I have very mixed feelings about this game, but ultimately, I don't think I can recommend this. It has an interesting premise, but terrible execution. It is incredibly short, and most of the actual challenge comes from platforming and metroidvania mechani

Its short but very fun core mechanic, and solid platforming throughout

Arcane Assembly feels more like a proof of concept than a complete, polished product. The code-block magic-scripting system is absolutely amazing and with clever programming can result in some insanely overpowered spells. I only wish the rest of the game

Arcane assembly is a game where the developer had a single interesting idea, decided to make a game about it, and then forgot to actually make the game about the idea.
If it weren't for the main gimmick, this would be the most generic metroidvania i've e

Really, really fun!
Visuals: I'd say they fall cleanly in the functional and pleasant zone. Everything is very nice to look at, and the particle effects on the spells are especially satisfying. Tho with certain spells, the screen gets so full of stuff th

I love this game, I know nothing about coding but the built in journal helped explain everything very well, i have wanted a game just like this for years and this game finally scratches that itch. I wish there was a little more in game lore to discover to

Really cool idea, but severely lacking in content and polish. It has all the workings of a fully functional game, but it does not go even a single step beyond that. The level design is especially bland. The difficulty comes almost entirely from blind jump

I liked this game, but I'm saddened because it could have been so much more.
The *concept* of this game is amazing, but as others have noted it is severely hampered by not leaning into its premise. For instance, it provides you with a rich palette of pro

Good game but incomplete. Less than 4 hour play time, and not enough items deigned to buy stores items (aspect enhancement).

I find the core idea of this game deeply interesting to me.
Honestly, the game isn't good lmao
But, it gives me so much hope and inspiration for programming magic, something I've always loved. No other game lets you program magic in an actual progra

Ultimately a miss. Although it sounds good on paper, the actual systems are very unrewarding. Every time I try to tinker up a spell, I find that either it doesn't work because of some arbitrary limitation, or it's just worse than "shoot projectile at mous

This feels like a game jam concept. I got it on sale, and that's what I would pay for a game with this little content. It takes inspiration from Hollow Knight, but it's levels and enemies don't feel unique or fleshed out. One enemy in the last zone is jus

On one hand, I wish there were a bit more options for things to make spells with, since I basically just used the same burst throw orb spell throughout the whole game (which I replaced with what is essentially just a better orb as I got the sharp and expl

If you lose to a boss you just encountered, it takes your coins until you can retrieve them and defeat the boss. So, you can't spend the coin to buy upgrades to help defeat said boss.

Controls are bad for controller users, and the main mechanic, spellcrafting, is way too complex.

This game is more of a sandbox with a thin veneer of metroidvania platformer. The main mechanic is crafting new spells, but there's no incentive to build anything other than a single spell that throws a bunch of projectiles.

it a cool concept but its ultimately ruined by the camera movement.
i cant remember the last time i played a game this frustrating because of the camera. games aren't suppose to piss you off in the first 20 minutes.
