About this game
"Its not about the money, it's about the principle." - The Wizard
"One Dumb Wizard" is a 2D Action Rogue-like where you take on the role of The Wizard on their reckless mission to get their money back from The Bartender.
Use your wand and sling spells to gain the upper hand as you fight through hordes of the Bartender's goons.
Craft new wands and change how you play!
As you explore, you might find curious gems (wand cores) and unique types of wood. These aren't just cosmetic! Use them to craft new wands that use entirely different play styles and attacks. Constantly mix and match cores and wood types to keep your advantage and adapt on the fly!
Add some charm to your run!
In addition to crafting new wands, you'll also find various handy charms that you can attach to your wand. Each charm is unique and offers powerful boosts. Some charms even have different effects depending on the type of wand they're attached to! And don't worry, all your charms stay with you as you jump from wand to wand, so collect as many as you can!
With dozens of charms available to loot (and many more to come!), there's no end to the number of ways you can add some charm to each run!
Find and master spells on the journey to your money!
While lacking in pure destructive power, strategic use of spells might be the ticket to save yourself from perishing. Whether that be erecting walls to isolate a fight, summoning powerful gusts of wind to knock back enemies, or quickly blinking out of danger, a true wizard can always use their tools to stay one step ahead! Besides, what is a wizard without their spells?
Try, try and try again...and then maybe try some more.
During Early Access, "One Dumb Wizard" will constantly be updated with new content in the form of new enemies, wands, charms, spells and many more ways to customize your load out each run as well as fleshing out the story. Join the community to help shape the future of the game!

One Dumb Wizard - Limited Playtest Registrations Open!
Heya Wizards!I'm pleased to announce that the first public playtest of "One Dumb Wizard" is now open and taking registrations, so head over the store page and register!FAQWhat is in the playtest?The playtest will be on the current build of the demo of the game that will be publicly available later this month. It covers all of Act 1 ("The Basement") minus the boss of the area and much of the story elements (dialogue, cutscenes, etc.) are removed to keep the experience focused the gameplay. It will also only include a subset of wand cores, woods and charms that will later be available in the Early Access release of the game.Is there a limited number of slots?For this first playtest session, I do plan on eventually putting a cap to the number of players allowed in. There is no concrete number and circumstances may change depending on how the playtest goes.Why not have open registration?To keep feedback and bug reports to a manageable scale. Once I am more confident in the state of the game, more players will be let in to the playtest.How long will this playtest session last?The playtest is planned to run until May 11th, 2026.Where do I submit feedback/bug reports?I will mostly be monitoring 2 places: the Discord (the link to which is available once you have access to the game) and the Steam Discussion board. Though if possible I'd prefer any feedback and bug reports be made on the Discord as I will likely be spending more time monitoring that.Read full article on Community Announcements (MixelPixel)
