I don't like the way the RNG works, you can get completely stuck because you cannot hit something from your position. Especially with the teleport guy. It should pick only positions from which you can make the shot, otherwise it is unfair.
That being said, when you do get a decent run, there can actually be some strategy to which items you pick/which resources you prioritize. Quite a fun game.
The bomb with two gunpowder has to be the best item in the game, took me only two shots to clear the entire level.
Genius idea and realisation, love it
the real hard run: the twenty floor bombless bomb wizard
I was fighting witch when it suddenly broke
Love this game and am having a blast. I was just curious if there was any plans for a mobile release? Would love to be able to play it on the bus
Brilliant idea with implementing roguelike elements to a bubble matching game. Love it! :D
I had some odd problems running this on linux. The executable crashes on a black screen.
After redeeming the game on Steam it gives me the message that the game has crashed but if I wait a few seconds it runs anyway and plays just fine with no issues.
I'm running Linux Mint 22.
It's super fun now that I've got it working.
Hey there. I enjoyed trying the game, but I don't like how it imposes controls if it detects a controller, and also proceeds to disable the mouse controls.
This isn't a game that needs to have any built-in controller recognition at all.
Really good and fun!
Wishlisted the full game to play later
I have the full game on steam, and all i can say is I NEED MORE! (more items specifically) i hope this gets even more content or possibly mods
First try lel
Really cool concept overall!
another finished run😊
Loved the game! Just finished it at 100% (the teleportation mage was really hard). Super easy to understand gameplay, super fun, awesome music and nice visuals. I had an absolute blast with the Blood Mage, making your health = your money is a really cool concept and completely shifts the risk/reward dynamic. Thank you for making this great little game :D
will it be available for mac at some point?
Yes, Mac OS and Android ports coming soon :)
Hells yes!
I can't wait to play hours of this instead of doing work!
Great fun and visuals :)
Refreshing take on the roguelike genre!!!
So, I had a great time, but also, this game is legitmately weird.
Not like bad, but just in the sense of.......
It looks like a Puzzle Bobble-like.
But... the main mechanic of puzzle bobble is pressing left and right, and aiming your bobble cannon.
Here in orb tower... you target with the mouse, and the game figures out the aiming for you. the choice of what to aim at as yours, but there isn't so much of a dexterity game to line things up. Which is... neither good nor bad, but just means that like... even though the game LOOKS very similar puzzle bobble, the actual skill and gameplay is very different.
Oh yeah, ALSO:
The music here is an absolute bop, and I love it. Great job.
Good stuff to spend some time!
A good game, original gameplay, very cool ! congratulations !
This is the first time on this website I am considering buying a game haha… 🧐
Music bops. Simple gameplay loop, but very addicting. Easily worth more than the $2 spent. Bombs w/ multiple gunpowders feel pretty busted but shop RNG sorta prevents you from getting that setup consistently so not a big deal.
Half way through battling the first boss (6 spells remaining), and my wand thing has stopped moving, contains no spells, and no long shoots. Game appears to be perma-stuck.
Very lovely game! I'll play this on my work PC too when I'm not in the mood to work :D
Great creative take on the neogeo type games!
Show post...
gg
Loved it! Fun game loop and very cool graphics and music. <3
Es como el Puzzle Bobble, muy bonito
Nice game. Very well executed. Good gaming loop. I enjoyed the time I demoed it and probably gonna buy it. Good job. :)

so needle is a little overpowered...
Yeah I just nerfed it in the full version, haven't updated the demo though
free your mind
🔥💧🧙♂️🟩⚪
fun and chill. i love the bomber guy
Enjoyed this game! I just beat the medium difficulty. It was funny, I beat the final boss with two spells because he started with every orb being isolated (a normally terrible situation) but I had the needle which popped them all after my first spell. Then just had to finish off the 2 cluster I made. Fun game!
kind of dumb. i lost against each and every boss and I still won the game.
well its more about clearing as much of the board as possible not clearing the whole board,whole board clears are just bonus money
Nice idea, I love this.
Si muy entretenido hasta que me di cuenta que era una demo :( ahora mi progreso se fue al ca;o jaja buen juego
Bastante entretenido la verdad, el de las bombas esta op
I just want to say that when I was fighting the final boss, I had needle in my inventory, I got a combo of only 3 then needle went into affect. IT DESTROYED THE REST OF THE ORBS.
Yeah the needle is quite OP, I will nerf it soon. Enjoy the power while it lasts 😂
oh yeah I think it can easily remove most bosses lol
