You match hexes to cast spells on the enemies. Ive only snuck in a round at work but I think I will be spending some time on this one.

Thanks for the heads up; I'll check it out right away. Vovin ð® Spam Police ð Nov 28, 2009 6,514 3 38 Germany #9 Vovin, Aug 20, 2015 What a nice puzzle game, really hexciting! I totally love that everything features a hex style. LordGek Well-Known Member Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Feb 19, 2009 12,282 141 63 Software QA Engineer Saratoga, CA, USA #10 LordGek, Aug 20, 2015 Otherwise great fun and I really like how each class has such unique play styles. Vovin ð® Spam Police ð Nov 28, 2009 6,514 3 38 Germany #11 Vovin, Aug 20, 2015 Yeah, I agree, each class plays different, I also like the fluid gameplay. It has my recommendation. I hope it doesn't get drowned, because today, unexpectedly, there are some pretty heavyweights around. Unstablefan Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Feb 22, 2013 858 12 18 #12 Unstablefan, Aug 20, 2015 Feels more like an endless runner than a puzzle game. But progress feels a little slow. I love the puns though. Anomalous Member Patreon Indie Apr 13, 2014 6 0 1 Indie game developer Tacoma, WA #13 Anomalous, Aug 21, 2015 I really appreciate the feedback! gmattergames Well-Known Member Mar 1, 2013 607 42 28 #14 gmattergames, Aug 21, 2015 The best aspects: visually, the craft-paper esthetics and the whole play on the hex theme is a nice. The gameplay is nothing new, but both interesting and challanging. This is a decent match game and worth a go if your into them. There is definitely room for improvement, and with the dev engaged on this thread I'm hoping he takes note of a few of them: 1. As a realtime match game, the pace is intended to be frantic as the enemies close in. Unfortunately, frantic becomes frustrating as the game limits when moves can be entered by the user. The hexes lock, while previous moves execute, breaking the pace of the game. If input, execution and enemy advancement were all managed independently, the game would be far more enjoyable. 2. Please add a pause button or some way to back out to a menu. 3. Find some new music, it's really rough. atomicshed New Member Jul 26, 2014 4 0 0 #15 atomicshed, Aug 26, 2015 Well I'm hooked, I quite like the pace of the game. I really like the different game styles with the different classes (although I haven't tried the pyromancer yet, can't seem to be able to unlock it) I would suggest a tutorial recap - perhaps a few screenshots expanding basic tactics for each 'mancer' Pause button - jumping out of the game isn't that elegent, although where you implement that... Settings - adjust audio, save to iCloud etc atomicshed New Member Jul 26, 2014 4 0 0 #16 atomicshed, Aug 26, 2015 Also can confirm a bug with high scores not being saved.

Good fun but I don't think it's saving top local scores properly (at least the score tracking on GC seems okay).
