Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • Really nice, coherent visual style and a clever reversal the usual game formula! The way to assign your powers wasn't immediately apparent to me, but once I figured it out I had a really nice brain twisting time.
  • This game is so good but unfortunately I couldn't really figure out what to do after the first few rooms. This game holds a lot of potential so keep kicking ass!

Did you include your Game Design Document in your downloadable files?

Tell us about your game!
In any game, the player would be rewarded with some form of progression, such as leveling up, getting new abilities, or obtaining rewards from overcoming challenges throughout the game. However, this game starts with the player having access to all of the spells, and they will lose them over time as the game progresses.

The player has 3 talent trees (fire, ice and lightning) that feature corruption spreading throughout them. Spells have varying corruption costs, causing more affliction within their respective elemental magic tree. Players can use their spells to damage enemies, solve puzzles or modify the environment.

The player will be moving from right to left as their goal is to return to the entrance of the dungeon cave. Upon reaching the end of the game, there are 2 possible endings with an accompanying cutscene for each.

Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes
