Well done guy. =]

The artwork in this is great! I especially liked the variety of transformations for the defeated opponents.

My main criticism is that it's pretty repetitive, though that's kind of inherent to the gameplay mechanic. Maybe it'd be better if the player's spell glyph was randomized each time?

Pulled out a drawing tablet and went to town. This game was really unique. Loved it.

The art is great, just awesome!
I pulled out my drawing tablet too to defeat my enemies. Very cool and unique game.

Great concept! I found it a bit repetitive in its current form, but I can see how it could evolve into a more complex and really cool game. The art is great - really classic and fun.

Freaking amazing!

Nice dueling game. I like the pressure your opponent puts on you and the artwork is nice. I'd love to see this developed further!

Beautiful game! I should try playing this on my Surface Pro with the pen ;)

Really cool! The art is gorgeous! You guys did a great job! :)

Awesome graphics and cool gameplay :)

Two words: eye candy.
I just wish the gameplay was a bit richer... Great entry nonetheless!!

Great Entry!
Long time ago I had this idea but your execution is spot on!
would like to have a mobile game like this!

The graphics are outstanding and the main mechanic pretty well done although it is repetitive very fast, maybe different shapes each time we complete one might help a bit.

Top notch graphics but gameplay gets old quite quickly. Felt like the shapes should change once you'd successfully drawn them to increase variety.

Really like the graphics and the idea of drawing magic glyphs. Also good humor! Liked it!

Nice work. Neat idea and colorful presentation.

I first tried this with my laptop touchpad, it did not go to well. Then I connected my drawing tablet and I DOMINATED THE ENTIRE REALM! All hail Lord Wacom!

(Also bonus points for the Ghibli reference :D)

Awesome work guys :D

Awesome art and really unique gameplay, congrats!

Nice game you got there! It's practically impossible with the touchpad, do-able with the mouse and masterful with a tablet XD The art is very well done, although little variation, and wished there was audio, it would've increased a lot the imersion. The idea also brought me back to Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone for the PC XD Good job, Gabriel and Sparrow! Cheering for your entry!

I liked the graphics for this game, and the gameplay was simple yet addicting, kept trying to beat all those darn wizards!

Fun game :)

gorgeous graphics. interesting concept. wish you could have more shapes to draw. other than that very nice use of the theme

God I was bad at this game. But thought it was great. Really simple, but lovely implementation. Marvellous graphics.

Great game! One to play with tablet. It would work well as a mobile.

this is very pretty, and the kitten is so cute :)

Thanks everyone for your kind comments, we hear all of your criticism and suggestions and are coming up with new ways to make the game better!
We are also retroactively reviewing and rating your games if we haven't already done so.
You are all very awesome!

amazing game mechanics & pixel!!! think this would be great for mobile device

Art is absolutely stunning. There must be a great job in programming. But it has not been fun for me draw over and over again the same figure.

Nice graphics and great concept!

Nice graphics, but like others have said, needs some additional glyphs that you have to draw.

Nice Art!
First fight: drawing one glyph so much times is boooooring. Yea, I don't have a skill at this level, but you should make this fight faster.
Second fight: good
Other fights: hard and booring after death. May be you should add small glyphs to delete enemy's line (if it so good), or to swap your main glyphs/

I like this a lot! I accidentally chose one of the most difficult shapes, my trackball was so uncooperative, but I manage to win at the end, mwa ha ha! :D:D:D Sweet sweet pixels!

This is nice - simple mechanics - but with added pressure. Another mechanic of some sort would be nice, but the graphics make up for it! Nice job!

Gameplay is a bit boring after the first spells, but the graphics are really nice. Adding any kind of magical sounds would have been relly nice too.

Good job!

The assets are fantastic!
I love the interpretation of the theme, it's really cool to play even with a touchpad on a laptop!
Good works!

Awesome artwork, makes me kinda sad there was no music to go with it :(

Usage of theme is a bit lacking, there are shapes, and when you win the opponent is shapeshifted, but it doesn't really affect the gameplay at all :(

Aside from that, pretty cool, challenging game! Good luck!

Great graphics and really awesome mechanic! It was hard but at least I had a fun time getting wrecked!

Very nice graphics!

Nice graphics, gameplay is shallow but the game is nice for what it is. :) It can be improved and extended with many other ideas.

Fantastic graphics. I should've pulled out my stylus and touch screen, but it worked pretty well with the mouse. Would love to see variety in the shapes you trace, and clearer feedback on how much you got/missed for a particular trace, but for a Jam game this is a wonderful entry.

First, Ty for the comment you did on my game :)
Your game is pretty good guys :) really fun, I'd like to see some sort of rpg that use this as a combat system ! :)

Played every character, i'm sad i couldn't go further than two rounds because the graphics are so awesome, agree with randomizing spells :)

This is a cool idea - and it's really fun to draw the shapes. I agree that having randomized spell shapes for the player would be awesome, but I like the base game you've got here as well. Thanks for posting.

Excellent pixel art. I found the difficulty a little extreme after two wins. The third opponent is just way too fast. Still fun.

Awesome work, guys!
It's surprisingly HARD to play with a laptop's touchpad ahahah. I wish it wasn't so slow, but it's really well made in such a short time. Kudos! :)

Really nice art and animation, simple and fun gameplay, nice use of theme. I tried 'breaking' the drawing system only to find that it was very well-coded and robust! If you're planning on expanding the game, I'd consider giving the characters more than one shape to draw.

Really beautiful, and tricky to master. As others have suggested, randomizing the glyph each time could make it less repetitive. I think it would be a really good multiplayer game on mobile.

Well done, nice graphics and fun game !

very nice pixel art! i wish the game were more engaging though.

Funny mini-game!! I would like to play it in my iphone!! Sometimes is a bit repetitive, but iy's ok.

The graphics are soooo good! The game mechanic is very cute, and has a good balance between 'Should I go faster and rougher' or 'Should I go slower and more precise?'

Pretty fun! :D Well done, guys! ❤

Amazing art work. Really hard with a mouse! Had to learn to balance getting the shape perfect and doing it quickly. Would like to see where this goes next :)

Super idea, and super game. Well done.

It seems like it could be an interesting entry if some more variety was added into it. The most obvious idea that comes to my mind (and I'm not the only one, it seems) is having the glyphs randomised each time, so that the player needs to react accordingly (each wizard could have own set of glyphs). If that was implemented, I think the gameplay would work rather well.

I rather liked the artwork and animation in this game, though what I'd prefer is having one animation for each winning/losing wizard pair. So that, say, brown wizard would be polymorphing opponent, while the red wizard would zap them instead. Right now it seems each time you win, you get the same result depending on the level, and each time you lose, you get the same critter depending on your wizard; instead having spells for each winning/losing wizard pair could better establish wizards' "personality", in a way.

Pretty solid and complete entry, overall. A bit of pity there's no lich battle, though I guess I'd prefer playing that in a more various setting (and I wouldn't really want to have the lich spam spellpieces even more than the 3rd level wizard currently does).

Loved the art and the concept, really well done.

nice drawing and mechanics. Older idea, but you did it and that counts for something. That vader head was superb. Needs sounds, i just made them up in my mind to make it exciting. i wanted to be able to draw super fast. xD

Really unique graphics and sense of achievement! Really nice symbols too, it was fun to draw them for me. But, I still agree with most of the comments here, that to make shapes vary each time so the game does not feel repetitive over time.

Very cool use of the theme!!! I was missing the music and sound effects of course but the game was super cool. I was turned into a cat at the beginning because i had no idea what was going on lol but then I quickly recovered! Loved it!

Gorgeous! Pixels! Om nom nom nom! One of my favorites so far! Thanks you.

Nice game and a nicely put together package. It's a little impossible to play on a touchpad but that isn't your fault. All together a very polished and well done game!

Love the game, shame there is no music. Even with no audio great game loved it.

Hello! Cool game :)

Interesting mechanic, and the art style is really nice.

One problem I found is that the game tends to get a little repetitive. It would be interesting to change shapes during fight. Maybe it would get too difficult?

There is a mobile game that (if you are not familiar with) would surely serve as inspiration for your project if you wish to expand it. It's called Magic Touch, go check it!

Overall, good job! Congratulations for your entry.

Very good pixel art and key frame animation!
The mechanic is good but if there is some changes to the magic curve during the continual drawing would be better, a little bit board now.

I think this game has the makings of a good multiplayer game. Maybe have a randomized list of drawings that both players must draw?

Nice! Try for some music and sounds next time :)

fresh idea :D

The art is great in this! I love the style and the atmosphere it creates. I think this game could be really expanded upon by choosing different kinds of magic spells that you want to cast, maybe some are more complicated to draw but create different effects. Very nice entry! It became a lot easier with my tablet too! Haha. :)

Wow! Really cool artwork and animations. Difficulty is to high for me. Missing the sound. Keep up the good work.

The gameplay gimmick seems to work pretty well. But drawing the same shape over and over isn't very fun.

The graphics are well done.

I really liked this! The drawing mechanic was really cool... I should try out my drawing tablet on this! Great job.

Really fun to play!

Great game and nice mechanics, I really like the graphics!

Amazing artstyle! Gameplay is nice and would be awesome on a tablet. Good job!

Great game, would love to see it expanded upon into a phone game with friends! :)

Awesome concept! Graphics are really great too. Would be nice if there were more variety in what you had to draw, also some more feedback would be helpful - it wasn't clear how close you actually had to be. Still fun, nice work.

Controls were pretty hard using the mouse so I decided to play this on my Surface Pro 3 instead (using the pen and touchscreen) which worked like an absolutely charm. Anyway, it's a pretty awesome concept and I can definitely see this working on mobile/tablet devices but as someone said before, it would be more interesting if the spell glyphs were randomised each time.

Been meaning to review this one for a while now, but only just found the time.
Firstly, I love the art and the gameplay concept. The drawing element really reminded me of WarioWare: Touched on the DS (perhaps a platform this kind of game is best suited to) but I did have a lot of trouble getting the shapes right with my mouse. (The margin for error seemed somewhat slim considering that your opponent draws pixel perfect shapes!)
I do have a graphics tablet, so I'll probably take another shot at this later with that, but since that isn't exactly commonplace hardware outside of this particular audience (ie. other developers and artists), I'd probably say that making the game a touch easier to play with a mouse would be a good idea.

Overall though, I enjoyed it. Good job! :)

Fantastic graphics. Cool idea, and well executed. I think some of the signs were harder, but that's cool.

Would be cool if the glyphs were random for a bigger challenge or something like that.

Nice!

But this game is supper annoying :D need to get a graphic tablet to perform. Interesting idea and pixel graphics. Good luck!
