Bury the Vase
Kill filthy humans to acquire their souls, but beware. The more you collect, the darker the world becomes.
Use LEFT CLICK to cast a spell. Be sure to do it in a timely manner. Other than that, enjoy the game!
Bonus points if you can figure out what the name means.

Yes, it's a similar font from DaFont :) (I asked and using fonts in compo is aparently allowed).
As for collecting the souls, there is a point when the game turns dark, at which point you can't progress further. The idea was to make a clicker game, but I only got to start on sunday afternoon, so didn't have time to do much in terms of progression.
Sorry if the lack of progress was disappointing, I mainly wanted to do a game where I didn't use any 3rd party assets and created all the art/animations/effects/sounds/music on my own :)

"Yes, the name is a pun" :D
Anyway, I wish you managed to implement some upgrade mechanics to the game which would make it harder. But I realized you have run out of time so you just had to go with what you had.
I like the graphics (the death animation is really well made) and the music + sound is also very impressive considering you made it all by yourself. The only thing that's lacking this time is the gameplay :(
I hope to see a Ludum game where you dedicate more than 10 hours into the development of it.

I have collected 70 souls and then I died because I haven't figured out how to move. Is that normal?
