I leveled up to where the nova could keep me safe with a scroll active, then to where it was constantly on, then I had the wizard take a nap in his bed (in the library, top-right corner, about 5 minutes), cleared out the goblins that had built up "overnight", used the enhanced speed to phase through the world border and ascended to godhood at level 69. Quite fun for a 72 hour game, but could use an actual victory screen out-of-bounds and certainly would benefit from a bit of enemy variety, though the map complexity is on-point and the 'advanced' enemy AI by survivors standards (the goblins walk *around* walls? and even move on paths when we're not around? D:) makes up for it somewhat.
Lol that sounds amazing, I'd love to have seen it. Yeah I agree, some sort of end-game scenario would have been nice!
Thanks very much for playing the game, I really appreciate it. I'm actually working on further updates to the game post game-jam, so I hope that's up your alley!
what do you do??
can you have a video of you playing the game I don't understand the because the ratio of enemies vs the cooldown being 5+ seconds doesn't feel playable
Buy enhanced cooldown. Grab spell scrolls and remember they respawn. Use feathers to walk through walls diagonally. Goblins only attack after they 'see' you by coming near to you, otherwise they follow predetermined movement patterns. This means the bottom left room is extremely crowded and vulnerable to the magic aura thingy. Fireball size increase is good, but should wait until after shadow orbs (which you can follow for safety, they are slow-moving) and several enhanced castings.
Thanks for playing, yeah I'll have a video up shortly of some gameplay if that helps you. You basically will automatically fire every 10 seconds. You can buy upgrades to reduce this cooldown. All you do is aim and move :)
