Thanks again to @Lavapotion for sending me the demo to Wielders of the Essence, it got me hooked immediately and the full game was even better than I could have hoped!

Wielders of the Essence by @Lavapotion is a certified bop. Loving the pixel style, rapid upgrades, and chaos. Might play some more tomorrow. Check it out: twitch.tv/videos/2925039692

How they grow!
Wielders of the Essence have had their first post-release devlog. Bug hunting is a beautiful thing.
Link in thread!

Replying to @Lavapotion
A pure pleasure to play, especially on the Steam Deck. We now have the easiest two winners in bullet heaven genre: Wielders of the Essence and DRG: Survivor. Two spinoffs, two games made with passion, two successes, both support Ukrainian localization from the start:)

Pilot review from GamingScope's newest critic - and what a fantastic time she had playing/writing this.
@Lavapotion - What a game you've got, can I have a key too? :D

Zamiast heksów, tysiące szczurów na ekranie. Wielders of the Essence przenosi znane jednostki i zaklęcia z Songs of Conquest do innego formatu. Zobaczcie, jak udany okazał się ten niespodziewany eksperyment.

REVIEW: Wielders of the Essence
"Wielders of the Essence goes off like a frog in the sock... in a genre of game that’s being oversaturated, this survivors-like makes a solid splash."

So many cool games coming out, aaah!
If you love your survivor games with a side of sweet warrior frogs, go check out Wielders of the Essence from our friends at Lavapotion!

Wielders of the Essence is one of the best bullet heaven games I have played in a while.
Each run is way shorter than games in that genre. So a good break between modding sessions.
Great work @Coffee_Stain

Another banger from one of my favorite small studios! Go get Wielders of the Essence (especially SoC-fans!), very nice "dad-game" if you need small intense sessions.
Bought it on @Steam and will buy it again on @GOGcom to preserve for future generations <<< @Lavapotion plz
Would love to play these on the deck 👀

The best kind of scope creep in the history of games? You decide. Prepare to lost track of... wait, why is it dark outside?

This indie dev made a horde survival game where you build a town between runs.
- Cast spells and command troops
- Each building unlocks a troop, spell or skill
- Spinoff of Songs of Conquest
This is Wielders of the Essence and it's out now. What's your favourite bullet heaven?
Niklas Borglund retweeted
Well, we did it! Wielders of the Essence is out now on Steam!
What started as a small side project has turned into an entire game full of frogs, spells, a whole horde of enemies, and a suspicious talking egg.
Go save the swamp! (Link in thread!)

Right now, there is a weird calm at the office. Did we forget something, or are we just prepared?
