The controls respond very well.  The music was nice and I liked the graphics and effects too.  For me it was not so obvious firing with right click. The first time I fired the other side of the staff the bullet (comet) went upwards, so I understood that you have to rotate the staff and aim with the other side.  But at the end I understood and was a lot of fun. Good job and nice wizard :D"}],"images":["ld32\/51935-578a0f4c6243a40baa0e0d8620fd97a3.jpg","ld32\/51935-8b13996c7ae214784e380d4325dbadc9.jpg","ld32\/51935-5d8251dd7684493ac453203a9cfa8b42.jpg","ld32\/51935-58f32633664d661c3d7370cb9555e3fc.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.crosstales.com\/en\/games\/UnconventionalTower\/play.html","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.crosstales.com\/en\/games\/UnconventionalTower\/UnconventionalTower-windows.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.crosstales.com\/en\/games\/UnconventionalTower\/UnconventionalTower-mac.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.crosstales.com\/en\/games\/UnconventionalTower\/UnconventionalTower-linux.zip","text":"Linux"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"10989","g_author":"51935","g_event":"LD32","g_eventkey":"27","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"11023","g_title":"Unconventional Tower","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"595","g_commentcount":"25","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/51935-shot0-1429579175.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/51935-shot1-1429579175.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/51935-shot2-1429579175.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/51935-shot3-1429579175.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Unconventional Tower\r\n\r\nDescription:\r\nOnce upon a time there was a mighty wizard who designed and forged most of the epic weapons you know from any fantasy game (remember Sulfuras?). That time is long gone.\r\nHundreds of years have passed without any incidents. But at one point, the darkest of all creatures began to creep to the surface\u2026 And they are after the wizards gold!\r\nThe wise wizard knew about that long before it happened and began to research on the creatures and how to stop them.\r\n'Long before it happened' means three days ago. \r\nUnfortunately, the wizard wasn\u2019t able to create a powerful weapon to defeat the darkness itself, but at least he found a way to slow and eventually destroy the creeps. Plus he found a way to teleport his gold to an other dimension, but that takes time and the creeps (we shall call them taxmen) are on their way! \r\n\r\nIn this unconventional game you can not only control the wizard\u2019s staff, which serves as two weapons in one, but also the tower on which the wizard stands itself!\r\nThe staff has two properties: From one end you can shoot \u201enormal\u201c bullets that rout the enemies. If you turn it around, the other end of the staff shoots a mighty lightning bolt which destroys all enemies in its pathway.\r\n\r\n==================\r\nThis is my first game ever. I'd appreciate feedback! Thanks for playing! :)","title":"Unconventional Tower"}
