I rated your game! It's the best platformer that I've played so far

It was a bit fustrating at first, I was trying figure out what the game wants me to do, as there is no tutorial, and the text description under it is too vague. I saw a youtube video in this comment section and I watched it to learn how to play this game.
Aside from the lack of a tutorial this game has brilliant visuals, audio, and creativity. It's a fun game that balances evasion and fighting. Well done!
Maybe its just a skill issue for me, but the spell casting is a bit hard, and the tutorial is lacking. It took me a while to learn how to cast spells, and the spellbook doesn't specify where to start drawing. For example: when I tried to cast the spectral shot, I tried drawing from the outside going inside, but it never worked. Eventually I figured out that your supposed to draw it from inside -> outside.
Overall complex but fun game with good exploration and unique mechanic!
There are some bugs, like if you spam the spacebar, you can spin like crazy, and can cause you to get stuck into weird gaps and spaces and get softlocked. The level design is a chaotic: the first 2 levels are simple, and then the 3rd level is super messy and becomes much harder.
Overall good game with intresting and unique mechanics, but could use some better level design and bugfixing!
Wow! I didn't think see a game so similar to mine! Unfortunately (and ironically) your game isn't working for me either. Do you have a windows desktop version I could download, so that I could play your game without the browser getting in the way?

^ above is the entire console messages from my browser (FireFox) when I tried to play your game
Lastly, if the browser version isn't working, I've also put desktop versions to download for linux/macos/windows x86 and ARM

My game is about being a PR manager for a corrupt, stupid, and scandalous mayor. You must spin the news and change the headlines to change the narratives about the mayor.

There are 2 bugs in the browser version of the game:
1. Resolution is very small, which can make text or gui elements blurry
2. The ticker at the bottom is meant to seperate each statement with a ★ or ⚠ symbol. In the web version, the unicode encoding for the text breaks a little bit so it displays a  symbol instead.
Both bugs do not appear in the desktop versions of the game.
The artstyle of this game is great, however there is a lot of dead-space, and the in-game resoulution is small, making it hard to see things, especially the ring in the middle of the game, making it bigger or zooming in would help.
Overall I think the game incorporates the deck building, and tower defense genre with the theme very well, and I hope to see this have a full release someday!

I think the enemies could be developed more. I was easily able to shoot the earth ones even when I was close and they wouldn't aggro or move torwards me. You can also bait the earth and wind enemies into weird spots, where they'd try to go through walls, and get stuck, allowing me to get easy kills. The wind enemy can also charge at you from off-screen.
The art is great and the spinning attack is unique and intuitive, I think this game could benefit from having more enemies per wave. Overall good game!
It took me a minute to figure out the controls, but when you get the hang of them it's quite fun. The sound/music felt quiet, even though I had my volume all the way up, but the artstyle is great!
As someone who was also solo-deving for the game jam, I know how hard it can be. Your hard work really shows!
