just to save you some time... do not use wind on lvl 15 when going for the last gem... there are hidden spikes high above the map

Another possible sequel: The Knight With The Holy Shield. He can't kill enemies with weapons, but he can reflect projectiles with his Holy Shield. He can get "Blessings" in order to reflect a different type of projectile (Fire Reflect, Ice Reflect, Thunder Reflect, etc.).

I want to elaborate capdeaur's sequel idea: The Warrior And His Weapons. He could use Sword to press some buttons that are beyond reach, Axe to destroy wood obstacles and Hammer to break through "fragile" stone obstacles. Also, some enemies could be immune to a certain weapon, and he could only have one of them at a time.
yep, that's the idea. But i want to go a bit further and make the mechanics and habilities "compatibles" between them, to be able to make levels with two or more characters at the same time. I have make this experiment in the bonus level of "The Ranger" I have uploaded recently.

thanks for the tip, but level 7 is too hard for me. trying to make a PIXEL-PERFECT jump is simply beyond me.
seriously..ONE pixel too far and you fall in the fire and die, ONE pixel the other way and you die to spikes!

Solution to level 13: Get the bee's gem and the key. Melt the first ice block. Rush through the locked door when the lava golem is moving right, then turn to stone the moment you can. Then un-stone when he's moving right again. This gives you enough time to jump back down and melt the ice block so he ends up going over the spike pit. Then you can go down to deal with the blob (flip the switch, use stone to block the blob, then jump up and wait for the blob to pass).

i can't even get past level 5. i looked up a walk-through and it shows a slightly DIFFERENT level design, with one less block in the lower left. the level i am stuck with is ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE to get through!

---------------------------SPOILER----------------------------------
level 15 solution:
go bottom left first.
use ice to get up, down to the right. down open upper left door. ever.
go back the way, use ice to get to the middle section.
go upper right, take wind.
then lower right. use fire on the right most spot when the monster is there.
use wind to get up right way and use stone to go down the left one (thorught the ghost).
go up to the top right again, using ice and after that fire.
use earth one final time to get through the middle flames.
the end :-)
I modified a bit the level to put some spikes there... the "upper-left" solution was too much pixel-perfect, it was causing frustration, more than fun.

was a good game, had me thinking quite a few times. last level took quite a few tries before yi got the right order :-)

Not bad, though I feel like fire is the least useful power since you can't get rid of it afterwards. I mean, uncontrollable fire is at least thematically appropriate and does add to the need to be careful in its use, but the final level doesn't require it to win, which threw me off at first.

Don't adjust any of the levels (except maybe clarify 15), just give us an option to play on a slower speed. You shouldn't have to die multiple times to get the execution right if you already know a solution.

Hi! There are walkthroughs out there with outdated solutions, this is the most updated:

(some levels have little differences, but the solutions are right)

There is another solution to Lv 15 by going through the bottom left door first: Get key, open bottom left door, get past the blob using the platform, get Ice spell, build a 5-6 block ice tower, go up, drop down and grab everything but DON'T OPEN THAT DOOR (say that in Barry's voice). Instead go back where you came from and to the starting point using Ice blocks. Open upper right door and grab Wind spell, then open lower right door, burn blob when it's in the far right corner, fly up with Wind, drop down through the ghost with Earth, then wind your way up to the top and drop through the flames with Earth. END. Maybe that was the "intended" solution but the beauty with games like this is to also find alternate solutions that allow you to shave off just a couple more seconds in Time Trial. Good luck!

LEVEL 13
1. Kill the bee, grab the gem.
2. Grab the key while both ghosts are around the center.
3. Unlock the door and grab the spell.
4. Fastly go to the edge of the platform you're standing on and use the earth spell.
5. After the yellow monster turns back because of you, jump down. Turn on the earth spell again while falling to get through the spikes.
6. Activate the switch then fastly go to the right platform and use earth.
7. After the fire monster turns back, follow him and go up before it kills you.
8. After it goes left, go back down and grab the gem.

Correction, my issue was that I can't cast fire where I want it unless I put ice down and stand on that first. F Bees.

I hate how every single pixel game has to come with frame perfect jumps, plural. Once you know what to do you have to do the stage over and over and over and over and over and over. Why? Why do this?

i tried doing lvl 5 but cant and when i looked up a walkthrough there was supposed to be 2 blocks gap so can use an ice platform but in my game there is only one so i cant complete it

if flying up to get the key on level 15 isnt the "correct" solution i would like to know what is. because i see no other way to do that level.

Level 15 was more frustrating than fun, but it's the last level so I guess it makes sense that it's the hardest. After looking at the comments I apparently did it the wrong way like many others. Still that's my only complaint. Great game otherwise. I still gave it 5/5 and also favorited it. It's pretty rare nowadays to see good new platform games here. So it's always a nice surprise when I find something like this.

You don't feel like much of a powerful or wise elemental wizard when a single little flame can stop you permanently and make you feel stupid for putting it there.

Nice game. I think you could take this concept much further by upgrading the spells. Ice is great already, but you could always add a horizontal casting option to make some new puzzles. Wind is fun, but maybe it could be made more controllable so that it doesn't have to go all the way to the top and/or so that it lets you move horizontally. Earth is a bit boring, maybe it could be used to break certain blocks or kill enemies. But fire is the real culprit. It's just totally uninteresting and frustrating, maybe you could put it out with ice, or burn away certain barriers, or launch it instead of having it just plop out in front of you and block your path, often in a way that ends your attempt to complete the level.

Far less enjoyables than other games form the same dev. Split-second pixel wide positioning ot avoid spikes it becomes boring pretty fast.

Haaretram, I just wait when the golem go right, pick up scroll of earth skin, use skill, so it bounces back again, drop left, melt ice, drop in pit and rest is easy.

I like the puzzles, but the controls are so precise that you end up feeling like you're fighting the controls rather than trying to solve the puzzles.

Solution to level 13: First, use fire magic to get the crystal by the bee. Before unlocking the door, melt 1 level of the ice. Hop over the fire monster and grab the earth scroll, then quickly jump down using earth before you land. If timed right, the monster will melt the rest of the ice only to immediately bounce off your statue, heading back towards the ghosts. This gives you time to jump down the hole in statue form (I actually fell through on my initial jump down from where the scroll was, but the monster still bounced off me once on my way down, which is why pre-melting one layer is useful), hit the lever, and make it across the mini-pit before the fire monster makes it down. From there, it is a simple matter to use the earth magic to slowly push your way to the right and climb, then grab the crystal after the slime has left.

Way too finicky. For instance, on level 11, I've managed to: just miss the platform with the bee, go just slightly too far and run into the bee, and--and I loved this one--stand far enough from the bee not to die, but apparently so close that when I used the fire spell, it lit a fire on the space *past* the bee--you know, the one with the crystal. I don't mind careful timing, but this seems to require a lot of pixel-perfect movement.

How to beat Lv 15: Get key, open upper left lock, get key, Earth magic and gem, open upper right lock, get Wind magic, get key in upper left corner and get Ice magic. In order to get to the top again, build an Ice tower six blocks high at the leftmost wall, then carefully make your way up. Open lower right lock, burn blob when it's in the far right corner, fly up, drop down through the ghost with Earth, then go to the top (careful with Wind) and drop through the flames with Earth to pick up the last gem.
A bit different from the intended solution, but its good too... except maybe for the needing of pixel-perfect placement for reaching the upper left key with the wind spell, that can be frustrating with that ghost wandering near by...

I think my solution for level 13 was...not what was intended at all. I got the fire golem stuck in the spike shaft. I know I was supposed to melt the ice so he patrols off to the left, but there didn't seem to be any way to get back up top without it, and there wasn't enough time to grab the earth magic and beat him to the ice, so...
Oh! he got stuck? hmm I will check it. About melting the ice... once you get the earth spell, you can use it to gain some time before jump down, if you need it ;)

I can turn into stone midair, but falling on enemies and ice blocks as a giant chunk of stone doesn't seem to do anything to them?
