4TONS
A downloadable game
In 4 Towers of Nerdstorm, wizards find themselves imprisoned in a malevolent alternate dimension by the cunning Lord Nerdstorm. This 2D puzzle-shooter roguelike invites you to master the arcane arts of four distinct schools of magic: Dark, Light, Fire, and Frost. Each spell is intricately bound to polyomino puzzle pieces that must be socketed into your weapons, allowing you to create a unique and devastating loadout.
As you journey through the ever-shifting, procedurally generated levels, you’ll need to think quickly and adapt your strategy to overcome the relentless forces of Nerdstorm. Mix and match your spells to unleash devastating combos, discover hidden synergies, and outwit your foes with clever tactics. With each run, new challenges and treasures await, ensuring that no two playthroughs are ever the same. Prepare to outsmart and outcast the evil Lord Nerdstorm, or be forever trapped in his chaotic realm.

Nice update! I didn't realize what project this was even though I'm subscribed, I'd recommend making the thumbnail a close up screenshot or something that shows the main game mechanic rather than the "4tons" text banner which doesn't tell me anything. "Wandcrafting Roguelite" I'd think would generate some interest but the thumbnail doesn't convey that concept.
It's 'F' to go through the portal now, but it's one of the few actions that doesn't have a text helper yet, the text on the other actions was a great addition
Love the improvements keep it up!
Woahh this was way bigger of a project than i expected. Super sick. Had trouble figuring out 'G' to go through the portal, and 'tab' to turn off the wand ui after you open it with 'G'. Love the mashing of ideas and the wand inventory shapes. The art and vibe is super fun. love it keep it up
Thanks a TON, Ben! I appreciate the input. I'm working on adding some UI prompts that pull from the player settings, which should hopefully smooth out those sticking points. Coming soon to Steam, keep an eye out! -Ryan
