Apr 16 00:46:05 Manku the Magician ♥ 6 First entry to evaluate and... wow! I hope they're all this good! Very impressive, congratulations to the team! It looks super polished, and the jazzy music is nice. Sometimes it's a bit unfair, as the rabbits aren't grabbed, and I didn't understand why. Also, I assume we're supposed to grab them by the ears, but I didn't understand how to control that, especially since it's already hard enough to grab them at all. Overall, it was fun and a pleasant discovery! Well done!
Apr 16 00:47:45 1m 40s Act Swiftly ♥ 4 Hi ! Unfortunatly your embedding doesn't work ! Please let me know when it is fixed ! :)
Apr 16 00:56:24 8m 39s Conjurer's Conundrum ♥ 3 Nice entry, really enjoyable. The puzzle mechanics in place are very nice, though I maybe wish the puzzles became more challenging more quickly. It would have been nice if you had added sound effects and music, as they could have enhanced the game's atmosphere.
Apr 16 01:00:55 4m 31s The Grand Summoner ... of Lifts ♥ 2 This is a crazy idea ! Very simple, and yet (personnaly), very effective and entertaining ! Really like it, well done !
Apr 16 17:15:52 16h 14m They Ran Out Of Flying Spells So Now I Summon Platforms ♥ 1 Very innovative approach to platform games, I really enjoyed the idea! The timing might not be immediately intuitive, but it makes the progression more rewarding. It's a shame there isn't a bit of background music that would contribute a lot to the game's atmosphere. Well done!
Apr 16 17:21:55 6m 03s The Book of Summons ♥ 2 The ambiance and artistic style are very well executed, congratulations! That's funny, we had the same approach for the game theme, but with two very different results. It seems sizing puzzle games correctly can be challenging, especially with just a weekend to do everything. Unfortunately, I only managed to uncover one summoning, and I have no clue about any other approach than randomly testing combinations to discover the other summons.
Apr 16 17:29:14 7m 19s Claws and Conundrums ♥ 4 Very impressive! The atmosphere of oppression is perfectly set during exploration. I do wish I could run and jump around during exploration, but I guess that would be inappropriate given the mood of the game, haha Nice entry, well done ! (And also, especially impressive that you made it an embedded game...)
Apr 16 18:11:53 42m 39s Slumlock the NEET Summoner ♥ 4 The eerie atmosphere was really well executed, it was a truly unique experience. It was challenging to keep up with the needs and maintain good health! Perhaps speeding up the character's movements could make it easier to maintain high levels on the gauges?
Apr 16 19:16:44 1h 04m Magic Falls ♥ 1 Nice little game, especially for a first jam ! Well done !
Apr 17 17:24:51 22h 08m Demon Keys ♥ 1 Simple but extremely polished. The atmosphere created from just a few notes and the cute demon sounds is brilliant. As you mentioned, it's a shame that you could only spend a day on it, cause I feel that with a twist in the gameplay, it could have been truly perfect ! Very nice entry, well done !
Apr 17 17:30:45 5m 54s Ring It On ♥ 1 I must be really bad at the game when I see other people highscore, as I get quickly submerged by ennemies ! Nice entry, simple and yet addictive !
Apr 17 17:35:53 5m 08s WIP (actual game name) ♥ 0 Controls for the character are reeeeaaaalllly good I feel ! As mentioned by others, it is sometimes difficult to properly place the objects. Maybe by allowing to rotate the camera it could help ? Overall, very impressive and polished game, it was enjoyable to play it. Well done !
Apr 17 17:45:43 9m 50s Matthew, Emissary of Balance ♥ 3 I'm sooooo glad you made an html5 version, the pictures of the game make me really want to give it a try ! It was awesome, I really liked it ! Simple, yet addictive. Good sense of progression, good game feel. I rate it and i'll give it another try ! congratulations !
Apr 17 18:34:02 48m 19s Summoner's Recipe Book ♥ 3 The production quality is incredible, congratulations to the entire team! Like others have mentioned, I struggled to understand what the information related to creatures meant, and how the resource generation worked. I did rituals randomly, testing the new resources I acquired, but without much idea of how to progress logically... But this game is one of the best entries I've seen in the jam so far, so once again congratulations to the entire team !
Apr 17 20:20:31 1h 46m Ratastrophe ♥ 3 Really cool artwork ! I agree with other reviewers that the controls are sometimes difficults, and I ended getting bitten will summoning because it took me too long to do the whole ritual. Nice entry though, well done !
Apr 18 02:04:56 5h 44m Delvecologist ♥ 1 Really good entry, high production value I feel ! The puzzle were really hard for me ! Well done !
Apr 18 02:09:04 4m 08s Penguinology ♥ 2 Totally unexpected but enjoyable short experience !
Apr 18 02:12:39 3m 35s Fiend-Zone ♥ 2 I really enjoyed the game ! It's simple, yet I wanted to go and summon the 7 fiends... Well done !
Apr 18 02:25:37 12m 58s South City Worker Exam ♥ 1 Very interesting submission! The lore-sharing format is a good idea, but as mentioned by others, I was hoping for a conclusion or an event at the end of the evaluation period. Daring idea, well executed ! Well done !
Apr 18 02:30:02 4m 25s Wrath of Elements ♥ 1 As mentioned by others, it took me a couple of seconds to understand how I was supposed to summon the entities. Then it's a nice tower defense, with a nice gimmick of waiting for the good element while also checking that you are summoning at the right place. Overall, an enjoyable entry ! Well done
Apr 18 16:00:36 13h 30m Merlin Agency : The Enchanted Feather ♥ 2 Nice entry ! I didn't get as far as other tester, but didn't had the bug with the inputs. It is a nice idea, well executed. I wanted to learn the inputs patterns, to be faster and better. But is there a way to delete a input without losing the pigeon/patient ? As I tried to be faster, I also made more mistake, that I knew were mistake but couldn't correct them... Well done team, it was an enjoyable little game !
Apr 18 16:47:14 46m 38s The Royal Writ ♥ 2 Congratulations on the game! The quality you managed to achieve with just the two of you in only 3 days is simply stunning! For a jam, the game is just perfect. Nothing to criticize for a jam game. If I may go further, the gameplay has a lot of potential but could use a bit of polishing to offer a more substantial challenge and deepen the puzzle and reflection aspect. But that's going above and beyond what's expected for a jam.
Apr 18 16:54:36 7m 22s Devotion - A fairytale ♥ 2 The atmosphere you've managed to create for your game is excellent. Sizing a puzzle is complex, and I found myself mostly clicking around in hopes of finding the solution. The map with the points to indicate the sequence is what resembles a puzzle the most for me, and it's excellently positioned and introduced for the gameplay. This game is a little gem, especially for having been made in 2 days by a single person, so congratulations, it's excellent!
Apr 18 17:11:04 16m 28s Bloodrites ♥ 2 Nice entry, the gameplay mechanic is well thought out and has potential to create interest in the game. I also enjoyed the graphics. As mentioned by other reviewers, perhaps adding explanations about the summoning or ransom mechanics would improve the game's discovery. Until the end, I didn't understand the system between the blood drop and the blue resource. The healer is overpowered haha. Congratulations on the game, it was very enjoyable to play and complete the level! (2 minutes 39 hehe)
Apr 19 13:49:28 20h 38m Summoner's Basement ♥ 2 As mentioned before, I feel like 30 seconds is a bit too much (especially because I'm playing it at(instead of) work and spamming the mouse for 30 seconds is kinda sus) Really like your graphics, how did you do this voxel effect ? Overall, a nice entry ! Well done !
Apr 19 13:58:24 8m 56s Lord of Animals ♥ 1 I loved it ! Congratulations for this really nice entry ! The aesthetic is really cool, everythings fit well together. Maybe there is some balance problems, as I felt like the IA improved faster than me, but maybe it's just because I'm bad at the game. I'll definitly come back to this game and try to do better !
Apr 19 17:19:36 3h 21m Spell the Spell ♥ 2 I first wasn't able to play the game as my caps lock was pressed. The idea behind the game is really cool, and deserve to be extended. Animations are really cool ! I feel like the game could be greatly improved by just a simple tutoriel, as simple as a couple of images explaining what is what and where and for what. Overall, nice entry ! Well done !
Apr 19 17:31:00 11m 24s Summon Creativity I ♥ 2 I was about to complain about the loooooong hallway but due to the joke during the game, I don't know if I can ahah well done. But I'd like to say that the game could really benefit an increase in the speed for the player. A lot of personnality for the animation, that's really good. Nice entry, well done !
Apr 20 00:45:02 7h 14m Reverse Rituals ♥ 1 As mentioned, it's a shame that your game doesn't have sound effect as it could simply greatly improve the experience! Maybe also adding like a human-dex, to see the collection of humans we summoned, to motivate to re-try ! Nicely polished though, well done ! :)
Apr 20 00:49:33 4m 31s Sumo-ning ♥ 4 I love your art style ! It reminds me of behemot games, well done ! It was an enjoyable experience ! A nice idea for a small party game :)
Apr 25 16:35:57 135h 46m CallOfTitan ♥ 2 Nice entry, the graphical style, especially of the characters and the introduction, is particularly well done. From a gameplay perspective, I see potentially two points of improvement: the character controls and the introduction of new mechanics in the levels. For controls, the slowness of the character makes the experience more difficult and less visceral. Perhaps increasing the speed and adding a dash would make the game more dynamic... And for mechanics, maybe adding new mechanics gradually throughout the game, rather than just increasing the number of turrets. Overall, a very nice entry for this jam, congratulations.
Apr 25 16:45:43 9m 46s S.L.I.M.E - Summoning Lunatic, Infectious Mold Entity ♥ 1 I think I have a problem with the game (or I'm not understanding something ?) as I have the following image in game : Capture.PNG
Apr 25 16:50:13 4m 30s You have to summon a [slime] to pass the final! ♥ 1 Nice experimental game ! Is there a way to control what you summon, or is it fully random ?
Apr 25 16:54:24 4m 11s Cup of Summon ♥ 1 Good idea for the jam, but as mentioned by others, it's a bit overwhelming at first! I wish there was some sort of progression phase or a small integrated tutorial before diving in. I was a bit lost, and I think I may have served several empty cups before managing to produce something? Nice entry though, a lot of game mechanics in it, it is really impressive, well done !
