Armed with up to 5 elemental spells at a time, you'll take on hordes of enemies and choose from a variety of upgrades and spells to create unique builds.

    In Mighty Mage, every wave presents a new challenge that you must overcome by choosing an upgrade or skill before taking on the enemies. From slow but tough Slimes to fast but weak Bats, you'll face a variety of foes on your journey to become the ultimate mage.

    The game features a pixelated and clean design, with cute characters, vibrate colors and a lot of velocity and fun. With two mechanics of dashing and shooting, you'll need to make strategic decisions on when to use each to defeat your enemies. When shooting, you'll walk slowly and cannot dash to avoid enemies, but when dashing, you'll become invulnerable for a short period and receive an impulse in the input direction.

    As you progress through the game, you'll choose from a variety of upgrades to buff your stats or restore your health, as well as learn new magic to become a better mage. Every upgrade and move has its own description, so you can customize your playstyle and make Mighty Mage truly your own.

    Don't miss out on the chance to become the Mighty Mage and take on the tower challenges to become the ultimate master magician!

    A very poor attempt at the vampire survivors genre. I find the VS genre to be very interesting with plenty of room for improvement, but MightyA very poor attempt at the vampire survivors genre. I find the VS genre to be very interesting with plenty of room for improvement, but Mighty Mage does not attempt to do anything interesting with the mechanics. Each run you pick from one of 4 magic elements which dictates what skills you can get during your run. This is largely arbitrary as the different elements have little to no impact on your gameplay style.
    The upgrade system is just as lazy. HP, Speed, Cooldown, Damage, Crit Chance, Crit Damage, these are the only upgrades to choose from. Unless you recklessly dump upgrades into crit damage and noting else, you should never fail to win. I've beaten the game with all four elements hoping to unlock a new difficulty, new upgrades, just anything, but this game shows everything it has to offer in your very first run. No one needs to play this game.
    If you're looking for a quality vampire survivors experience on the switch, just play void scrappers.
