wasn't able to finish this during the 72 hour #LudumDare jam but I'm still hoping to release this prototype in the next few days!

it's a surreal "fake FPS" where you play as a (evil?) witch hunting for potion ingredients with a "magic wand" (aka literally a gun)

It's interesting to see how despite only 300 fewer entries in #ludumdare58 than in #ludumdare57, the homepage feed felt a lot more dead than what I'm used to from previous iterations of the jam.

@ludumdare.com 58 jam complete!

Suffered the age old problem of overscoping for 3 days of work, but I really like the core idea I came up with - maybe I'll take it further

Anyway, check it out!
