Overview

“Wizards Who Duel: With Magic” is Black Cherry Games’ first project. Our goal with this project is to create something fresh by adding a twist to a common game style – bullet hells. Wizards Who Duel takes the original idea of a bullet hell, but allows you to play against others and create a new, dynamic experience with each game. Like other fighting games that came before it, Wizards Who Duel adopts a traditional style of game progression including, but not limited to: several rounds per game, multiple maps to choose from, player health bars, and of course, the eventual, indisputable victor. However, if that was all there was to it, Wizards Who Duel would be just the same as its predecessors, which is definitely not the case. With a selection of eight unique fighters, each equipped with their own skillsets and abilities, Wizards Who Duel focuses on dodging unpredictable attacks and countering the abilities of different fighters, rather than simply memorizing combo strings predesignated at the start of each level. Enjoy the adrenaline of fierce competition with the addition of weaving through hordes of projectiles in the unique player-versus-player bullet hell, “Wizards Who Duel: With Magic”. Will you emerge unscathed?



Platforms

Wizards Who Duel: With Magic is currently planned to be available through Steam, playable on any Windows machine. The game will support keyboard and mouse, along with Windows compatible gamepads.

Wizards Who Duel: With Magic will be playable couch co-op style or online through peer to peer connections.


Meet the Characters

Learn to fight as and against eight unique fighters. Each fighter is themed around one of the four core elements: fire, water, earth, and air. With all eight fighters having different abilities, each game is full of endless possibilities.


Fire

Fire

Fire is a formidable opponent, turning to ash all who oppose her. Eliminate your enemies with her blistering flames.

Ability: Wildfire
Fire expels flaming projectiles in a conical shape that extends outwards and disperses as it continues away from its source.

Combustion

Combustion

Combustion is explosive in battle. Blow your opponents away with his dazzling display of flying shrapnel.

Ability: Firework
Combustion launches grenade-like objects that will then explode and send pieces flying in all directions outwards from the explosion.

Water

Water

No dam can stop Water’s currents from washing away the competition. Drown out your enemies with her winding streams.

Ability: Tributary
Water sends volleys of bullets outwards from all directions that turn and begin to spiral as they grow further from the center, follow-the-leader style to give the effect of streams.

Ice

Ice

Ice is a solid, glacial opponent that is as cold in battle as her name suggests. Slow your adversaries and gain the upper hand with her subzero shards.

Ability: Crystal Shard
Ice expels an initial wave of projectiles that go through a shattering effect that creates more shards as they expand outwards, weaving like cracks in ice.

Rock

Rock

Stable and concrete, Rock is a reliable fighter in the arena. Stick your opponents between him and a hard place with his solid wall.

Ability: Wall
Rock creates a solid wall of projectiles that expand outwards from him at a steady pace. They do not waver or move and stay aligned in a straight line, making it a reliable and effective attack.

Druid

Druid

With the forces of nature at their will, Druid is one to watch out for. Making use of their flowery friends, they mow down the competition.

Ability: Sentry Bloom
Druid sends out an initial bud towards the wall of the arena. The bud will stick to the wall and bloom, sending out waves of projectiles much like a turret.

Harpy

Harpy

Harpy is as much of a threat on land as she is in the air. Take to the skies and entrap your opponents with hoards of piercing feathers.

Harpy shoots feathers out in a conical fashion initially. These feathers pause in their flight and turn, darting back towards their source in sharp lines and effectively ensnaring opponents between them.

Storm

Storm

Storm utilizes wind and rain to form a perfect hurricane. Express your might with electrifying attacks, and keep the thunder rolling.

Ability: WIP
