Awesome game! I'm a little surprised this game has so few ratings. More people should definitely give this one a try. The swapping mechanic is handled very well, and the game looks and sounds great. Probably one of my favorites that I've tried out this jam.

I think if there's one thing I would change, it would be to add enemies coming in from multiple directions. In the first stage it's very easy to just sit in the middle, wait for an enemy to get close to the bottom of their tile, and then swap the enemy's tile into the bottom row, forcing them to immediately walk out. It makes the difficulty pretty trivial, but I think if stuff were coming in from all directions then that would lead to much more interesting decision making.

Good work on the game though!

This game was great and very polished. The art was stunning and while I think the player could have been a little more animated, it's still an incredibly detailed experience! The main mechanic was very neat and while it took me a minute to wrap my head around it was a wholly original experience, and I think the only issue with the game is that I wish there was more, and that's never a bad thing! Honestly, I think if you kept working on the concept it could really be something special.

Thank you! : ) I agree completely- I planned to add some cool dash effects on the player, like a proper mech sliding around, but that ended up on the chopping block.

This has got to be one of my top picks as well! The music, the polish, the style, the gameplay! It was all solid! It was a refresher! If you made a longer version of this with some cutscenes I would be so down to buying this! 

Developer

Thanks! : ) I was hoping to do a little cutscene at the start where the player does a fancy staff animation to cast the Swap spell, but we had to cut it. That would definitely go in a longer version.

Woah! This is crazy underrated. I have never seen anything like this. What an awesome addition.

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! : )

Sooooooooo Underrated omg

I love it, the concept is insanely creative!

I need mooooore! make a fuul game please! the concept is that good

the music is also great! but I have a bug where the sfx are only in the left ear, it's kinda annoying

other than that, just perfect!

Developer

Glad you like the concept! I think we must have used positional audio by mistake, causing it to only play on the left side... will have to take a look at that once the jam is over.

Polished, creative and very fun to play game. The first stages were nice but for me the game really shines on the boss battle. I loved figuring out how to damage it and how to evade all patterns. I feel like this game could be expanded, the concept is easy to grasp but very fun to play with. 

Yall did an incredible job on this one.

Developer

Thank you! : ) I agree,  the mechanics came together best during the boss fight.
