Magic War:

In Brief:
A top-down magical action shooter. Clear each level of enemies.

Please see the introduction below the countdown timer.

Sorry Folks. Still not fully recovered. I did try today's game but died in seconds the first few times I attempted the game. However, after several tries, I realised the only way to survive was to move constantly. This did require some luck as there were several enemies in the small arena, all firing at you. But it is possible. Once all the enemies are dead you move on to a new level. I think there are things you can pick up in the levels, but I was so intent on avoiding incoming magical blasts that I never managed to run over one of them. There are only a few hours left before this giveaway ends, so I decided not to play further so that I could at least post the images I'd taken and post what few details I'd uncovered.

The game starts in a window. Thanks to Jason, who gave me the heads up on pressing the S key. while in game to toggle to full screen. While I was testing all of the keys to see if I could get it to play full screen, one of them changed the colour to purple. Didn't know which one though

You can see a video of game play HERE.

Controls:
Use the Space bar to re-enter the game. Movement is accomplished using the WASD or Arrow keys and the left mouse button to fire. Menu items can also be selected using the AW &S keys then enter or use the mouse wheel and LMB.

Notes on Security
I scanned a zipped copy of the installed game using Virus Total and it found zero hits from 63 antimalware engines. You can see the installed games scan HERE
