I bet theres a good game waiting to be pulled out of this with carefully designed levels built around the reflect and maybe a few new magical abilities :)
Well done. Congratulations.
I just need some proper kind of end and a loading screen.
The dialog was fitting and humorous.
The theme was well used as a motivating story element.
Graphics, Sound and Mood played well together and of good quality.
The dark areas in the start area of the last scene where kinda frightening^^ I was glad to see that my fireballs could be used for light. One could use this element in future levels.
Overall very nice game and I had fun playing it through!
Thanks to everyone for playing and giving feedback, glad you liked it.
I do agree that the difficulty in the first level could have been toned down a bit, it can be hard to time the reflecting. In retrospect I probably should have expanded the first level instead of adding two more levels as I didn't have enough time to add interesting gameplay in the last two levels, but I was stuck on the idea of having one level for each crystal.
