Holy Blast will now overload blocks with shine, and sparkle blocks will break if blasted too many times! An unintended consequence for the Holiness spell.

Radiance will now work how you probably thought it would: It can heal things. Keep in mind though, your wand does not function correctly, leading you to possibly heal other things rather than you. Perhaps the castle is low and you need to heal? Nope, you might heal yourself instead. And vice versa. :smile:

Alright, so this game wasn’t as fleshed out as I wanted it to be for the flowjam, so it might receive more updates for the future.
Feel free to suggest ideas and provide feedback! :point_down:

Big Balance update!

  • All spells now take half the time to cast
