Neat idea!  I had a lot of fun dodging the attacks and I liked that each wizard had a distinct pattern.  For using powers I just spammed the button when I felt like I was in trouble.  I just mashed the color button when I reached an attack spot as well.  I enjoyed it a lot even if I didn't feel like I was playing it correctly.  Great job!
