Charmixy: Witch Academy is a mixture of Harry Potter and Puzzle Bobble.

It's currently on Kickstarter where its creators are hoping to raise $15,000 to finish it. The plan is to have it out on mobiles by October 2016.

Charmixy takes place at a witch school hidden from human eyes. However, you play as a girl who thought herself non-magical but gets offered the chance to train to be a witch.

As you get on the school, you encounter many chances to dual, either with fellow trainee witches, or the mysteries hidden away inside the building.

This is when the game turns into Puzzle Bobble.

You and your opponent take up a side of the screen and do battle by matching tiles in their board. At the top lies your opponent's victory hearts and it's these you must destroy to win.

Doing that involves, firstly, exposing the hearts by removing the tiles. Then, secondly, using one of your four charms to destroy the heart.

If you want to give an early alpha version of Charmixy a go then you can download it for your PC on itch.io.

As Charmixy will be free to download when launched you cannot get yourself a version of it by backing the Kickstarter.

However, there are artworks, exclusive items, and the soundtrack up for grabs.
