Controls

Mouse and Keyboard recommended

  • A and D to move
  • W or Space to jump
  • Click and drag your mouse in the shape of a closed loop to prepare a spell
  • Release left-click to cast the spell!  The number of times the loop crosses itself determines which spell is cast (see the icons in the top right corner)

Hints

  • You start with access to Fireball, but you'll have to find the rest!  (We ran out of time before adding the 4th ability, though)
  • If your loops aren't registering correctly, try drawing them smaller.
  • When the end of your loop is close enough to the start, the line will get thicker to indicate the spell is ready to be cast.
  • A star will appear over crossings in your drawn loop.  In order to cast Fireball, there must be no stars on the line when the mouse is released.
