Idea is really interesting and engages you to be creative a bit, but for me gameplay was really repetitive. When you find a strong combination of spells (ray + anything, basically) you just kill anything and dont have any problems. I would have liked if you had to cook spells on the fly and maybe if same spell shapes and effects had a small cooldown, but maybe I just love to torture myself with hard games, so don't bother)
Overall great concept, good art and fine soundtrack, very solid.
No it's not just you, I received multiple feedbacks saying the same thing : the game is quite easy which reduces the potential of the spellcraft system. I struggled a bit with the balance and in the end made it too easy I think. But I'm glad you liked it!
It's always really fun to craft your own spells, this game was no different. I survived the entiire 15 minutes. And onto the details:
Creativity:
The game fits the theme by an inch. Taking "scaling" in a roguelite sense. The games mechanics are really fun, unfortunetly the game was too easy, i found myself not using haste, teleport or most of the spells, opting to just use ray with all damaging effects. I liked the first and final boss, (though i did one-shot it) The game suffers from poor performance later on due to too many particles.
Art:
The game looks pretty good for one made in 4 days. The art could use some work, but it works and is quite uniform, nothing sticks out. The designs of the bosses are cool. The UI is what bothered me a bit. At the beginning i felt bombarded with information, i feel like Souls and Spirit cancel each other, there is no need for upgrading spells through orbs if they're limited by mana, and vice-versa. The spell making UI was quite bland, and could use a bit of graphics.
Sound:
The game could use a little more soundeffects, it also would be nice for there to be boss music, though the music in the game was pretty good.
Overall great submission, you took 15 minutes of my time and made me enjoy it :)
Its a Genius idea imho! Controls are so smooth and it feels nice to play. It took a Bit to understand the crafting System but if youve got it, its a lot of fun!! Very well!!!
