SpellsThere are three different kinds of attack spells and one defensive spell that the cat can use when battling monsters.
Magic MissileMagic Missile is the basic attack unlocked at the start. It requires no MP and creates a small projectile that shoots in a straight line towards the monster. If it misses it bounces off the walls and obstacles.
At level 5 the Magic Missile is upgraded and becomes a homing missile, making hitting monsters much easier.
FireballFireball is a more powerful attack that's unlocked at level 2. It consumes 20 MP on use and can be shot over obstacles. It creates a small explosion on hit.
At level 13 the fireball becomes stronger and faster, the explosion it creates grows as well.
VoidVoid is a powerful spell unlocked upon reaching level 8. It requires 60MP to use and creates a large explosion that can damage multiple monsters at once.
At level 22 Void gets a lifesteal effect that makes it heal the player by a fraction of the damage dealt.
ShieldShield is a defensive spell unlocked at level 18. It costs 80MP to use and gives the cat 30% armor, which protects it from losing HP while it's up. After being upgraded at level 26, the spell's potency goes up to 50%.
