  • Wow. This game truly checks all the boxes. Super creative interpretation of the theme, very well polished and intuitive to play (designed well enough that a tutorial isn't needed). Really fitting and funny art and music and mechanically very clever and just a fun experience. I liked how the headaches could be used to the advantage of certain spells and that some spells negatives could be other spell's positives. I'd love to see this expanded further and some more depth added to the headache mechanic. I think this game could go far - I look forward to seeing how it goes. Good luck getting into the top 10!

Summarise your game!
You are an evil Hat that takes over wizards and pokes their brains to cast spells. But you must strategically avoid headaches to win your wizard duels!

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
The Hat tells its victims, "you are the weapon!" when it possesses them and wields them against other wizards.

Nice polish overall! I found the first enemy using ice shield a lot pretty annoying. But otherwise the game was smooth, good job!

THIS IS EXACTLY THE TYPE OF GAME I LIKE TO SEE FROM A GAME JAM-- A CLEAN, FUN LOOP USING SOME THEME/MECHANIC I WOULD NEVER EXPECT TO SEE MADE ANYWHERE ELSE. GREAT JOB AND GREAT HATS.
