Fun adventure game with interesting mechanics!

Great submission with a lot of fun details, like the player character's smooth walking animation or being able to rocket jump with a pushing spell! 

The only thing that I didn't like were the spell casting controls as they felt  bit off at times (though it might be just me, it took me a while to get used to the way spells are aimed)

Well, I certainly did blow myself up a lot!

Fun lil' game :) Did you all do all of the art yourselves?

Congrats!

Blowing myself in a huge explosion got a laugh out of me, it's a fun concept. I see the comments about how hard it is with keeping lives and health, and I'd say it probably would have been better to drop lives altogether. Accidently killing yourself trying out a new spell is part of the fun, and games that kill you in funny and unpredictable ways often have short resets.

i love the idea, especially killing the farmer pigs by accident since i deserved the farmers' rage. those pigs didnt deserve death! solid game, nice job!

Very nice visuals. and the spells were fun to use! I did find the game to be a bit unforgiving though... there didn't seem to be a way to get more lives or health, so I wasn't able to beat it. Let me know if that is a mechanic and I just missed it.

I really loved the art, especially the houses

Really liked the spritework, the fireball and lightning spells looked great and felt great to cast. Good use of unintended consequences as well, caught me off guard a number of times. Cool game!

really hard game =D

The spell mechanic in this game embodies the theme of the jam super strongly, so well done with that! I also found the spells to be a lot of fun in general, especially the wind one. I feel like the game punishes you a bit too harshly towards the end, as you don't regain lives, and if you make it really far you start right at the beginning. There were also some small glitches with the sounds where they would just keep playing even after I died and respawned, leading to some very loud consequences haha. Overall solid game, well done!

I very much enjoyed playing around with all the spells. I laughed so hard when I insta-killed myself with the first fireball I cast lol. The different consequences of the spells were a clever idea, and plays well into the theme and your lore! You managed to pack a lot of juice into it, and the music was great! I think the enemies could use some balancing since you are already fighting yourself, and it can be difficult to aim without a reticle or something. Great work overall!

I really enjoyed the charm of the art style. And some of the effects were really cool. I thought it was a clever tie-in to the theme as well.

Some suggestions for improvement:

- Maybe it's just me but for the first couple of levels I didn't realize how much damage I was doing to myself with spells. Perhaps more clarity around when I'm taking damage would help.
- The night level was a little too dark. I couldn't see myself or enemies.
- It wasn't always easy to be precise with my spell casting direction. Maybe some subtle indication of that could help without being distracting.
- I may have missed it, but I wish there was some volume control because music / SFX were a bit loud for me.

Overall, I think it's a great entry and has a lot of cool stuff in a short amount of time. Great job!

Nice submission, especially for your first.

Liked the art and sound, especially the fireball blast.

The effects were pretty cool too.

The jumping portion of the game was very challenging, probably a little too difficult from a control perspective.

But overall it was a lot of fun.

Thanks for submitting hope you make more!

Finished it. Liked the wind magic. Blasting yourself foward or upward and pushing enemies into spits of spikes is fun. The game fits the theme of the game pretty well with the explosions and lighting. Poor pigs. I think there was a massive spike in difficulty after the third level. It also required a few blind jumps. For other players make sure not to kill the second goblin in the first level of the game to prevent a game freeze.

Game froze on me.
