Added new Custom Reactions feature that lets you make new reactions for Skully to things you say!
Various polish and bug fixes
Waltz of the Wizard is a delightful sandbox that captures the 'mischievous' side of magic. Unlike RPGs where magic is just a stat, here it feels like a physical force. The way you can stretch objects like taffy, create miniature black holes, or turn the entire room into a zero-gravity zone is consistently entertaining. It feels less like a game with a win-state and more like a high-end toy box for the magically inclined.
The mobile port is surprisingly robust. While it obviously loses the tactile feel of VR controllers, the gesture-based touch controls are intuitive and snappy. The sentient skull provides just enough witty commentary to keep the lab from feeling lonely. It’s a fantastic showcase of physics-based environmental interaction, and discovering a new 'hidden' spell by combining nonsensical ingredients always results in a laugh. It's short, but packed with wonder.
Interactive Magic Lab
Physics-Based Interactions
Dozens of Secret Spells
Immersive Sound Design
Try adding the 'Dragon Scale' and 'Moonlight' to the cauldron. This grants you the fire-breath ability, which can be used to light the torches in the secret cellar.
Step through the magical portal to enter a procedurally generated dungeon where you must use your spells to survive against guardians.
This is a mobile-optimized version of the popular VR experience, using touch and gyro controls for magic.
THIS GAME IS AMAZING!! It’s hilarious and so much fun that you just get to explore with minimal direction. I like that it forces me to think. What I would love to see improved is the navigation/ joystick feature. Tapping is fine but in some situations I can be more precise with the joystick. However the emote tab keeps opening because I hit it by accident. I wish the joystick was where the emote tab/circle is because it gets in the way and it’s frustrating when I just want to enjoy the game. I play on an iPhone so that could be the issue. But it is the primary device I play games on the most. So I’d love to see it formatted for it better. But the game is AMAZING! This is just my wish for improvement and NOT a negative review. Hence the five stars!
It’s a fun time on mobile, but would like it more if it had better touch controls, maybe a landscape orientation would help? Difficult to use the virtual joystick without interacting with objects or hitting the emote icon.
This is an amazing game. It’s exactly like VR game because it is even though the controls are a little hard and you have to use the reality mode for the tutorial to point out something and make things float. I would rate this five stars if they fix that by making a pointing emote by the way, if I have any spelling errors in this, it’s because I’m using talk to text
This game is awsome it’s funny, Adrenalin filled,creative game I recommend it to every body and if it were scale one to a billion I’d choose 2 billion
I’m loving the game so far! The only downside is that whenever I try and use a spell, I get softlocked and can’t move my camera nor my character, it’s a great game but it’s just not possible to use spells, please fix it
It has so many actions like good spells, talking skull and like finding enemies
I actually do what the bird is telling me to do and it doesn’t work. I need to fix that.
I'll revisit again later in hopes the game will be more navigable... Found Skelly a bit mean and condescending at some points, and it killed the fun for me as I struggled just to do basic stuff.
