How To Rob A Bank (as a Wizard) by petitcoke
The Unity Project as well as the .exe game is uploaded
You are a summoner who summons skeletal minions
- Your minions will help you in attacking the guards, since the wizard is handicapped
- The guards protect the bank's vault, containing gold coins which you want to steal
- Once you find the gold coins, you clear the game. (You will need to quit by pressing ALT+F4)

I tried to play it, but it seems like it wasn't finished? Though I must say that i love the Idea behind it, it doesn't look like it has a lot of gameplay in it. It may sound harsh, but I want to give Feedback nontheless:
- The goal of the maze or the game is not that clear. What should I do? I found the money, but I cant interact?
- How should the skeletons interact with the police? Should i summon them with a cooldown and than use them to distract the police?
- Do i have some limitations in summoning or trying out the game?
I think that could be a fun game idea, but it needs a lot of polishment.
My tips: Next time, try to do something smaller but polished. Something you can realy play and you are able to finish within the time given. This would lead to a finished game.
But keep it up, we all start small and can improve. I love that you delivered a startable product and you just did what you wanted to do: Publish a Game. Congratz!
- Summons just summon themselves, leaving my wizard to just run around. That's sad. I should be the one summoning.
- Summons do not seem to damage the guards at all.
- Nothing is really interactable and nothing seemed to be hurting my at all.
- You can just find the money by running around, nothing is stopping you. There seems to be no obstacles, so there is nothing to overcome and as a result no challenge.
- The game tries to use the internet connection. I don't really get why...
I'm guessing you run out of time, but decided to publish anyway. We all know how hard those time constraints can be :smile: So, keep at it and don't get discouraged!
As for the game, I think that audio is the biggest thing you could have done in terms of effort to result ratio. Adding some free song as a background music would already help the game make a much better impression. Also for your next jam try having smaller scope, to make sure you will manage to get all critical parts of the game done before the deadline. Good luck in your future jams!
P.S. Shadow wizard money gang, we love robbing banks
