I definitely got a little annoyed when the enemies kept punch the orbs out of the circle in the hard ritual, but the difficulty increase fits well. I found switching spells to be a little hard, my fingers kept getting confused moving up to 1\/2\/3\/4 and the scroll wheel felt too sensitive.\n\nArt and music are both simple but work. I think if you wanted to expand this, you could add more spells or ritual types. Nice job on the game!","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":1070329,"author_name":"Brogan Ward","author_uid":"brogan-ward","epoch":1713759992,"text":"Awesome abilities to play around with. I really like strategizing with the rock wall. The structure of the minigames were difficult but enough so that I was committed to beating them (especially the capture point and avoid the storm ones).\n\nMight have been out of the scope, but I wish the push ability did a pool cue effect; if you hit one entity into another, the force from the push gets transferred to the second entity. Could make some situations more strategic.\n\nOverall, I enjoyed the progression and fight up to the final level.
