Our little game jam game Sorcell's Spectacular Spell got a big content update! ๐Ÿ‚

We originally developed this in three days for the Cozy Fall Jam 2023, and this update had been in the works for over a year ๐Ÿ˜…

I finally took the time and added the finishing touches over the easter weekend!

It's a short and simple mini-statraiser/resource-management game about helping a wizard train for a magic competition. We worked on it as a team of eight and it has adorable art and a completely original soundtrack!

The update added more CGs, more events, a reworked minigame and a revised script + lots of bug fixes and quality of life stuff.^^

Playing it from beginning to end should take no longer than half an hour~

Ahhh thank you for taking your time to write a proper review for it!! ;v; The team is very grateful for you feedback!

We definitely learned a bit about UI design in this one^^ The minigame has that weird issue where the timer seems to run a lot slower in the web version. If you download it, you'll notice that it's actually a little more challenging to beat. I'll have to investigate that ๐Ÿค”

Also, I've also mentioned it in another comment in a crosspost, but rightclicking should solve the History screen issue (same for the Save screen) It's a shortcut for showing and hiding game menus!

Also, yes that surprise moment in the good ending is very much intended to have that effect, hehe ๐Ÿคญ

I checked some of your itch reviews and found it very funny that someone complained about the adding phrases midway when I praised it. Different strokes for different folks!

Oh I almost forgot! Now that you've mentioned the twist at the ending, I can show you how that actually came to be, there's even a video
