Syphoné and the magic of the elements
Syphoné and the magic of the elements
Syphoné was supposed to become an arcane mage but since she wasn't showing any affinity for arcane powers she got kicked out of the gallery of the high arts the most famous mage school. She awakes in the forest but with no memory of her magical gifts and past. In the forest, she finds a little fire that keeps going out. The fire elemental that tries to sustain itself there asks her to take it along and find a better place where it can grow its powers. Syphoné takes the fire along and learns to use her first elemental power. Will she find a place for the little fire and become the first elemental mage in her world?
About the project:
Syphoné and the magic of the elements is a prototype for a platformer that we made during the pixel art game jam 2022. It is made by a team of beginners that just wanted to have some fun. The prototype is made with unity and mainly using asprite.
Controls:
Keyboard/ Controller
WASD / directional pad - Movement
Space/ A - Jump
Q / B - Fireball
Shift/ X - Dash
We hope you enjoy it!

The Game is beautiful, however I dont understand how the respanwning works. The dust would have looked a bit nicer if it had different colour on different surfaces. Also Im to bad to finish this :(
it's the small blue stones :) they are checkpoints that determine where u spawn after death ^^
It's decent, but the enemies, the main character and the ground elements, are all in different styles, i'd recommend making the main character a lot smaller in pixel resolution, working on pixelart in general, also, the enemy hitboxes are broken, ALSO. one of your comments is obviously botted "Syphone the best GAME"
Yes, we had three different beginner artists working on the project. Since it is a game jam there was no time to adjust everyone's style :) Thanks for your feedback for the possible continuation we will definitively consider all of it.
And I can assure u we didn't use any bots for the comments. We shared the page on insta and discord with several communities also younger audiences. If they decide to do something like that it's out of our hands. We had a wee laugh about it and left it there since we don't want to delete comments to be authentic from our side. No matter how the feedback is applied we will take it good or bad :)
Okay.
This game is very fun, shame i cant pump it into my bloodstream, i think whoever made this must be really funny, whoever they are. Well made game 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
This game was SICK, the animation quality was super simplistic in a good way, the colour palette was really nice. The mechanics were realistic and enjoyed my play time. 5/5 well done!
pretty well made game on the design front. However, there are a few things you could have done to make this game even better! for example, when you die, you have to go to the main menu in order to play again. instead you could have made a restart button. another thing is that the controls weren't explained in the game. also I found out that one can just spam shift and dash to the end of the game in around 20 seconds without doing much lol. Really good game though!
Thank you Chickensio for your feedback:) Yeah we run a little out of time for the jam tbh. We have a game over animation ready for going back to the last savepoint and some more animations for Syphone and the fire as well as some signs for the controls that we will be adding later on. It seems like some of us will continue with the project for fun and add more levels and functions :3
