For more than a thousand years, a wizard family relied their power into the legendary Phoenix, but unfortunately, for that wizard family, the power was fading…
This is a tale of a brave wizard, fighting to reborn the Phoenix using her last remnants on the top of the Phoenix Tower.

Really loved the concept -- the "magnetism" power made for some great interactions! Nice work!

Great concept with great execution! The art and audio could use some refining which I know is too much too ask i a jam, but good job :D

Great idea and nice execution. Magnetism for fire and water creates a interesting dynamic. Platforming feels smooth and controllable. Well done!

A nice idea and pleasant, if simple, graphics. It took me a bit to figure out how to direct the torch effectively.

The controls felt too sensitive, though. It felt like all the surfaces were slippery :)

Wonderful game!
The magnetism is tricky, but it's completely fair.
In a weird way, this reminds me of Ico, with the fire is the companion you need to bring a long.
I could see a version where it's allowed to extinguish, but that you need to ignite it again to defeat puzzles etc. Really exciting concept.

I really liked the concept and the gimmick, and the art is well polished! I found the controls a bit cumbersome, I think they could use a little polish (most of the keyboards can't hold many inputs simultaneously).
All in all, great effort and great job!

Nice idea, some mecanics are fine event though I feel like it s a bit clumsy sometimes

Also the audio is not fitting at all for me :( no audio would have been best almost!
Overall a nice entry, with a bit of refinement it could be turned into a fun little game :)

It was fun to play. I liked the little touches like thinking of the torch ('torch?') when finishing the level. Good job! :)

Loved it! Great concept - made me think in some parts. I realized there was no music at the end - that would have been fun. Other than that - great graphics - great puzzle elements - great action - I defeated a boss!

Yes! solid game mechanic, good controls, trick jump city!

Intersting mechanic, though it's a little challenging to move with the torch (i got stuck on a ledge for way too long). Real potential to be a larger game
