Time Wizard by DracoSense

[raw]
made by DracoSense for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

In Time Wizard 2 I fix many bugs and fix monsters (Time Wizard 1 was on LD47 Compo, but it contains too many bugs).

If game crashes you can try restart it. Items are generated at random and usually they don't crash game.

Critical bugs - pink mechanic (door opener) break game, two teleports broke game

Game about wizard in dungeon. He live in time loop and can jump between loops by portals. Wizard can have up to 3 abilities. Each ability has color and icon. Basic ability in first is teleport. Other slots are empty. One of the main mechanics - player rotation. For attack at right side you should rotate player. Try to open all the doors in one loop

Q/E - rotate player

R - turn on/turn off autorotation

WASD/ arrows - move

1, 2, 3 - choose ability (in the left top corner)

alt + 1,2,3 - change ability (get new things from ground)

space/shift - Activate chosen ability

You can have maximum 3 abilities

Each ability has icon and color.

Icons

-teleport (spiral) - create teleport to this place in this loop from next loop, you start next loop. This level will be saved and it loads when you jump into portal from the next level.

  • mechanic - open doors of color

  • canons - can attack monsters

Colors - green / brown / blue

At the top you have timer of current iteration. At the end your mage will return to the start point and level will return to its basic state. But you can jump on previus iterations with portal.

You can get score for destroyed monsters and opened doors. Game have severial bugs? but sometimes it works.

Hey, sorry I wasn't able to really play because the game threw an null ref exception whenever I would try to charge an ability.

Your html5 version does not start and the download also fails for me using the first ability. Maybe fix the breaking bugs and reupload? that is allowed within the rules. If you do let me know i will try to play it again because it looks promising

I tried the Linux version. The directions and rotation controls worked fine but it seems that i could not use a spell.
I think your intent was to make a game similar to minit which seemed like a good idea given the theme. The visuals are simple but make a coherent whole.
This looks like an interesting game but from my experience and the other comments it looks like you need to do some more tests and explain the gameplay a little more next time. Keep trying !

Hi, I like the concept of your game. Turning the wizard to use the different power is nice. However, sometimes when I use a power the game crashes. Hope it goes well for you if you try to fix the bugs !

Hmm.. couldnt really understand what I was supposed to do. It seemed complex enough to require some sort of tutorial

I agree that the mechanics are quite complex to grasp in the first minutes of playing. A tutorial would be great addition to the game. But well done!

Sorry, but the game is completely unplayable in its current state (I am on Windows 10). It was crashing constantly for me.

@kszaku You can try restart it. Items are generated at random and usually they don't crash game. Two teleports and pink mechanic (for open doors) are usuall crash game.
