The fact that the enemies share the color palette of the crystals mostly makes sense once you have the context, in that they're sucking the power out of the crystals. *But* since I didn't see them until they were on a crystal at first, I actually was a bit lost on whether they were targets to shoot or glitches indicating I needed to fire fairy juice at the crystals to help power them back up. So with that confusion and a few instinctive clicks on the fairies I was meant to just mouseover, I lost pretty quickly.
I was confused by the presence of sidescroller style platforms, when I didn't have an actual character to run around, just moving the camera and pointing and clicking.
I also think some more visual feedback for successfully hitting an enemy would be good, I wasn't sure if my shots were connecting most of the time.
It also didn't feel very rewarding to just be stuck fighting until all the crystals died. A way to break out of the loop and win would have been nice.
I like that you can see the other crystals in the background. It'd be really cool if you could also see if enemies were floating towards the crystals in the background so you could start moving towards them in advance
Collecting the pink fairies with the mouse was actually the most fun for me! Shooting the crystals was fun but I didn't like having to guard the crystals and I think in this case going in loop detracted from the game. I think having unique levels where you automatically scroll along and have to collect the fairies would be really pleasant. :D
Great game, and very well done!
4.5/5 from me, only missed some incentive to keep playing. A simple score or time counter would have been enough.
Also collecting fairies feels so great :D I just want to find all fairies instead of shooting
Great job!
