Very nice!
I also managed to beat it without the wizard. :D

So congratulations on finishing a game jam! That's a significant accomplishment.
I'm not sure if the game is working as intended. I think that I do what I am supposed to do, but then it does not appear in the boss fight. Also, I feel like I'm just grinding. I defeat enemies by clicking a ton. There's not really much strategy to it nor does it feel engaging or pleasing in any way. I just click as much as I can and try to stay out of range for enormous amounts of time.
I think you need to better explore the fun factor of the game. What makes it fun? So far, I did not have fun, I just clicked a ton.

The King's WalkThanks for the comment. Yeah, I see where your coming from for the fun factor. Been re-writing and adding to the game for a little bit after I submitted to the game jam. The fun factor was supposed to be similar to a bullet hell, but I didn't get to the bullet hell part. The game was also planned to have puzzles you'd have to solve before fighting the mini-bosses to unlock the rest of the party. After submitting the game to the game jam, that's what I've been working on for it. So far so good in my opinion, I'm primarily experimenting with Godot, seeing what I can create. So yeah, thanks again for the comment, it's appreciated and sorry for the late response, I had to think about it for a little bit.
Simple idea and good execution of the simple idea. I would add indications to getting hit

FishaddictWell done! It's simple but done well. I think the concept of getting allies that add benefits to the boss fight. Some more variation during the boss would have been nice, but it's obviously understandable for being a game jam game! Great job

OmnicronicaThanks for the praise. More variation to the boss was something I did want to add, but there were other things that I personally thought that were more beneficial to the game. Thanks for the feedback, I'm still learning but getting better overtime, this game jam so far has been a blast with tons of learning experiences. I wanted the final boss to have multiple projectile attacks that you'd have to dodge, and I wanted the mini-bosses to have more of a puzzle like structure. I wanted the mini-boss rooms to be a challenge to the player, then once the player reached the NPC (Wizard or Archer) the puzzle room would fall apart, becoming really easy. But, other more primitive things were added, I'm aware how scope creep can really hinder a game.
Good job! Would be great if there were less redundant areas like there are some very long empty room before you get to the action. Also it would be nice if the enemies and spikes were more contrasting so that it would be easier for player to be aware of them

Emergencies HappenNice idea!
The different paths you could take were a neat touch :)
Maybe give the bosses less health though, as they took really long to defeat, which made it a bit boring.
Still, I had fun and hope you had fun programming :D

Perfect JobCute game, I like that you can charge in without any help aswell and basically make the game as hard or easy as you want by recruiting the archer and wizard. I think other people have pointed it out already but some kind of feedback when you take damage would be nice. I Liked the game overall, very fun.

Don't Detonate DerekThanks for the feedback. I'm glad you pointed out the main mechanic of making it as hard or as easy as you want, that was one of the main points I was going for, so I'm happy someone pointed it out. And I'll take note of the game giving the player some sort of feedback for when the player gets damaged. Again, thanks for the feedback, it's much appreciated.
I didnt stick to the plan the first time around, it did not go well! nice little game, was hard to tell when i was in range of being attacked or when i took damage, maybe next time some sound indication for when you take damage.
Submitted
Flock SakeThanks for the feedback. I agree with you on your point about having the game play a sound for when the player gets hit. I'll see what I can do about better displaying if the players in range of attacking or being attacked, though the only thing I can think about right now that would fix that, would be to enable the player to see the collision shapes/area 2D's. Though that seems lazy and I'll be looking at other alternatives, I'm open to suggestions as well.
I enjoyed playing your game! It took me a minute to figure out that I needed to click the mouse to attack—maybe I missed the tutorial or something. But thank you for letting me play!

Perfectly CleanGood job! Nice little fighting experience. It was a bit confusing that I had to hit the wizard and archer again after already unlocking them to get their buffs in the Boss level so it took me a few tries to actually get through.

Skibidi RunnerNeat idea, I like gathering the party and getting more abilities. I think if you had a bit longer range and the enemies moved faster/had less health the game would flow a little better.
