Spellspill: Magic Destruction Sandbox

Spellspill is a roguelite about an overpowered mage chasing a rival mage and their army of magic creatures. You'll probably win. The places you fight in won't look the same afterwards.

Every spell changes the world as well as hitting enemies. Fire spreads through dry grass and the wind pushes it along. Water flows and pools. Ice freezes a pond hard enough to walk on, and lightning travels through any connected water. It all interacts: wind fans fire, fire melts ice and water puts out flames. Enemies are full ragdolls, houses fall apart, and the sheep and chickens run for their lives. Each run takes a different route.

It's made by one developer, who says it started as a small physics toy, with Philo Games. It's due on Steam in the second quarter of 2027 for Windows, Mac and Linux.
