Shadow Wizard Money Gang 🧙‍♂️

Nice puzzles, I like the rune mechanic and props for the cool torch effect :D

The movement was a bit wonky at times:

• Landing on the ground after jumping would sometimes make the player stuck (wiggling around or jumping usually fixed it)
• When the player’s “shrink” spell runs out and he’s enlarged to the original size, the player would sometimes get a part of him stuck underground (this actually killed me once, even tho I was in an open space)
• The windows render on top of the platforms (see uploaded image)

A great concept that was well executed, good work on this entry! The levels were fun and well designed. I loved the visuals, notably the tileset and the windows which were my two favorite assets. The player character was also well designed, though one thing I could point out is that player animations would really elevate the game feel. Overall a very nice job on this puzzle platformer!

Great idea using a wizard and their magic to interact with the environment—fantastic puzzle design! The level difficulty progression is excellent; at the beginning, each ability comes with instructions so players don’t get lost, and then the difficulty increases gradually. The lighting effects you used with Unity look beautiful in the environment. Congratulations!

Good graphics, I liked that there were so many very original mechanics. Great game!

Great concept. I enjoyed the progression of difficulty. I got stuck when the wizard needs to be small on an invisible wall a few times. It's the level where you are only allowed to use the 4th magic spell and need to be fast. Fun game though.

I think there are some collision problem, fell through the floor at the exit at times, and others I got blocks by an invisible wall at the exit unless I jump,, otherwise great job! Love the wizard theme!

Very interesting concept although I find puzzles a bit easy.

A wonderfully well balanced game with clever use of the theme. Great work. 

Very atmosphereic style! the gameplay is very clever too! Did come across some minor bugs which I see are already aware of; would love to see this further developed. Nice job on what you've accomplished in the time given!!

Beautiful art style and very competent implementation of 4 different scaling mechanics! Theres a lot in this game for the short development time. Nice work! 

A fun game. I liked the puzzles and that some even allowed for multiple possible solutions
(although I'm not sure if that was always intentional).
There were a few minor bugs that you explained in the description, but they were far away from making the game unplayable. Good work!

Interesting submission! I liked how all of the runes scaled size in a different way, and were often used concurrently to solve puzzles. Only real complaint is I feel like the "shrink self" rune should be an arrow facing down instead of up, Semiotically it makes more sense. Take me to the wizards that created rune magic if you need to i'll die on this hill. Nice work getting this over the line in time!

Pretty good! As others have said, if you polish this game a bit more it could turn out to be a very good experience :)

Really like the concept of the runes, it's a shame that i got stuck in the shrinking level, where you have to go under the wall, I kept getting stucked in the middle of the section. A shame because I really liked the concept, with a little bit more polish it could really rock!

Some interesting magic mechanics and good puzzle-platformer level design! I would recommend working on the feel of the platforming a little more: making the jump a little less floaty and adding quality of life features like coyote-time and jump-buffering. But with a bit more polish, this can turn out great! Nice work!

well-designed levels! 

a couple of stuff:

- someplace have invisible collisions that stop me from moving forward

- platforms don't move players from left to right (I  know it's hard; I tried before )

- walls can be used for unlimited jumps

great job nonetheless!

Really well put together, well designed and fun to played, impressive you managed to squeeze so many levels into the game, though a shame the collision is a bit wonky at times, the small rune especially as it makes you fall through the ground. But overall great work!

Nice game, I liked the concept. well done!

It’s impressive how you managed to incorporate so many different mechanics! Despite that, the difficulty scales correctly without ever becoming frustrating or overwhelming.

I do have one small piece of feedback: instead of using "real" runes, you could create unique rune designs that better suggests their effect. I often picked the wrong rune because I couldn’t remember which one I needed 😅

But overall, fantastic work!

I really like the graphics and music. The game looks really good. I like that you had cooldown meters for the spells so the player knows how long they have. There were a couple frustrating parts where the character got stuck or the hitbox hit something I thought I could clear, but otherwise a solid game with interesting puzzles, nice job!
