Elemental Mages
A downloadable game
Black and white, good and evil, fire and ice - these opposing forces often find themselves in conflict. But today, the Fire Mage and Ice Mage must work together to travel a land of trees, rivers, and mysterious portals.
Each map is 10x10 = 100 tiles, to fit the Weekly Game Jam 100 theme.

See controls in-game by pressing F1 on the keyboard or Start on your gamepad.
Note: The game lies about camera controls. It's on the shoulder triggers (LT/RT). Also, you can't use the stick to move. There were issues with the new input system.
Bugs? Let us know! Thank you for playing. :)
Linux and Mac builds are untested.
If you beat the game really fast, you might get cake.
Protip: The cake is a lie.
Known Issues
- Sometimes the mages float, other times they sink into the ground. They're magical creatures. They do these things.
- The mages stop animating when you restart a level. I guess they're tired of your metagaming shenanigans.

Cool game, liked the pseudo 3d perspective. Liked how the fire spreads.
It's pretty easy to slightly veer off course when you're building ice bridges and waste mana, which causes a restart. The only way I could think to fix that though is either press the cast spell button to place ice, or change the movement system.
The xbox controls were pretty strange -- I would have expected the analog sticks to be used for both movement and camera.
Also felt like the wizards were just a hair too slow for my liking
Hey thanks for playing! Agreed on the stick controls - that was the original intention but the new input system wasn't reading them as expected so I just changed it.
Also spot-on with the accidental ice bridges. Having the Ice Mage cast to freeze them would be a great solution.
