Ludum Dare #56compo
Wizard | Spec Ops
Take control of 3 different wizard characters each with their own unique spells of choice, in order to capture or destroy all butterflies harassing an island controlled by North Wizard Federation.
I don't even know why they hate butterflies, but they really do.
It's year 2407 after all, so no telling how much priorities have shifted to interesting directions.
Map is actually quite small - but the challenge is... butterflies are REALLY small.

Instructions
After picking character, goal of the game is to simply find all the tiny butterflies scattered across the map and eliminate them. There is 200 total, so if the bar seems near-full but you can't find last stragglers, you can try changing direction or returning to center to regain bearings.Map is actually quite small - but the challenge is... butterflies are REALLY small.

I also like how you reused the water sprite surrounding the island for the Water Wizard's water magic as well, that's a pretty smart move. Also Fabric Wizard is definitely something new. I imagine his power to be tearing fabric of realities. You could make an entire game out of this concept!
Some things to note:
- I feel like the green bar that shows level progress lies to me, even if I do know that the unfilled portion is very small. I feel like it would be better if I could see a number on the bar.
- Fire wizard's unlimited projectile length also makes it very easy to cheese the game with him. Nothing is stopping you from standing in the middle of the screen and spamming fireball in all directions until all the butterflies are gone.
Anyways, as for why they're hating on butterflies, maybe they're trying to prevent a butterfly effect... or maybe they're trying to cause it?
Water feels best / most powerful. Swoosh tiny ones away ^^
