Lost Mage by Eliyud

A game about a mage that is in danger somewhere.
My idea, from the beginning, was a game where I could extrapolate physics mechanics. I still feel like I could have gone further (like adding the possibility of breaking walls, for example), but I feel like the game is in a good state.
Ultimately, the game's core loop is about surviving waves of enemies that, as time passes, tend to become more numerous and difficult to deal with.
It's best to always break crates to avoid running out of lives.

Controls:
W, A, S and D - move around Mouse cursor - turn around Left mouse button - shoot

The them was implemented well with only having a small level to survive in. Although after a while the level became a bit boring and repetitive. Maybe if the game is developed further you can add in a wave system where after completing for example 5 waves you can move to another small arena. This will give a bit more variety I think.
The music was fitting but the standout for the audio was the enemy sounds. They are chilling which added to quite the tense vibe.
All in all fantastic job!
The invisible walls from which the enemies arrive are very disturbing, an element should have been added to differentiate them.
The game takes too long to get going; it's too easy for a long time.
Otherwise very nice gg, plus I used the same character for an old Ludum haha! :smile:
No mouse cursor in the web version really bugged me, I'm assuming it has something to do with a custom cursor in the PC build? Other than that, the graphics were really well made, great job. I wish there'd been a bit more to it, but I congratulate you on getting something out there! See you next jam! :thumbsup:
