*About*

Play as the Little Witch who is being forced to do work for once in her life. Deliver potions to the many magic users of the realm and try to get the highest score!


*Author's Note*

I had a lot of fun making this, so I hope you'll enjoy playing it just as much! :)

If only I could've written less spaghetti and instead made more content. But ah well!

P.S. I hope my questionable music and "voice acting (the sound effects)" doesn't make your ears bleed. XD


*Tools Used:*

  • Unity
  • Piskel
  • Audacity
  • Bosca Ceoil

I love the sound effects and mechanics and story! Hitbox is a bit larger on the spike, but other than that it is perfect!

Really fun game! I quite liked the dialogue before the missions, it gave them a lot more flavor.

I enjoyed the dialog between the hag and the witch. I also liked how you can fail miserablely in a level yet still able to continue to the next day!

I really enjoyed the super bounce on the mushrooms, feels good to land them.

Nice! The presentation has a lot of charm to it. The little cutscenes, going through the week. I like the extra conditions to add some variation to the missions even when they repeat.

I love the concept! But i think u need to re-organize the collision again, there are some parts that are too big. but overall i like it

I'm way too bad at these kind of games, but it was fun anyway.
The story, artstyle and music are working really good together.

Nice job!

Seems like I'm not the only one who got a terrible job at delivering potions hahaha. But it's a good concept and I love the writing :)

Nice game, I enjoy the little stories in each level, it adds depth to the game's plot. The way the little witch jumps is quite entertaining. The mushrooms and jellyfish that help with bouncing are also very cute.

✔️ Nice dialogue and voice acting!

✔️ Controls felt good; world was just big enough to keep it interesting without it being a drag - overall great gameplay!

✔️ Graphics fit well with the witch aesthetic.

➖ Sometimes I would miss important dialogue information because I would click to have the dialogue fully show, but it would already be completed because it was so short and it would go onto the next dialogue.

⭐ Overall: Nice little platformer!

I enjoyed this! I liked the dialogue between levels and it was nice making use of one location for each mission letting you learn the layout. I do wish there was a little on screen indicator of where the delivery location is but otherwise, it felt quite easy to get about. The 3 star rating with little challenges was something I wanted to do in my own game but I didn't have time for so it was really nice seeing a challenge system in your game and working well!

I feel like you managed to do a lot within the time. Very nice!

Nice game. My one suggestion would be to put a compass or something on screen. Yes, every grown adult should know North/East/South/West, but that didn't stop me from messing it up twice in a row.

The controls, art, and concept where really good. My only complaint was the audio for mission giver. Cool concept but can blow out your ears with head phones on.

This is a solid compo entry, and feels well polished, I especially like the completion animation and voice sounds.

Great work!
