My thoughts on this game for anyone who might be interested in trying this out:
Quasar is an amnesiac wizard with a cute dog who is vaguely aware of a prophecy to activate three mysterious towers associated with primary colors. Unfortunately, she is also a very broke wizard who can't afford to buy a fashionable enchanted robe or doomsday wand. In her true quest to get enough coin to buy some proper magical drip she will have to violently pummel various strangers for their crimes of loitering, inconveniently standing in the middle of a path, holding opinions unfavorable to the local clown monarch and various other existence-related misdeeds. 

Leveling up isn't a thing in the game and neither is buying potions, but the battles are generally tuned to be so easy that this is never a concern. There are a few moments where you have to use Quasar and her companion's skills to defeat a specific boss, but even if you somehow manage to lose a fight you immediately can try again at full HP/MP. The lighthearted NPC interactions/dialogue are the real focus of the game so it makes sense that the battles aren't taken too seriously.

I thought the whole experience was cute and  goofy in a good way, and despite how simple the gameplay is it doesn't overstay its welcome (except for a speech given by a certain robot). It takes about 2 hours to beat everything so it's something you can easily do in one sitting.

Thanks for taking your time and leaving your thoughts on my game! Certainly it's rough around the edges in parts, but I'm glad you were able to enjoy it. It's a simple game, but I put a lot of love into it to make it a hopefully fun little experience! (And sorry for the robot monologue, that was a reference for a certain infamous game developer. I just had to do it lol)
