hey, f doesn't seem to do anything. Can't get past the first stage.

Great teleportation system! My game crashed when I got to the ghost. I'll try another browser, congratulations!

I couldn't figure out how to absorb an ability after spamming F, spamming F and clicking, holding F, tapping F and different times, and more both at the enemy and at the ability. Not sure if it's broken, or if I was just doing it wrong, but either way I couldn't get past the second level. More intuitive controls, or a better explanation of how they work might be in order.

It seams a good idea, but I don't understand how works Absorb Spell and how to use absorbed abilities. But it looks like a good old so is nice ^^!

Pretty fun game, but the controls are quite hard to use. Also, not sure how it fits with one room. Still, great job.

Interesting concept. I really like the music for the game. Cute pixel art.

Awesome animations! Audio fit the visuals really well. Loved the use of Alice and the keys as well. Couldn't beat the knight!

Interesting concept. It took me a couple of mins to figure out how to absorb spells but when you get the hang of it is really fun! And about the graphics... that floor color doesn't fit with the other sprites. It would've been nice if you had used the floor that is in the first screenshot. Still, well done!

This took a while to understand how to play. At first, I was trying to absorb the crown! Silly me.

The game is pretty fun, and I'm impressed at the number of levels. Some parts with the hazards seem confusing as to how to avoid them (the vertical line), but I take it you have to dash to avoid them. I like the art of the enemies and characters, and the music's fitting.

Didn't know what I could do against the knight! Particles would also spice this up nicely, the movement controls are fluid and fast which was nice.

It needs some time to get used controlls, but then it is quite chellenging - so fun to play :D Good work

Very nice! Had a lot of fun with this one. Huge Alice fan so I'm very fond of this theme.

The music is awesome, and it looks and feels great. Takes a little while to get used to the controls, but it's fluid and fun once you get the hang of it. The little evil guys are adorable :)

Really like your style! I don't know why but my favorite bit is when she picks up the crown each time.

Spell absorption felt a bit weird. But the rest of the game is great. Well done!
Ganon15 Dec 2016, 05:13
Awesome game! I like the game play, it's unique but easy to learn. The graphics and sound tie in together perfectly to create a retro game feel. Once I got the hang of it, it was a lot of fun to play! Nice job!

oh! Nice!Can I find it on indiexpo? I'm making videos about the games of this Jam, but only about the games hosted also on indiexpo! Tell me if you will add it, so I can include it in my next video ;)

cool idea but could not understand how to absorb. also many control bugs like moving outside of room, space randomly moves player, etc. nice effort.
miaw19 Dec 2016, 17:44
This is very fun!! Maybe the absorb spell ability is a bit confusing (you need to press spacebar near the enemy), but overall quite addicting.
