As a student of magic, you have the unique ability to create spells of your own design, using techniques taught to you by the Headmaster Wizard, who oversees the day-to-day operations of the Arcane University. Eventually he begins to take a keen interest in your talents, and one day decides to teach you a special spell to help him run a very special errand.
Welcome to Spellbound
In Spellbound, you learn and discover magic techniques, which can be combined to create custom spells using a dynamic particle and magic system. Each technique affects a specific property or behavior of the spell. For example, a basic fireball spell might be created by combining the Propulsion, Collision and Ignition techniques. That is, the spell propels itself towards a target, then collides with and ignites it in a burst of flame. Chain two or more spells together to create powerful combinations, or merge them to cast two simultaneously.
Explore a large, open world with dungeons, caves and monsters. Collect magic crystals to fuel your spellcrafting, or sell them to a shopkeeper for gold coins.

it won't start :C
Sorry :(
Are you able to run it from the command prompt and send me the crash error?
hey :D , i think it's this part, cause it's the whole error and warning part i had in here. I think it might be that i need to buy something extra to start this :(
Looks like you don't have Java installed on your machine. Are you on Mac OS? If so, here's where you can get it. https://java.com/en/download/help/mac_install.html
it's kinda funny, i do have java on here and a few days ago i missed the newest update. Yet after i couldn't open your game i did the newest update and it still says this? Maybe something is off with my pc?
Would you like to join my development Discord? I'd be able to help you there better.
