๐๐น๏ธ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ๐ค๐๐งโโ๏ธ Why we should, need and want to vote for ""Wizordum"" as the best indie game of 2023? let's discover why:
๐ฐ๐๐๐ก Among the myriad of indie games released in 2023, one title stands out as a testament to the fusion of nostalgic charm and cutting-edge gameplayโWizordum. Drawing inspiration from the classic '90s fantasy FPS games such as Hexen and Heretic, Wizordum catapults players into a world brimming with magic, chaos, and the enduring spirit of retro gaming.

This innovation, akin to Lovelace's vision, empowers players to shape and share their unique experiences within the enchanted realms of Terrabruma.
๐๐ญ๐ฌ Delving into the rich tapestry of Wizordum's narrative, we are reminded of the words of Ursula K. Le Guin, the esteemed author known for her profound insights into the human condition. Le Guin once wrote, "๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ถ๐๐, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ถ๐๐ ๐ด๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐. ๐๐ณ ๐ฎ ๐๐ผ๐น๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ถ๐ ๐ถ๐บ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐บ๐, ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ป'๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ถ๐ ๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ฑ๐๐๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฒ?" ๐๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐น๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ช๐ถ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฑ๐๐บ, ๐ฝ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ผ๐น๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฎ ๐ ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ, ๐ฑ๐๐๐-๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ผ๐โ๐ฎ ๐ฑ๐๐๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ถ๐๐บ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ถ๐ฐ ๐พ๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐ง๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ฟ๐๐บ๐ฎ.
โ๐ป๐จโ๐๐๐ The integration of diverse spells and magical artifacts within Wizordum's gameplay echoes the sentiments of ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ๐๐ผ๐ป, ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ก๐๐ฆ๐ ๐บ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐บ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ป ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฟ, ๐๐ต๐ผ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ, "๐๐ผ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐น๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐; ๐ฑ๐ผ ๐ถ๐ ๐ฎ๐น๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ, ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ผ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ผ๐ป." In Wizordum, players wield a wide arsenal of magical abilities, navigating secret passages, solving intricate puzzles, and engaging in epic battlesโa testament to the power vested in the individual player to shape the destiny of Terrabruma.

This looks amazing. I have some questions if you'll entertain me! :3
I love the looks of your level editor and I feel it gives us an insight into how you've constructed levels for the game. Are your world geometry assets models that you've imported 3D cubes that you're placing in a grid array?
I'm very curious because I've got a few ideas on the backburner and I think this is a seriously simply and brilliant way to create a 3D environment for a 2D / 3D FPS. I may have to experiment with a similar system myself!
Looks amazing!
