Sweet! ASCII Art!
I like the music in the video. Is the in the game as well?
Yes, that is the in-game music!
I think the concept is very original but for the life of me I could not grasp the gameplay. I must have tried the trial a dozen times and I never felt like I was learning anything or getting better at it. The AI is just rediculously difficult even on the easiest setting or I just plain suck at the game. In either case, the game absolutely needs a tutorial because it just throws you in and expects you to figure it out. I am sure this game will have a niche following but I think most will be turned away by the steep learning curve. I know this is harsh but I have given this game more chances than most of the other Indy Games I’ve tried and I keep coming back to the concept being too complex.
Thanks for the feedback Quanrian. I’m glad that you enjoyed the original concept, and am sorry to hear that it was so difficult. This was absolutely something that went through a few revisions while the game was being playtested. I’ll be following up via email shortly to pick your brain about the tutorial you have suggested. Thanks again for checking out Spell Find, and for thating the time to share your thoughts.
