Wow wow wow.
The entirety of this game experience was me loving both the discovery of new words from finding them, but also from seeing the enemies cast spells.
Like I just had so much fun seeing something new and piecing it together.
The actual enemy interactions were simple, but it was just so gosh darn satisfying to be set on fire, and be like “ah ha! az za gy”, and even more satisfying when I discovered the ‘zy’ and was like, I already have ‘gy’ why should I care, and then it costed less mana and I was like “OH I DO CARE!”.
So proud I beat the game, and honestly it felt like a flash.
I really enjoyed this, and maybe its worn out to say, but I personally love reading it when people say it about my games, but I could totally see this be developed into a full game.
The core mechanic itself is so well executed, it just felt so natural to remember the words, and the fact that they worked across game sessions but at a higher cost was such a nice touch.
Anyway, I obviously loved it - so thanks for making it 🙇♂️
Little “bug” if you could call it that, I ran into unreachable places from time to time - even diagonal walking here would bump me into the wall:
Super proud of winning the game, I did a “az do ox eb” on the archmages and felt so proud that I didn’t even have to check my book (also I retained that knowledge even now while writing this review).
Super fun and great jamming with you 🥳
