You play as a magical skeleton ghost who has a bone to pick with the local Hoverboard Convention. Their neon clothing, fancy technology, and dance music has to stop.

In this Nuclear Throne style shooter, use various magic spells to clear out the halls of the convention center. Then descend to the next floor and repeat the process. None shall be spared.

It's time to make this convention... unconventional...

I like it. It just needs more ball pits

Nice game.
Left mouse weapon seems kind of pointless, because right button is so much more powerful, everything dies before mana runs out.
Sometimes it was hard to find enemies.

Classic and fun. Please, next time, also implement arrows as controls, not everybody has a Qwerty keyboard.

Although i really hate bullet hell games, i enjoyed playing yours. The visuals are polished and sounds make sense.

Great game overall. Only little innovation. Instructions would be nice.

Very fun Game! Appealing Graphics and Humor too!
At first i thought that it seemed a bit too easy, since you could walk through every level with the beam and no need to use your normal attack even once. But the difficulty actually has a neat curve. I like it, and also its Skeletons.

Nice graphics and accurate controls. I don't get any score when killing enemies with my primary weapon (fireball). The later levels are just bullet hell which can be a good thing if you are into that. For me it would be better if the game started a little slower, I keep running into hordes of enemies very early in the game.

Very addictive gameplay!

The gameplay and presentation is very solid although this could benefit greatly from a little bit more balancing to get the challenge level just right. The weapons were very strongly biased towards using the special attacks and the randomness in a level's challenge seemed to vary quite wildly. The camera view also felt a little claustrophobic.

Nevertheless, it's a fun little timewaster that I'd gladly play again if the rough edges would be smoothed out somewhat.

Funny take of the theme! We had a similar idea early on. Great work overall, well polished.
