Wow what a start!  This is the first game i played in this year's jam and it is was really fun to play. The pixel art graphics looks nince. I especially like the character portraits. Different areas look distinct with different textures, it creates a nice ambience. Enemies don't look to creative but still nice.

I managed to beat the game. I think the difficulty is well balanced. I died a few times but respawn button spawned me at the area enterance. It think this is a very good touch, you don't have to start over the game every time you die. That would be very frustrating.

The theme elemental rock&paper&scissors is incorporated into the game very well. I don't understand how the dizzy effect works. Is it like a spinner? But it doesn't exactly work like that. I totally loved the dice rolling  sequences. Maybe it's not a big part of the game but it adds a strong RPG feel to the game. I like that dice roll animation.

Overall i think it's a great game. It's very polished everything works smoothly, UI, controls . Nothing felt broken or janky to me. Congrats for the excellent job!

Thanks! The dizzy effect rotates you to the opposite direction from which you were facing. It's a janky mechanic though. I remember thinking it was fun in Eye of the Beholder back in the day but I think they used it more sparingly than I did! I can do alright drawing tiles but when it comes to enemies, it's still a struggle. One day I'll improve maybe!

In Wizardry games it changes rotation to any direction randomly. But in those games there are no automap, you're supposed to draw your own map on graph paper. Spinners are placed to disorient the player, make it harder to draw the map. Btw i guess the title of the game is an homage to Temple of Elemental Evil, the DnD adventure module. Even the font in the cover is same with the book cover. I played it's video game briefly years ago. I liked that reference too
