Ahahaha now this is my kinda funnn. Techno BDSM Wizzard is an AMAZING BAND NAME BTW. This game has sooo much charm and cheeky polish, just woah! The level design is really simple but effective. I did get stuck with some of the cap closing due to the dash feeling a bit off.

Nicely done yall <3

Love the idea of blood magic and the mechanics of it was well done, performance on web was a bit rough but still had a lot of fun. : )

This game is so peak. I love the humour and aesthetic. The start is so strong, the music and all the sounds are awesome. All the voice work is so cool too, it cracked me up.

I like the idea of hurting yourself for mana. It has risk reward built in! But I in practice I just ended up respawning a lot lol. Im sure there's a way to execute it without having to die so often. 

Still had a blast, such high quality and I cant believe there's even a boss fight at the end lol. 

Well done everyone so epic!

I liked the clapping/shooting sound effect and the way the enemies exploded into bits. The part I found frustrating was the camera when climbing up the stairs. Also, having to stab myself repeatedly to gain mana and then waiting even longer to regain health felt a bit tedious and took away from the flow of the gameplay.

That said, I really like the idea of playing as a BDSM Blood Wizard. And honestly, if being a total weirdo is a crime, then I’m guilty too 😔

Yay!

Nice game, I like the art and sound and the humor was just the kind of brainrot im into

The shooting was kinda ehhh and the main mechanic is a bit shallow but in the end I did enjoy it

So damn funky I absolutely loved it! Great entry with so much humour, congrats :D

I am not a monster, I am a TECHNO BDSM WIZARD, and I shall slay the kink shamers. 

Movement and art is great. 

However, I am going to go against the grain and say that the main gimmick of the game, is just not very good. 

In it's current form, it does not really challenge the player to "balance their mana and health", it instead, completely grinds the game to a halt and encourages the player to stab themselves against a wall, hold right click for half a minute while their health goes up and mana goes down,  ad nauseam until your health is full, and your mana is 3/4 full, and since mana always pays back more health than the amount, it just stalls the game at random points in time. 

After defeating the final boss, I noticed the ball it left behinds moves, and the gate was the same color, I spent a few minutes frustratingly chasing after the moving spikes to try and get some mana back, because I thought it was a puzzle to move the ball into the gate. 

Then I realized all I had to do was walk through the gate... 


Overall, its good, just that I don't think the main gimmick added anything to the game.

Very cool! Loved the style and humour!

Well that was unexpected in the best way!! Really good job on the controls and movement and overall package of the game. I got a bit lost after finding the key, found it before the boss door. But all in all really cool. Having the choice of charged up shots or machine gun style quick shots was fun.

Creative, enjoyable and interesting use of the theme. Personally I'm not the biggest fan of fps shooters in this style, but I still found I enjoyed my time with it.

Super fun and creative game, really enjoyed. Unfortuneately the boss bugged out a bit and I fell through the map. Still really cool!

Really cool concept, was fun to try balance health and mana :)

Wow, great result! Surprisingly smooth in an embedded WebGL build - nice one! Got some warm comfy Quake 1 vibes - v. cool. 🙌

Nice game and I liked the pixelated art style. Mechanics was okay until I got the hang of it. Audio was awesome and I suggest one change, make the camera FOV a bit higher. Other than that, good job for such a short time.

I had a lot of fun playing this! This was such a fun take on the theme, and very unique way of balancing a Health and Mana system. 

Even though the Mana converted for an overall gain in Health, it somehow didn't feel too broken or cheesy to take damage, heal it all up, then damage some more to restock on Mana. It was a fun balance to juggle along with the solid FPS Mechanics. I enjoyed the music, the art, and overall had a blast playing! 

Very well done!

The clap to shoot sound was so satisfying. I'm a sucker for boomer shooters and I would love to play a more fleshed out version if you ever decide to keep developing this.

Very neat - well done - love the style of the art

The whole vibe of the game is great, the walls were especially nice lol. I see why the mouse sensitivity option was a thing, i spun around at first with my DPI XD. I would remove the red orbs on the floor that help show the way as i feel the game was linear enough to stop the player getting lost. Great job!

Love the aesthetics an vibe you got with this! Feels like a game I'd see Scott the Woz or AustinEruption talk about in a retrospective type video. Sound design really added to this and I liked the humor!

Submitted(+2)

jank in all the right ways! especially enjoyed the pumping music and the dialogue! and of course, Clippy giving us the tutorial, classic! feels a bit cheesy that the best way to get mana is to die over and over again, but then again, maybe that is the point? lol, great game guys! techno bdsm wizard might just be my next dnd character :>
