Astral Mage

You find yourself on an astral battlefield facing a horde of endless foes. Use your magic to last as long as possible and collect shards to upgrade your abilities. Death is not the end!

Astral Mage is an action arcade battler with roguelike elements created for the Gamedev.tv game jam! Survive an endless horde of astral creatures, collect shards, make your last stand, and upgrade your abilities before diving back in!

The game was developed using Construct 3 by BlueLumin. All art and animation assets were created in Aseprite by 2bitdream.

Music credited to Eric the Funny Baron.

Sound effects by: Shapeforms, Kenney, and Leohpaz.

How to Play

Use the W A S D or arrow keys to move. Left click to shoot a magic bolt, right click to shoot an explosive projectile (when the upgrade has been purchased).

If your health gets low enough, your damage, move speed, and fire-rate doubles for 10 seconds, make your last stand count!

Navigate the rest chamber to buy upgrades from the eye and jump back into battle by interacting with your(?) body.

Game crashed :(  I had been playing for a bit (just the first run; I hadn't died), and I got an upgrade crystal eventually after ages and then later my character's movement suddenly became unresponsive and I could only change my firing direction as I walked up and to the right, then I couldn't change or stop firing and also enemies stopped moving, then the music stopped but sound effects continued, then all graphics froze.
