An excellent game!
I have to say, this is a very unique and original game. I felt the visuals were well represented and clean. Balance is good, and the controls were very easy to pick up. I absolutely loved the choice in music. The retro-platformer tune quickly reminded me of my old Sega Gamegear =) All in all, a fantastic game. Although I would only make one suggestion. To improve the game ever further, that there be more types of magic to unlock, especially one that more effectively aids in blocking enemy fire. Their shots could also stand to be a bit more visible, as they were easy to miss. Maybe a black border around them? Enemy variety goes a long way too! Anyway, it was an excellent game and I feel like your hard work really paid off. Cudos! =)
