Read the full Starter recipe

Build a small, playable browser game inspired by "Spell Swing" (RPG).
Concept: JRPG Roguelike.
Tech: use Phaser; keep it to a single page that loads instantly with no login or install.
Controls: keyboard and mouse on desktop, shown on a short how-to-play screen.
Multiplayer: the original is listed as multiplayer. Start with a local or bot opponent, then add online play (e.g. WebSockets) once the core loop is fun.
Core loop: include a timer or round clock, progress saved in localStorage.
Audio: add simple sound effects and music (start audio on the first click/tap).
Steps: 1) get the core mechanic playable with placeholder shapes, 2) add win/lose conditions and restart, 3) polish feel, visuals and sound, 4) add your own twist (setting, character or one new rule).
Make it your own: don't copy the original's name, art, text or code.

Remix notes (our suggestions, not the creator's)

Spell Swing is a Phaser RPG pitched in two words: JRPG Roguelike. It's multiplayer, which is unusual for both genres. JRPG turn-based battles plus roguelike runs is a great match, because quick fights become exciting when each run is different. Remix idea (our suggestion): keep turn-based battles and fresh runs and add a twist to how spells work. Spells that combine when cast together in co-op, a timing bonus for pressing at the right moment, or spells that change the battlefield would make battles feel alive. Prompting tip: ask your AI tool to store characters, spells and enemies as JSON, generate run maps from a seed, and keep battles under two minutes. Add an action timeline so players can see turn order. For co-op, start with two players on one device taking turns before going online.
