Really liked it. Still rough, but you can see the makings of a fun game.

Wow ! The game is hard to understand, but casting the different spells is really fun !

Plus the art style is cool, good job !

Fun Game! I am not sure what the target was but it was fun to run around with an army of minions ;)

Awesome game!
The movement was a little too fast, but the game idea overall was great! I liked the mechanic and I could see where you wanted to go with the game.

Great job!

It's interesting, challenging, and fun. I managed to kill the knights in the surrounding rooms, but always when I went to the rest of dungeon, I died for no obvious reason (my health was almost full and my energy was more than half). I did not find much use for offensive spells, I just made skeletons and run from the knights.

I died too many times tryng to cast spells at low life LOL, but I think I got the concept, given some tweeks on the AI and on the dificulty (sometimes I had to get lucky on the spawn so I wouldn't get overwelmed as soon as I killed the first soldier) this could easily take off, good job man.

One of the best games I've played today: a bit unpolished, but it's great for a jam entry - interesting and unique take on the theme, addictive mechanics, good combination of art and sound; would definitely play more if there was a "full" version. Great job!

Really like the art ! It's a pretty cool game with interesting ideas. I really like the fact that you can buy spell to cast them later. It's very basic but I liked it. Great job !

Some of the upgrades were too powerful (at the start you are super weak, then you buy the power regeneration and sudenly you are super powerfull, but then you find stronger enemies and you are weak again. But overall, it was great! Great music and great grafics. (i died like 5 times casting my spells xD).
Nice job!
