A little buggy, but this is the best game I've made. I got lost in the world, I got lost in the mechanics, ideas exploded out of me. I made 10 levels, I only stopped because of time constraints.
So look. This is Nya Koori, an ice mage. She doesn't like to hurt stuff, but when there's an infestation of dinosaurs, what can you do?
Stunning them and throwing them back to their world through a magic portal, that's what.
controls:
* left and right arrows to move, X to jump
* Z to cast freeze spell
* when enemies are fully frozen, Down Arrow performs a Dash that knocks them over
* then you can catch them
* then you throw them at the portal by Z+X at the same time
Repeat until they're all back home.
Obviously inspired by the great bubble bobble, liquid kids, rainbow islands and snow bros. So basically Taito in the 80ies :D

Huge thanks to r0j0hound from the Construct 2 community. He didn't help me with anything specifically this time, but every time I search through the forums, he's already answered all my questions.
The rest is me. Pixelart and animation in photoshop CS5, music in FLstudio. This time I used VOPM, a free sega genesis sound chip emulator. Chirp Lab and some FLstudio again for the sfx. Also a surprising use of the screencapture software LiceCap, to which I owe the tutorial replay. It's just a tiny tiny crystal clear gif!
To-do: more levels! Bug fixes, mainly the platform movement. Comb the spaghetti code.
Please let me know what you think. I love LD!
