Art is great! I especially like Leira's little shimmy she does as her idle animation.

The way you present dialogue is really well done. The text boxes are nicely formatted. The font is good. The way text scrolls with the speech noise is well done. Everything is stylish was still being functional and legible.

Only real issue is that the light particles can get lost in the light blue of the sky. Other than that, great job! Wish it was longer.

EDIT: I JUST FOUND OUT THAT IF YOU MASH THROUGH THE DIALOGUE THE CHARACTERS SPEAK GIBERISH! THAT'S HILARIOUS!

That was a really cool experience. I really liked the art and the fighting mechanics. Although, it didn't really click for me that that spell wasn't real (although maybe I was just being an idiot). But overall I really liked it. Can you please rate my game as well?

Here is a video review for you. I hope it helps.

Thank you for the video! This is by far the most useful way for me to learn, I appreciate it!

The fight mechanic was engaging and seemed interesting. I think it would be better if your illusion meter didn't drain over time. There were times where I couldn't do anything but wait so I just lost part of my meter.

Thank you for the feedback!

Incredible! love it all! music works with the clicking and you still need to multitask to get the shot off! awesome job! I wish there were more things to throw fire balls at lol I want see Keira do more stuff haha

The animations are really cute! I assume the fight at the end was prolonged since it was the only fight in the game, but if there were more fights to do, I'd suggest making them shorter. The simple game play was really fun, and has many potential ways to ramp up the challenge of future battles.

Developer

Thank you! And you're exactly right, I originally wanted to do more fights but time got the best of me, I might continue working on it tho!

Its a shame you didnt have time to add more, I feel like the mechanics are just at the beginning of what you could do with the game. Looks promising!
