Evan(Jiayi) Min, also known as Snowypress
Handsworth secondary

w to jump, a and d to move left and right. 
u to shoot 2 short range fireballs(one on each side)
i to shoot medium-range fireballs
p to shoot long range fireballs
o to shoot twin short-range fireballs
k to shoot the pull wind ball
l to shoot the push wind ball
[ to move the water wave down at the cost of movement speed
/ to earth launch all enemies and projectiles up
z to restart when dead
- for debug mode(jump is enhanced and enemies can't move left and right without outside assistance

In general
Survive using all the elements 
wind and fire can only have 1 ability active at all times, earth has no restrictions and water is water. The difficulty level at top right and the score is top left. When you die, they stay and it will also display your high score for this session.

You can control wind, earth, fire, and water to defend yourself from the ravenous frogs that jump in to eat you

I had major trouble with coding the mechanics with movement and effects. For example, I had a cut mechanic for Earth due to not being able to grasp how to make it balanced. There's also a problem where it keeps spitting errors for repeat projectiles so I decide to ground it in 1 projectile(fireball is 2 classes so I can make it 2) per ability. Also the enemies kept being so difficult that some of my peers thinks this game is way too hard(I have reached difficulty 4 without the debug button but there may be some exploits)

I would say the highlight is definitely that the pull wind force ends up acting as a wall, enemies can functionally jump, the earth has a pretty cool effect, and water's theme of going with the flow makes it so that the player may never be fully able to control water.

thx to pinpinneon for allowing me to use the background music
