edit: I think I fixed a bug in the game found by bubblybill.

edit2: Fixed a glitch found by Bubblejuice, made the first levels a little bit easyer, and made it take you to the menu when you die instead of starting the game over.

edit3: The escape button now exits the spell menu and when it is pressed in the game the user is asked if he/she wants to quit.
Thank You,

This is a pretty sweet game. Simple graphics, loads of spells, and addictive.

[jelleisgoed]

The graphix are very good, nicely done

The gameplay is good but it is a bit too difficult, in the first level i already died. But it was fun

8/10

[Excalibur333]

Thank you. If you hare having lots of problems beating the first level try the "How to play" it might help a little.

Wow. when did that happen?

[Excalibur333]

I think I fixed that. Thank you for telling me. If you find any new glitches (There shouldn't be anymore) please feel free to tell me

Wow. Umm...

Cool idea. But the enemies kill me about 2x as fast as I can kill them... on the first level. So I can't review any more. Heh.

Just a hint, often people underestimate the difficulty of a game, because they have much more experience with it.

However, I really liked the games style a lot. I request difficulty levels in the next version.

Good luck!

You should make it so that you dont have to keep restarting the game when you die, is annoying

[Zigzag]

Great simple game. Simple graphics, simple gameplay, simple sound - I love it. Pure enjoyment. But I would like to go back to the menu when I die instead of the game restarting.

9.5/10

[Excalibur333]

Thank you I will fix that. Also you can press space to skip the intro.
Excalibur. Tomkin I don't see how the game is so hard are you useing your fisrt spell (because it sucks it is only there if you don't have any mana). I can't do difficulty levels but if you have any ideas on how I could make the first level a little easyer I might try them out.
edit: Read the blue update in the first post I fixed a few things in the game.
Thank you for your feedback.

I tested it, and was pretty cool... came to lvl 3 or 4 with first spell only.. and than i figured i have more (read the how to play badly it seems) However when I finished lvl 4 (and i did it twice) lvl 5 doesnt unlock... other than that game was pretty fun .. I would only decrease hp of thouse things on walls on lvl 4 as killing them was anoying

[Excalibur333]

The levels unlock accoring to what level your character is. That isn't very clear in the game sorry.

[MegaNoob]

Awsome! The style is pretty good. You don't see too many magic platformers, makes this fairly original. The one feature I liked is the amount of spells you have. I use the mind spell, dark spell, and th advanced light spell alot. What level do you have to be to go to the 5th? I loved it, 9/10!

Man I love Magic games.... And this sounds Absoultly amazing! I'm downloading now... I'll spend days on this if theres enough levels...

I'll edit with review...

[SpiderKing]

"what level you have to be to go to the 5th?"" i wanted to ask the same question.. when I finished lvl 4 for first time I was lvl 11 or 12.. did it few times more (now im 14) but its still locked.. reduce xp need for a level as replaying same stage over and over agen not fun

[MegaNoob]

Acutally I just figured out.

You need to be level 15 in order to enter level 15.

Also, holy crap the last bos is hard...

[Excalibur333]

Thank you all for the good comments. If you really like it please rate it on yoyogames for me because not very many people have rated it. Thank you. I am also considering making a Deep Magic 2 or somthing like that. Thank you. The reason there aren't very many levels is because I made this game for a contest and I didn't have time to make more. If I make a second version there will be more levels.
