How it feels

A frantic, hand-painted arena shooter where you play as a wizard fighting for survival through magical combat and story-driven levels.

What players say

A short, free arena shooter with charming hand-drawn art. Players like the style and humor but warn the game is very brief, around 45 minutes to an hour. The randomized shop upgrades and permanent loss of everything on death frustrate some, and the difficulty relies heavily on enemy projectile spam with no in-game explanation of spell mechanics.
