The gameplay is quite basic, but functional. I wished I could see a bit further, maybe in the direction I'm facing. Or have some kind of indicator where the enemies are because the camera is zoomed in so much...

.. on the other hand we all know why it is zoomed in so much, and for good reason, because your graphic assets are abolutely outstandingly amazing! Music too!

I had fun playing :)

Having to control the camera with the mouse is a bit tedious : since it doesn't aim with it, it just feels like a way to deal with the problem of the camera being way to close, but in a clunky way... I would really recommend zooming out and leaving the whole control the camera with the mouse (or allowing to aim the shots with the mouse).
For the rest, the art is good, and the gameplay, even if simple, is enjoyable :)

Very nice game! I don't care about we all know what, but she's beautiful! :sweat_smile:

It was really fun to play, great job!

Hahaha, I love how over the top the witch character is. The art is pretty good, especially the background art! Very pretty. I just think there could be some adjustments made to the gameplay, the witch could always be centered regardless of where she's going, otherwise you end up flying straight into enemies. On my playthroughs, I also had an enemy spawn on the top of the screen where I couldn't see it and I bumped into it a lot, it felt kinda unfair. Other than that, good job!

Decent if not simple game, the good: Art looks pretty good, the music is nice, gameplay is okay. The bad: Gameplay is JUST okay. Needs a hold to shoot option. Camera needs to zoom out a bit, I know you wanted to show off the character art but do something like have the book take up the right 2 thirds of the screen, and then zoom in when opening the book. Book also needs a close button not just the E hotkey.

The art looks wonderful, i was really looking forward to playing it

But when i click the link i just get a squashed picture of hillary clinton and ellen

Am i doing something wrong? I waited like a minute or 2 and nothing changed or is this a troll entry and i didnt get the joke? xD

Its really funny either way :D

Not outstanding gameplay, but at least "outstanding" graphics ;-)

.... the game is also okay, the audio too. I have the same problems as the other players, you have to guess where the enemies are.

@jofersgames if you press F12 you can open chrome dev tools and you can see the console and errors and whatnot. If you run into this again hook me up with those deets baby. OR sometimes the game has a sliiiight chance to freeze on the preloader. Either has something to do with browser caching or something like that on the backend

Also ayyy thanks to everyone droppin feedback *please* keep it coming!

Mmm that's nice graphics. But it felt a bit difficult to get the alternative color palete upgrade. I ran into some bugs (eg stopping the game when i tried to look at the third page or some bugs with invisible enemies). It feels good. Thank you for this game.

@jofersgames that would be the loading screen. It confused me as well, but when the image is stretched all the way the game has loaded.

Nice entry, the best part was the great art, and you also managed to use the theme in a good way!

First time I tried to play I just got a picture of ellen frozen. Second time I loaded properly, and clicked the book, which didn't pause the game, and there was no way to close the book so I just died. Wish the controls were explained. Nice witch art.

I loved the graphics, there's a ready good mood going on with the art and music.

The controls we're not exactly what I expected, I wish I could have shot in the direction my mouse was aiming. Also, sometimes I couldn't find the last enemy of a wave for quite a while. Maybe if you made them spawn at the same level as the player when there are just a few left that would make things less frustrating?

Good job on your entry! :)
