Surprisingly addictive! I really enjoyed this! I can get 1000 points but I can't escape. Very nice "Special move" by the way, the art is awesome!

I loved the sound effects! The special move one was especially good.

This is pretty fun - I would like a small tutorial if possible so i'm not so confused on what to do :)

No dungeon can hold me, for I am a wizard!
Interesting game concept, fits the theme perfectly. Nice and original too.
Great work.

Weird but fun! :) At first it was hard to understand what to do but in the end I managed to escape dungeon with score 130.

Good job on your game but I just kept dying so I must be doing something wrong

I MADE IT OUT ALIVE!
Fun game. It was the correct amount of silly and small, with fun graphics, and a surprisingly addictive soundtrack.

Simple but efficient.

Maybe you should write a tutorial how to control the character. It's hard to understand. Thanks

interesting cool game, took me a while to figure out how to charge and jump, some instructions would be nice, well done

I don't understand what makes you fall off, but once you get the timing down this is pretty fun.

I'm not sure I completely understood the controls :( I do read all your instructions and try a few times to figure things out... but I keep dying :D Help!

The most important mechanic to understand is that you need to complete ONE small jump FIRST before you can charge the bigger jumps. When you start, do a small jump first. When you die, do a small jump when you come back.
To practice, just barely hold it down at first. You might not jump, but you won't die either. Figure out the least amount of time you need to hold charge to make a small jump, and then chain that into bigger jumps.
Also, once you complete a jump, when you touch down you have limited time to do another jump or you will fall off.
Thanks for playing everyone!

Much harder than you think but it definitely has that just one more try feel to it. Fits the theme very well and I liked the mechanics a lot (although I still have no idea what the special move button actually does).
You can't do that to wizard, nooooo :'( !
Nice gameplay however :p. A lack of feedback maybe, like a gauge ?
