Use your spells book to defend yourself, but be aware: spells will cost you your life / time as well!

One last note: healing powerups will randomly appear on the map, so keep moving and look for them!

(*) From "Du oferoj" ("Two sacrifices", in Esperanto)

  • Mouse move: aim
  • Mouse left button: shoot

I really like the mix of zombies and wizards. Both great genres. Good job!

Thanks Daniel!

It was funny. My first idea was a guy with a shotgun against regular zombies, but then I could't find a "logical" reason for shooting life / time, so I came up with the wizards theme :-P

my player kept moving toward the bottom of the screen.

@jannick-larsen That happened to me when I miss-clicked outside of the game window. Could be that, or the player keeps doing that always?

Solid mechanics and gameplay. I would have loved for a kill count or a "goal". It felt smooth, switching spells and dealing with the zombies were fresh. Good work!

I had a bug where the game glitched and froze whenever I fired anything. (HTML5 online version)
I downloaded the windows version and all was fine.

Here we have it folks. The world's first top-down ASMR shooter.
The mechanics were interesting, they have serious scalability for a larger scale action adventure type game, whether you keep the top-down camera or not.

Nicely done. Cheers!

@loligxp I am glad that you liked it! Opinions from friends range from "I loved it" to "Do not do that again" xD Thanks for playing!

@gettingrekt Yeah, a kill count or something more deeper that just surviving would have been nice. Thanks for playing and the feedback!

@icegold A friend notified me about that bug but I could not reproduce it on my computer :'(

I didn't know about "ASMR". Was it good or bad ASMR with this game? :-P I didn't think about that scalability neither, I'll think about it.

Thanks for playing!

@island-jam-2-group-3 lol tough question, whether or not the ASMR was good depends on whether or not you're into it cause it's such a divisive thing.
No problem, hopefully I'll see more from you next Jam!

I was a bit confused at first because the web version kind of bug on my browser. I tried it in local and it works perfectly, that's fun and smart. Well done.

Unfortunately I had a bug where the game would freeze when shooting. I liked the idea and it felt good to move around. It's a shame about the bug though :frowning2:

@yorsh sad to hear about that bug, but glad that downloaded version worked well. Thanks for playing!

@wisstopher did the bug happend in web version only or also in downloaded version? It seems to be a bug affecting "only" the browser version. Thanks for playing!

Game played fine, I wish there was a bit more definition in the background or some land marks when you are not near the edge so you can 'tell' you are moving around. I had a little chuckle when your mechanic was similar to my games, as a result the mechanics came very fluidly. For awhile I thought I'd never die in the game but slowly but surely my life drained and I got a game over. Great job with the game.

The online version had a bug. You should probably remove the online version if it is not going to work.

@frescogusto , @wowbagger : sorry, I completely forgot about trying to fix that bug or removing the online version as @wowbagger suggests ^^U

@izunah yeah, I though about adding land marks but lacked time. I have to check your game to see that awesome mechanics! :-P

@kiv I honestly don't know if that is sarcasm or not xDD

Thanks all for playing!
