Spell of Old by Tanser

[raw]
made by Tanser for LD28 (JAM)
Queer mage have found himself in dungeon. You control him and in order to escape you have to go through a maze of traps. At each level there is interference which you have to pass over with the help of rune magic. This old magic is the spell of teleportation. You have power to cast Blink once each level. Use your magic wisely and get the caster out of the dungeon.

Controls:
WASD for movement and spacebar for jump. Hold right mouse button and then press left mouse button to teleport.

Created by Petar Dimitrov - Art,
Miroslav Dimitrov - Programming.

*Fix: Removed the clicks which Garageband had produced in the soundtrack.

Why is blinking so complicated? Why not just one left click?

The idea is interesting, not sure how many levels you could make with the concept, though.

Loving the blinking concept, obviously limiting me to one fits the theme, but I want more damnit!

The design of the level is a bit daunting, but the concept is nice.

This is a nice little idea! I liked the trapped door at last level. Jumping is a little fuzzy, though, and it would have been nice to be able to see a little bit further, because sometimes you can't see where you are going to jump :) The hardships of being a mage, I guess :)

Really great art on this one. I'm a pixel kinda guy so this completely resonated with me. Also felt like nice use of theme. Great stuff!

The game is good, but the movement mechanic is not one of the greatest.

Very good idea, it's pleasant to be played ;) Music is climatic, but it became to too boring, and sometimes I see problem with collision(I moved through the block) ;) Overall congrats for finish and good luck! Good job. ;)

Nice job, but too short.

Nice mood here, but you should concentrate more on the game design aspect. I don't feel like jumping with the creeping mage.
Продължавайте в същия дух ! Успех!

Nice idea, but the actual platforming is horrible :-/ It's too slow, jump doesn't feel right and overall it's not elegant. That click sounds when walking don't fit the music really well too. Graphics is relatively nice (I'm not pixel art fan but this seems ok to me..) Next time try to concentrate on the gameplay element first :-) I'm sorry that I was so critique and I wish you better luck next time.
