Update v0.5.0: New Tutorial & Scores

Hello and a happy new year, friends! After a long time of testing and improving on our Preview Branch, we are finally able to bring you the new, interactive tutorial and a completely rewritten scoring system! Unfortunately this means we had to reset your saves. But don't worry! We saved a backup of the saves in your saves folder (e.g. C:\Users\[YOUR WINDOWS USER NAME]\AppData\LocalLow\Hypnotic Owl\The Wizard_ WizHarder Edition\Saves) and you can continue with the old save, if you switch over to the v0.4.x branch we added just for this case. To do that go to the game in your Steam client, right-click on the game, select "Properties..." then navigate to "BETAS" and select the v0.4.X branch in the dropdown menu. Then rename your last "Slot1Story.backup" to "Slot1Story.save" and you should be able to continue right where you left off! Anyway, go check out the new tutorial and score! Here is the full change log for v0.5.0:

Added new tutorial!
Added new level scores!
Added brightness setting
Added contrast setting
Added bloom setting
Added lens distortion setting
Added postprocessing effects to main menu
Added settings to skip tutorial, cinematics, story
Added enemy sleep marker and setting
Improved setting menus
Fixed player keeps walking after getting hit

Thanks for reading and as always, if you want to be more involved with the development, or just to hang out, come have a chat with us on our Discord server! <3 Your Hypnotic Owl Team

The Wizard is back, and it's better than ever! Enjoy this new and improved edition of the beloved turn-based dungeon puzzler, with its unique spell casting system, expanded levels and story, and the features people have long been asking for!

Step into the robe Kevin, the exceptionally handsome but woefully inattentive wizardry student, whose gorgeous face has just been stolen. Follow the thief through the dangerous dungeons beneath the academy, encounter mythical monsters, and learn powerful magic along the way! You'll find many an opportunity to hone and upgrade your abilities to your individual play style, but be wary! Without a well-considered plan of action, this goofy little apprentice won't make it very far...

With a heavy emphasis on strategy, The Wizard challenges its players to plan their moves carefully, upgrade their spells strategically, and use the environment to their advantage to make it through its mazes unscathed. Can you master the arcane arts and get back your valued visage?

Brain-teasing, turn-based dungeon crawl
