Apr 15 21:48:26 Claws and Conundrums ♥ 3 Very interesting take on the theme. The atmosphere is great too. Great job!
Apr 15 22:09:09 20m 43s Sumémon: Number Nimrods ♥ 2 It is an interesting and fun idea, but it is very hard to get to the target number. My only complain that usage of the theme is not so clear, but I guess summoning numbers is it. And the game froze once.
Apr 15 22:38:39 29m 30s The Royal Writ ♥ 2 The art and music is fantastic. The story is engaging. The game loop is fun. It is sad, but I encountered the bug that prevents me from moving the cards. Restart helped. At the second attempt, I reached the pre-pre-final battle and died.
Apr 15 23:00:20 21m 41s My Occult Therapist ♥ 1 I like the unique take on the theme. The gameplay is simple, but it was fun to read all the dialogues. But it is not always clear what to expect when you choose the reply.
Apr 15 23:15:01 14m 41s Siela ♥ 4 The atmosphere is great. It is fun, but I stuck in this hole. I thought there will be some deadly enemy and the game will be more challenging. Monosnap Image 2024-04-16 02.10.12.png
Apr 15 23:31:37 16m 36s LuciFare ♥ 2 I like the art style of the game, it is memorized well. The use of theme is original. But the gameplay of memorizing the moves is not what I do well. Good luck with your first entry!
Apr 15 23:56:45 25m 08s Summoning Bridges ♥ 1 I think it is very innovative gameplay. At first, I didn't figure out properly what to do, but after some tweaking I managed to climb up to 4 tower. The key is to use right mouse click. It was great experience. I also imagine how it was fun to develop such system as a compo entry. (I wish I had such ideas.)
Apr 16 00:22:22 25m 37s Chuck It Up The Mountain ♥ 1 It reminds me of Tower Jump, a mobile game. The game is way too difficult for me that I didn't manage to pass first level. But I like the mechanics a lot, it feels very rage and addictive. The dialogues are funny too.
Apr 16 00:42:35 20m 13s Depths of Hell ♥ 1 The gameplay is solid. I wish it would had more guns and variety of enemies. The game has potential for development. I managed to get to 4 level and they all look the same, but with more bosses. Nice entry!
Apr 16 01:00:58 18m 23s NecroBit ♥ 4 The one bit aesthetic is awesome. I know it meant to be cheaper to produce, but I like it nevertheless. The gameplay is good such you feel like you're playing for a necromancer. But the game feels difficult, especially when I met the ghosts that shot projectiles. I wish there were health items. Congratulations on your first entry!
Apr 16 01:26:45 25m 47s Undead Survivor ♥ 4 The art and sounds are great, the game looks like it a complete game. The gameplay is like Vampire Survivors, but with summoning and it feels right. My only complain that it was hard for me to understand the summoning spells. Which ingredients summon which ally. Nevertheless, it is a good entry for the jam's theme, as I thought of Vampire Survivors clone too.
Apr 16 02:08:34 41m 49s Sandtown ♥ 3 An indicator where to place an object would be at handy. I also found that it is hard to build a beautiful and coherent buildings because you can't undone a step and you can place a building on trees which is not logical. Other than that, the aesthetic are great and the sandbox game is very lovely.
Apr 16 02:36:34 28m 00s Spellmancer ♥ 0 I can't pass the first level too. I tried all buttons, but nothing happens.
Apr 16 02:57:49 21m 15s Dicey Demons ♥ 6 Very polished game. Maybe the balance is strange and it is not always clear what to do to win as it is pure luck. The gameplay is casual which I enjoyed. Great entry!
Apr 16 03:29:54 32m 05s The Ghosts I Summoned ♥ 2 The game looks great, but I don't understand how to escape from the cell. I just stuck in the first room. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I'm trying to summon the ghost and control it to find a way out, but the ghost can't do much, only walk.
Apr 16 12:49:52 9h 19m Midnight Mage ♥ 2 When I press 1, 2, 3, 4 the screen appears and I can't hide it back. In the end, I don't understand how to play the game.
Apr 16 13:17:36 27m 44s the Crowd ♥ 0 The graphics are nice. I enjoyed the Sokoban-like gameplay, especially the summoning mechanics. The puzzles are not so difficult. The game is very easy to understand.
Apr 16 17:00:17 3h 42m NECRO RUSH ♥ 5 The usage of the theme is great, one of the best for me on the jam. I like animations and art. I glad that there is an easy mode for casual players like me :) I couldn't beat the second level though.
Apr 16 18:05:17 1h 05m Aldoria's King ♥ 4 That is an interesting idea of mixing tower defense and deckbuilding genres, but the game needs more polish. There is no tutorial section and hard to guess that you can summon a monster only on the left side of the screen and only on roads. The usage of the theme is good too. I lost on the 3 wave. Overall, I think you can develop the game further if you want because it has good potential for development.
Apr 16 18:25:42 20m 25s The Unsummoning ♥ 3 I'm curios, does the game have an ending? It looks like waves of enemies are endless. It is hard for me to judge the game because I don't like typing much, but it was fun. I like the design of small quick monsters with few letters and big slow ones with many letters. Nice game with cool graphics!
Apr 16 19:03:09 37m 27s If Only ♥ 1 Clever puzzles! I've completed 5 levels so far. It is amazing how you managed project the summoning theme on Sokoban-style puzzles. I think adding of undo button would be very appropriate. Well done! P.S. You can also add a note how to play in the description. It would be very helpful, but it is not so difficult to figure it out by oneself.
Apr 16 19:27:28 24m 19s DURO ♥ 5 The concept is great! I like how many wizards with their abilities. Only I stuck maybe on 5 level. It was very easy at the beginning, but suddenly appeared the level I couldn't beat. It sad, cause I feel so dumb. Anyway, great entry!
Apr 16 19:44:45 17m 17s Summoning for Dummies ♥ 3 Very cohesive game! The sound and pixel art are great. Well done!
Apr 16 20:16:57 32m 12s Angel Vox ♥ 4 The atmosphere is top notch. Reminds me of old horror games. Good luck to develop a new game soon. P.S. Maybe you should add a standalone build because in fullscreen mode in a browser the guide notes are not visible.
Apr 16 20:34:22 17m 25s Astral Tale ♥ 2 Very short game! I like short games but there weren't enough time to use introduced mechanics. It is sad because the game has a good set of platforming mechanics. (As you've implemented glide and slide mechanics.) I also liked the story of the spirits, like an opposite side of summoning.
Apr 16 20:49:14 14m 52s Soul Pact ♥ 3 Very hard to figure out what to do. The maximum what I've achieved is to open a book. Other than that it is very intriguing game.
Apr 16 21:06:23 17m 09s Sorcerer's Army of Summons ♥ 2 I must say you've created a lot of models for a jam game. The game is fun. I also like the twist on Vampire Survivor formula and adding tile based movement. My only complain that it becomes harder to control the character after you've played awhile.
Apr 16 21:27:14 20m 51s SKELEMANCER ♥ 5 The concept is great, but I encountered some bugs that prevented me from beating the game. The first bug was after the beginning I ran to the opposite castle and no enemy warriors appeared. The second bug was just a crash. I also encountered freezes at the very first summon of a skeleton. P.S. I used the desktop version of the game.
Apr 16 21:45:04 17m 50s Revenge on Grim ♥ 2 Fun little game! I played on easy mode and it was super fun.
Apr 16 22:01:53 16m 49s Summoned Towers ♥ 5 The idea is interesting and it also fun to play, but the concept has some downsides. For example, you should remember the map and build towers on the right paths or it is hard to understand where the enemies are heading as you don't see them. The mini map helps, but it is not enough. in any way, it was really fun.
Apr 17 19:33:22 21h 31m Oliver ♥ 1 Небольшая игра, история которой подана ярко и весело. Перепробовал все опции, но принцессу так и не спас, но и так хорошо получилось, доволен. Как заметили выше, можно было добавить английский, даже и машинным переводом, т.к. текста не много, а приобщилось бы больше людей. Успехов! P.S. Чуть не забыл, это первая игра за джем, которая лучше всех попадает в категорию юмор.
Apr 17 19:59:04 25m 42s Summoner Defense ♥ 2 The game turned out to be not so difficult and with some glitches (my archers glitched and became unresponsive from time to time), but it is short and fun. I also found that archers are the winning strategy. Just build cheap archers more. Congratulations on your first entry!
Apr 17 20:33:05 34m 01s Curse of the Mystical Mushroom ♥ 1 I have to say that I enjoyed playing the game. It is a very simple auto-battler, yet it has variety of options to upgrade your troops of mushrooms. It is also interesting that you've included two themes in the game and participated in both game jams. It looks like the themes are well complement each other. I destroyed the big mushroom. Well done!
Apr 17 21:02:55 29m 50s Matthew, Emissary of Balance ♥ 3 I really liked that the necromancer also plants the trees. I didn't known such Chinese story, so it feels fresh to me. The gameplay is fun, but I didn't notice how I lost the game. I'd thought I was winning. Nevermind, great entry!
Apr 17 21:35:07 32m 12s Deathless Sentinel ♥ 2 I tried the web build, but it has no fullscreen button. You may want to add it in the page's settings on itch.io. After that, I ran the Windows build and it is not optimized for widescreen monitors, so I changed my display resolution and I haven't found any issues after that with the game. As for the game, it is a very simple puzzle. It was not difficult to beat the game, though I really liked the concept and mechanics I think you could add more challenging levels, but it is already good as a proof of concept. I have also to say that the models are great, they look well and polished. Well done!
Apr 17 23:28:09 1h 53m Summoning Circles, Á La Carte ♥ 2 I don't understand how to play. I tried different combination from the book, but I guess I was doing them wrong. A tutorial how to summon a simple monster would be helpful. But despite my issue, this is one of the best take on summoning theme. I liked the idea a lot.
Apr 18 19:32:53 20h 04m Dungeon Evoker ♥ 3 Why have you chosen Z, X, C, N, M, but not Z, X, C, V, B keys? :D Aside from that, the game plays and feels well!
Apr 18 20:58:35 1h 25m The Summoning ♥ 1 Very interesting concept of mining and protecting the altar. There is also a vast upgrade system. The core loop is fully functional, but needs more polishing because there is little time for running from enemies to mining and back again and progress feels slow. I also think if you added some music and sounds it would be better. Overall, good game!
Apr 19 19:35:45 22h 37m Summoner's Delight ♥ 2 The pixel art is adorable. The mechanic is interesting, but it was hard to play with a keyboard. The hand always moved slightly further and the spell was canceled because of that. I guess the game is optimized for a gamepad better. Why have you chosen to not use a mouse? I think mouse would suit the gameplay better. Regardless, nice game!
Apr 19 20:15:23 39m 38s Temptation Summoner's Aprendice ♥ 1 The pixel art is simple, but very effective. I also like chaos on the battle field, but it was hard for me to figure out what to do. I've read comments and agree with others as the game could have more visual feedback when something important is happening. Regardless that, I think the concept is interesting and you may want to improve the game according to suggestions in the comments.
Apr 19 20:46:05 30m 42s Dungeon Internship ♥ 3 I've already seen some games with such mechanics when you read a book with instructions and trying to summon a monster. I really like these mechanics and I think the concept is great. It very well suits the theme. I didn't understand at first how to pick various parts of the body, but it wasn't too long. Nice job!
