You are the wicked nemesorceress Damnatia Malefacula. In the wake of the king's death, you have kidnapped the rightful heiress to the throne in an attempt to seize power in her stead. Now prevent one foolhardy peasant from rescuing her with the help of your flawless deathtraps, and, if those fail, your flawed backup deathtraps. And, of course, at the worst you can draw on your incredibly deadly spells. You'll make short work of him!

Wow, this was remarkably charming! At points, not very fun per se, but I was smiling anyway. Totally blew my expectations out of the water. Love the art style, everything is smooth. Some points were needlessly frustrating - ESPECIALLY the deadly pendulum.
The best thing about this game is the sheer amount of variety. It was short, but I enjoyed every second of it. It's unfortunate that you couldn't any audio in there, however.
I literally typed "This is a good companion to Terra Tam." before looking at the other comments and noticing Porp said roughly the same thing. I think I could happily play another 6-8 Ludum Dare entries along these lines. I did like the feints toward Wario Ware-ism in this one.
It's not really that often you find a game you can honestly say has a good sense of *comedy*, and understands things like comic timing...
Haha funny job! I like this game. Very good ideas and a good gamejam entry. Next time please add sound effects or music, thi swould give a bit more immersion.
Hilarious game! I love the little details you added to interactions and things that happen while you're playing, such as the spiderwebs and the "falling-into-the-mouth" business. Took me by surprise and was really enjoyable. Great work! :)

i always look for your game first when Ludum Dare is done
Pity there's no audio, it would really improve the experience.
Though I'd like it to be more dinamic, it was very funny.
