This is how you play it:

I really wanted to beat this game and see the ending but unfortunately it took me too long, I already played it for an hour. My record is hitting the boss thrice. Great game.

This game plays like a Vampire Survivors where the only move you can do is that one move that nukes the screen every minute, except it's not every minute, but every time you "level up" and the nuke is much more satisfying. I actually think that's a clever spin on it, the player is much more involved and has just enough control to get what they need without feeling too limited. Great job!

Really fun game, awesome sprite art and good mechanics! Well done!

Really fun gameplay mechanic: one shot giga power move. The animations and art felt polished. The movement was great. Overall great job!

Really nice game. I am not that good of a player, so the one hit kill was too much for me. I did get to the boss though!

It was satisfying when I grouped all the enemies together and fired me laser at them. I love doing that in video games. The movement felt responsive and the sprites are pleasing to look at. It would be nice if the melee attack could be buffed more, maybe charge a tiny bit of laser each hit, idk. Overall, very nice game!

Wow, that was sick! All of the art is eye candy (I love that dancing Biggie from the tutorial showing you the controls) and the laser... sheesh! Combined with all of the sound effects and music, it was really satisfying to fire that big laser and take out a whole ton of enemies! I kept getting trapped in a corner with no power and I was just stuck in that corner melee-ing enemies to try to shoo them away so I could escape but alas, my own skill issue 😔

Nonetheless, I enjoyed it a lot!

This game is super fun to play! I really enjoyed messing around with it and the big laser felt awesome to use! The art is great, and I'm very impressed by the number of sprites you managed to get in with this limited amount of time! The character controls well and I had a lot of fun boss fighting! The only note I had is that have a finite amount of resource you can use for you laser paired with seemingly 0 damage to enemies on your melee did mean you could kinda just get stuck, having some other option to maybe get out may have been useful, but that's also very likely just a design preference based on the types of games I usually play rather than any sort of demerit on your game in particular. All in all great job with this! crazy that it's only a week-long project!

Wow, how great it is to see another bigmode wizard game. PS, you'll hear from my lawyers :)

As soon as I died to one hit I realized what kinda game this was. Shooting the beam cannon felt extremely satisfying. The attack animations are all very well done.

Fun take on a survivors-like! I wanted more health so I could play for longer :( as other commenters mentioned, the lazer was definitely a highlight

love the art and really cool boss fight!

really nice work! one-hit kill is rough, but the laser is very satisfying, and makes it worth it when you pull it off well. aesthetic is excellent

The art and animations are great, what more do you want besides a beeg laser, fun feel

Fantastic job on the game feel! I love how this project is oozing with juice, which of course absolutely contributes to fitting the theme of power. Also, the quantity of animated characters is extraordinary for the amount of time.

i like the little wizard guy :)

The beeg laser is truly the highlight - loved the tension of charging it as the enemies are about to OHKO you and then firing it just in time
