The theme was well implemented. I was cursed with the cloud spell first, which is kinda OP so I would like to see some categorization of the curses\/potioneffects in terms of impact they have on playing difficulty.\nThe throw mechanic is great in my eyes and feels very natural\/immersive. Graphics and sound are very nice !\nOn the imaginary \"plz add to the game\" list I would hope for: \n- interaction with more of the environment ( candles for example ),\n- a way to defend while the opponent is throwing ( like the real beer pong has ).\n\nGreat job guys !
