Underwater wizard by kinein
Wizard was teleported into crystal maze, deep underwater. He should clean it from all evil and survive long enough. But in the mist of battle, his clumsy spells will destroy walls, flooding rooms one by one.
You are this mage. Good luck!

Left mouse button - fireball. Hold button to grow it bigger! Right mouse button - Ice lance. It could break the glass walls. F - place a block. Shift - teleport.
Wet demons immune to fire.

First of all it's almost always a bad idea to make the walking controls mouse pointer related and not camera related. It's very non-intuitive. Another thing is the lack of a restart button. And so every time you lose you have to reload the whole game. Yet another issue is a weird block placement controls. Block placement mode does not work half of the time when you press a corresponding button and the process itself is very inconsistent. It seems like half of the time you can't place your block where you want to (near the doors and near the holes in the walls).
Overall this game has some good ideas like risk-reward ice projectiles and the whole flooding system. And it was interesting to play for a couple of tries despite the lack of audio, any endgame objective and other mentioned issues.
