned for a bigger scope but had to remove stuff with the limited time:/
I agree with you about the lore that could be found by exploring, I wish we could've done that!
I'm a bit fried for now but I'll definitely play your game tomorrow!! Thanks again for you feedback, it's super kind of you
Thanks a lot!:)
If you want to really go to outer space I'll reveal a secret. Press Tab + E to unlock my dev console and then press tab again to open it. Then you can activate godMode.
Have fun!
Disclaimer to everyone reading this: you may broke and destroy the game totally, it's definitely not intended to be played that way! Try to finish the game first
