Hey 3anter,
Really appreciate you taking the time to play our game and write such a thoughtful review! Super happy you liked the art and abilities!
Unfortunately, we had a bug that broke our sound and couldn't get it in before the jam deadline :(
Depending on the feedback we get, we may polish it up a bit more.
Thanks again 🙏🏼

I thought you already knew that 😅 congrats nevertheless.
I have played the game again and its so much better now!
I have also noticed somethings that I didn't notice in my first playthrough , here are some:
* There are snacks/boosts hidden under some furniture , which is a nice touch and I like it.
* When the game starts the timer don't start until the player gets to the first magic circle , I abused this system to collect every boost in the map , you might want to fix that :)
* It seems that there is a bug in the left-click in general (it could be because of my shitty mouse so you might have to verify it :) ) , which made it unresponsive and caused me to loose a couple of runs. Sometimes the left-click doesn't respond quickly and sometimes it doesn't work at all.
* If you use Telekinesis and move the object to a place where you cant put it down you can continue using telekinesis even if your mana go 0 until you move the object to a place where you can put it down.
btw are you planning on continuing working on this game?
Haha, we didn't notice the 48 hours at first, lol 😭
Thanks so much for playing it again and such amazing feedback! We are strongly considering continuing this game and maybe making it commercial - if we get positive feedback from players and think it's worthwhile to pursue.
- Glad you like the hidden snacks/biscuits!
- Picking up the biscuits under furniture only replenishes your magic (mana). So if you're already at 100% magic, there isn't a benefit to picking it up. However, you CAN move furniture around before getting to the magic circle - which can be abused. The long-term idea is to have the player only have 1 minute of preparation before Dusk (shadows spawn).
- We haven't seen unresponsiveness in left-clicking YET, so not sure what happened there. But REALLY appreciate you bringing it up so we can be on the look out (in case it wasn't your mouse).
- Thanks for letting us know about the Telekinesis bug, where you can't put it down!! Haha, that can be abused and we should fix it.
