Mix-It Merlin
Controls:
WASD - To Move
MOUSE - Aim with mouse cursor
LEFT CLICK - Shoot with left mouse button
You are Merlin, an apprentice alchemist! There are angry monsters lurking in the shadows. Collect potions and mix them to light your way through the darkness. Maybe you can mix something to make those angry monsters happy again!
Mix-It Merlin was animated traditionally on paper and then photographed frame by frame to bring it into the computer.

Played the game, then played it again, the main theme sounds good and the artwork is super nice, and as I can see all done by hand so even more fantastic!
I had a great time playing and surely wold like to see more games done like this one! GG
Really good! I missed a bit of the onboarding but great job nonetheless. Banger game!

Fun, and so much character! Music and art vibes really well, and great combination of mechanics. Made my brain ache just enough

Interesting concept. It's just tough to juggle the core mechanic in my brain. Levels 1 and 2 were a breeze. But level 3 had so many different things going on which each required a different combination that it made it hard to balance. I was constantly flicking through trying to remember not just the combo, but which side they were on so by the time I could find the combo the lights would go out.
Thanks for playing! Yes, it is difficult to get the hang of. I'd like to try controller support and see what it's like to use trigger buttons to pick potions, that might be easier than trying to hit Q and E.

I like the art - it's very funny :D The only thing would be better is if candles would have a radius and not ilumante the whole level. 10 finger bullets/ 10
Ooh, nice idea. I had considered physically based light, but never tried it out. I like your idea though, maybe I could just do a circle around each candle that illuminated. Thanks for playing, glad you found it funny!
