Wizards need not only quick wits but a good grasp of the 3 basic elements of wizardry: fire for burning, ice for not burning, and purple for being awesome.

You're not quite there yet, hence the 10 second trials of wits and mastery.

Fire and ice need to be activated before use(mouse 1 and mouse 2 respectively to select, and once more to activate), while purple can't really be used, you just select it.

Fire shoots a fireball. It pushes things.

Ice summons an elongated high density ice cube. You can walk across it.

Purple makes you faster and lets you jump higher. It goes away when you activate any other element.

You must reach the purple portal in each of the 6 levels.

I really liked the concept for this, but the collisions were a bit of a mess for me, so I couldn't get very far :/

Awesome idea, Id love to see this concept pushed to the next level. Personally, I think the cast animations took a little too long, but thats a design decision and I can respect it. Solid entry, great job :D

Great concept. I felt very confused at first however. I didn't realize the squares at the start were buttons and i clicked level 3 to start. I also got a bug on the web version which wouldn't use mouse movement to look around. Good job overall!

very impressive. it took me a few tries to figure it out, but once I got the hang of it it was rather enjoyable. nicely executed. the video helped me figure out what I was having trouble with.

An interesting puzzle-like entry, the ascetics reminds me a lot of the old hexen games. Cool entry andrew!

Works on Linux.
Delay on fire was bit bad. Trying to push the box and the plank. Nearly got to the end. But didn't :-(
Also mouse sens is way to high.
But good entry overall.
