SPELLBINDER game was made in 72 hours for Ludum Dare 55 Game Jam (theme "Summoning"). There were 4 participants in our team, and I was the one responsible for the game art. The early 2demo version of the game is out now and you can play it here https://nadiapixel.itch.io/spellbinder

Since it's a game about spells and summoning monsters I decided to use a closed spellbook as the start menu.

The game starts with you playing for a witch. The setting is a mystique island where the witch lives. She can explore altars on the island to gather water, fire, wood, stone, and air elements, before the timer goes off.

The altars

As the timer for collecting elements goes off there once again appears a spellbook, this time it's open. Here you choose your warriors and upgrade their defence and attack abilities with the elements you've collected. 

When ready you send your warriors to the battle, where they fight with enemies to defend the witch's island. 

Thank you for watching!
