I love how this game looks, not too fast-paced and the palette is just right. Any chance of a Mac version?

Thank you! Currently I'm focusing all my efforts on the PC release.
A Mac port is theoretically possible, but I will need to borrow a Mac from a friend to figure out how to create a build. It will happen either near final release or just after that.

This game looks good! The character reminds me "Loom", an old game by Lucasart that maybe inspired you...?
Wich stage is the development?

Thanks for the purchase Manytoo!
I'm sure I saw Loom as a kid in a computer magazine, but never actually played it.
Currently there are 2 Playable Levels with Boss Fights! The 3rd Level (Jungle) is about to be released alongside various improvements and fixes. Check back soon!

Thanks for the reply.
I really like your game, the character and world design are great. The gameplay is very good; magical tricks, mana to refill, walking skeletons to kill and some puzzle games... all that staff can make your game an epic adventure, and the difficulty is good. I think the game diserve a small story (few cutscenes as introducing maybe) and for the bad point, the ladders are a bit tricky (or maybe that's a choice?).
Nice work, all the best for the rest.

Thanks for your Feedback! Next public update will have Fixed Ladders! They are working almost perfectly on my build here. I started working on a intro cutscene but it still needs some work. More story elements are going to be added in a later update. Thank you for your patience!

Graphic style remembers me of the old C=64 games, I loved so as a kid.
Has a nice "childhood memories" - touch. :)
