A Clash Between Crocs


Greenie the crocodile wizard is chilling at the top of his volcano home, practicing his spells and generally having a pleasant day. There are no cars, no spiders, and definitely no rabbits to be seen.

In the distance Greenie hears a shout. With some dismay he realizes the shouter is his arch-rival Brownie, who lives on the next mountain over.

"It brings a tear to my eye to see such incompetence in the occult arts! Your last invocation was barely even a cantrip!" Brownie taunts across the valley.

The two wizard lizards trade insulting remarks about the other's magical puissance for some time. Eventually words are no longer sufficient.

"I'll show you a cantrip, you pretentious bottom-feeder!" roars Greenie; he sticks his tail in his mouth and starts rolling down the hill.

If either crocodile comes unstuck and can no longer maintain their magical loop, they will have to yield victory to the other. Get down to Brownie, collect your spells along the way, and make sure you're the one left rolling!

And when you defeat Brownie, well... there is always another mountain and another rival :)

Controls


Move mouse to change direction.

Avoid obstacles, pick up spells and use spells against enemies.

The faster you roll, the faster you will loop through your spell wheel. When your hat points at the active (highlighted) spell it will automatically be cast, and the next spell in the loop will become the new active spell.

When you pick up a spell, left-click at any time to switch it with the active spell. This happens when the mouse button is released.

If the highlighted spell is the same as the picked up spell, they will combine into a more powerful version of the spell. (Holding down the left mouse button will prevent this from happening, if you'd prefer to put the new spell somewhere else.)

Press R to restart. Press Esc to exit.
