Note now that the jam is over: yeah this was made by https://fartfish.itch.io 


MAGE-KESHIFT is a game about a little mage who uses boss attacks as his makeshift attacks. You can only use the boss' attacks to attack them, so be sure to be quick on your feet and react as fast as possible!

Beat the gauntlet for a sneak peek of what we have planned post-jam!!


CONTROLS

WASD -- Movement

LCLICK/HOLD -- harness the power of the orb (orb cannot attack on its own -- you must use what you see around you to attack bosses)

>HOLD then RELEASE ON YELLOW FLASH -- EXTRA DAMAGE!!!!

KNOWN BUGS

- Sometimes King Midas gets real angry that you defeated him and crashes your game. Still looking into this, no idea why it's happening. 

- You can throw the key off the map and get stuck.

- Music will stutter a bit when the player dies  - current solution: don't die.

Very elegant game, although games like these have a dashing mechanic

(+1)

how do you deal damage to the second boss?

When Firey Gaze (just calling them that because i think they have no canon name apart from that !!) fires those fire balls (wow that's a lot of firey words!) go above or below it and catch them to throw it back at the boss

MAGE-KESHIFT Gameplay | Interesting Boss Fighting Game!

the game is very unique and fun but i just wished the bosses had more attack varieties

Included Mage-keShift @ 6:16 as part of a video on the Boss Rush Jam. Was annoyed by the Fire boss at first, but once you nailed the catching mechanic you could really bring the pain to them.
