So, I've decided to release the game according to plan. I'm still having health issues though, so I can't really start working on an update just yet.
Downloaded and played it, it’s really really cool playing a mage!! The fireball casting sounds and feels like there’s a lot of oomph to it, and the slomo casting is super fun to aim (helps when I’m being mobbed too!). I’ve seen a some graphical errors in the UI, but nothing gamebreaking so far. Level 11 now and everything’s just smooth as silk. The music could use a bit of work; actually not sure if music would work here, maybe something more atmospheric..? The spell-effects for EVERYTHING is just fantastic man. I’m being shot at with lightning spells and I actually fear getting hit with that shit. I know it wont hurt a lot but they look absolutely freaky and no nonsense. Also: traps. There are traps! You can get hit by them and get damaged but you can herd mobs into them too! It’s so beautiful . I’ve gone through a couple of bosses now, and solo ones are hardly a problem (dodge roll, attack, good stuff!), it’s the bosses with accompanying mobs that sport a good challenge. More of those! I also got surprised with the leviathan boss: it changed into forking giant scorpion man. Two phases. Good stuff!! There’s a lot to like in this game man. If there’s in-app purchases to unlock cool cosmetics, (even a shiny new avatar or a pet or whatever) I’d buy into it to support. PS: Found some shoulder armor that allows me to make a fire path; combo’d with the fire mastery and I’m just a beast. I love it. I want to play with the other masteries but I’m having too much fun cooking shit.
Opened a new thread in the released games section so discussion can continue over there: https://toucharcade.com/community/threads/powerlust-by-bartlomiej-mamzer.418598/
