Controls are feeling great. I like the dialog effects, tweens and the sprites.

You said you lost direction but this can be a simple survivors game.

Obtaining different wands and passive powers would be great. 

For the dialog I suggest make the CONTINUE button finish loading the dialog instead of skipping it. 

The effects are good here, so looking forward to your MVP

Looks promising. Reminded me of Merlin's Revenge.

Nice selection and use of assets that go well with each other. Would have liked a way to speed up the text or display full dialogue at once before jumping to next dialogue. Kinda give me Realm of the Mad God vibes.

definitely a QoL fix i'll make for any updates in the future, thanks for the feedback (never heard of Realm of the Mad God lol)

Well done. It's a good start. Figure out what the core of the game is and take it from there. Is it a rogue like? Or a puzzle game? A wizard combat dating game? Or something else?

Hi! 

This is super cool for a tech demo and honestly such a nice starting point for like a wizard dungeon crawler thing. Like, for genre, I feel like a rogue-lite style game would suit this well, sorta like Noita, with different spells/staffs you can get each run into the watchtower.  (Also the dialogue and characters are amazing)

Well done :0

An extremely polished tech demo! The movement and combat feel great, and the art and sound effects are really good. This looks likes it could be a very promising game in the future, and I could see it maybe working well as a dungeon crawler. Nice work!

I would've liked to play it further, the current mechanics feel good.

Still tryna cap out that timer...

The mechanics that are there, movement, shooting, visuals, etc are all really good could be something solid

After reading the description my hopes were low, but it ended up delivering a great payoff, one of the best unfinished gamejam submission ive ever seen. What ever it eventually turns into it needs to heavily lean into this meta 4th wall breaking idea for sure, not only in dialogue but in gameplay too if possible.

Nice work :D

Developer

thanks :) from the feedback i've gotten it's pretty evident i need to continue this project lol

It doesnt need to be big and elaborate, keep the vibe of this demo short, silly and clever :D
