Development

All the code, art, animations and writing were done by me. The audio was from resources available online. Everything was done as part of the jam and I am exhausted. I copied and pasted this sentence from my LD53 entry and it's still 100% spot on. Though I think I'm more exhausted this time.

Had grand ambitions this jam and part of my wishes I'd focused on some things more specifically rather than being so broad. Could have had more interesting story stuff if I'd spent less time making levels and enemies. Could have had better platforming if I'd have spent less time on story and spells and dialogue. Always the case, I suppose. I had fun and I'm pretty happy with the end result either way, hopefully you will be too.
