  • What a cute game! Good sound effects and particle effects. I liked the different wands too. And the music sounds like what a cat would listen to.
  • Adorable flying delicate wizard kitten attacked by cute Kawaii villains shmup! What's not to love. Excellent use of a "durability" value to force players to conserve ammo, and the dynamic of needing to pick up a randomly placed wand was challenging. Game got very hairy (no pun intended) at times when wand ran out and enemy bubbles flying everywhere. Game conserved memory well and didn't lag even with a ton going on on screen. Loved the variable wand types. Heart wand definitely my favorite and the one that expired most quickly. Needs one additional instruction to tell player to pick up their fragile wand and mind the durability score. I loved the music for about 30 seconds and then I needed it to change, badly :) All around superb effort, lots of replayability. Just needs a bit more variety on the tunes <3
