A wacky broughlike made for the Seven Day Roguelike Challenge of 2019.
Controls
Movement: WASDCast: ArrowsSpin: QEConfirm: EnterMouse can be used on Augment menuSynopsis: Take Emmysaurus through 6 levels of THE PEN and use your SPELL WHEEL to battle everything from Jellies to Milk Bottles. Run for the exit or try to get a high score.
Your Spell Wheel has 4 spokes. Cast in one of the cardinal directions to activate one spoke. Each power on the spoke corresponds to a tile on the map itself and they are activated in order until hitting walls. Each power enhances the current spell and spells can branch into different paths, evolving independently.
Vending Machines: You can attack vending machines to get candy. Candy heals you or gives score if you are already full health. When the vending machine produces a piece of candy, you'll have to try twice as hard to get the next one but technically there is no limit.
Tips below, but they are spoilery!
