A little puzzle game
This is my second game, competing in a game jam.
It's a little puzzle game, with a few levels.
(Due to less time, i only was able to do 6 levels)
Controls:
W,A,S,D to move
R to restart the level
other controls are explained ingame
Story explanation:
In this game you must find the Immortality potion from chinese alchemists (Historical Explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alchemy#East_Asia).
You also must use the "Magic" from the alchemy tables to solve the puzzles.
(Sorry for my bad english, i dont speak english natively)
An average puzzle dragged down by many aspects. I've seen all of these mechanics before multiple times, I can't call it original. The theme is tacked on too, you are gathering magical spells, nothing to do with alchemy or ancient medicine as far as I can see.
The graphics are ok, audio rudimentary. The text explaining the new skills should be some other color than black. It blends in with the background at times. The door triggers automatically turning on and off doesn't really add anything.
Good effort, few bugs; but too simple and uninsipired.

Neat game. I included it in my Alakajam #1 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/YUCYcrngipc
Its a pretty ok game.
When you press ctrl, all the doors get locked up, is that intentionall?
Sometimes the tiles of the background have red line inbetween.
Also the controls with placing blocks and shooting are a very awkward, because you have press the button you wanna face at last to really face that way.
But its good for a beginner game.I like the little grizzle effect.
