Lore
Our gracious Lord, in His eternal wisdom, calls forth a tournament. All the mages are to compete for the glory of a fair duel with our immortal Lord, a chance to win his crown and throne...
Every thousand years since the ascension of our most generous Lord, a tournament is held. 'Tis a great opportunity to clear the tensions between the mageocracy and the Church of Eternal Rule...
Everyone who fails to attend the tournament will be executed...
The High Priest, Essays Honoring the Lord, 5563 After Ascension
I write these words into stone, as it cannot be burned.
It took us hundreds of years to learn what we once knew...
They call it eternal wisdom; I call it deceit. They call it a tournament; I call it a slaughter...
Tomorrow it begins, and the day after, the only magic left in this world will be his.
Unknown, Stone shards, 1563 After Ascension

Become a Supporter!controls are kinda horrible, nice game but controls removes the fun in playing
Why did you make this torture game? I love it
Hard to control your shot and feels to tedious to activate when near. Maybe add a different default key bind? It would also be useful to add a shield of some sort or lower the amount that the heal potion heals your opponent, the heal to average damage is crazy high. But I absolutely love the game nonetheless! Endless is a blast and I definitely will be checking this game out again shortly! I hope this isn't seen as bickering, I genuinely am excited to see more progress!!! X3
It would be cool to play as some of the other kinds of wizards, and change the secondary ability from Dash, to the shield, or skeletons, or something... Even though Dash is clearly the best.
