Apr 16 02:02:58		Bergmål	♥ 2	I'm looking forward to playing this game but the link is dead, sadly.
Apr 20 21:45:56	115h 42m	Upcard Writ	♥ 1	A unique game, and a surprising interpretation of the theme. You are right, one can be "summoned" to court. That being said, I had a hard time understanding the pros and cons of each card. Mainly, I aimed for a balance as much as I could. I did fairly well, with just one or two categories "too high." I especially liked your write-up on the TIC-80 on the main page. It is good to see people are still developing for this system.
Apr 20 23:11:00	1h 25m	SPELLBINDER	♥ 1	Music is top-notch. Graphics are very good as well, with the only exception being the inverted pentagram — a false symbol that derives from the true one representing Christ’s five wounds. That being said, there is a lot of creativity in this game, and I like how you’ve paid attention to the details. Flying is fun, although it was difficult to know exactly where to search for the elements.
Apr 20 23:34:14	23m 14s	Camp of Childhood Fears	♥ 2	A very unusual game with a unique ambiance. I like the graphics a lot. I had trouble at first because I thought I was the enemy — it took me a few tries to realize I was the girl. I wasn't able to figure out how to win the game, however. I was able to summon Matny Gnomik and survive longer that way, but always got killed in the end.
Apr 20 23:48:21	14m 07s	Came and went	♥ 0	An unusual game with a unique flare. I especially like the colorful graphics, though it would be nice to have music as well. I wish there were a way to speed up the text display — I found it too slow for my taste. That being said, there is a lot of potential in this game.
Apr 21 00:23:46	35m 25s	Ballad of Lead Shroud	♥ 2	This looks like a fascinating game. Sadly I didn't get very far due to the lag time — I am using an older system, unfortunately. Regardless, graphics and sound are impressive, judging from what I saw.
Apr 21 01:07:04	43m 18s	Summone 2 Luv	♥ 0	Very creative, and it was fun dating various beautiful gals. Sadly it froze when I got 23 points with Tina. Not sure what happened — perhaps it is just low memory on my system. Regardless, this is an engaging game — well done.
Apr 21 01:37:00	29m 56s	Parmigiano Rolliano	♥ 3	Weird but oddly fun game. Finally made it to the finish line. Ironic that I have to run away from the girls — would like to see more of them.
Apr 21 01:55:35	18m 35s	Who's My Boo?	♥ 0	I love the mood of this game. The graphics are also impressive, and I don’t mind the Halloween spirit at this time of the year, either. Overall, very creative and fun game.
Apr 21 02:04:55	9m 20s	Three Sigils	♥ 0	I got stuck but could not restart for some reason. Anyway, I like the retro-graphics and the minimal audio — it hearkens to the days of the Atari 2600. Sadly the game, like so many other puzzle games, is beyond my ken. However, its sheer simplicity is striking, and I love the aesthetics.
Apr 21 02:19:49	14m 54s	OOOOOO	♥ 1	Very imaginative. Sadly, like with so many other puzzle games, I didn’t get very far — but that is more about me than your game. The music is top-notch and the graphics are striking. An unusual game and certainly one of the better entries here.
Apr 21 02:31:14	11m 25s	Summoner's Cat Defense	♥ 2	There seems to be a bug with the camera movement — pressing W/A/S/D causes the screen to blank out in some cases (I'm using FF in Linux, if that matters). When this happens I am unable to retrieve the display and I have to restart. That being said, it's an unusual concept, and I love the black-and-white aesthetics. I also like the music and audio.
Apr 21 02:45:34	14m 20s	Goofy Lil Guys Try to Escape a Forest	♥ 0	I love the music in this game. I was able to summon creatures 1-4, but didn't encounter any enemies as far as I could tell. Regardless, there is a lot of potential in this game. As @semenov stated, add some structure to the game world — that would make it much more engaging.
Apr 21 12:35:14	9h 49m	The Summoning of the Ice Hammer	♥ 2	I love the artistry of this game — definitely a unique style. One recommendation I have to make is to use actual handwriting instead of a font — this would add to the raw feel of the game. Also, you could have left and right arrows on the side of each screen so the player would know how to move backward and forward. Other than that, I enjoyed playing this game and exploring the world; unfortunately I got stuck with the honey.
Apr 21 17:36:31	5h 01m	Cultists Feast	♥ 1	I like the unusual mechanics in this game; it is good for developing concentration skills and hand-eye coordination. I also like the simple game-play as well — there are times when I need a break from thinking. The story is interesting but I am wary of the demon element, even (or especially) if it's fictional. Aside from this, another imaginative game with much potential. A solid entry overall, as usual.
Apr 21 18:16:45	40m 14s	Franz Bardon's Practice of Magical Evocation	♥ 1	Overall, a very good game. It’s almost addictive — I would keep playing but for lack of time. Also, the division into the five ailments is a brilliant idea and I like the way you incorporated the spirit data. I was not even aware the latter existed — live and learn. Audio is top-notch and very rewarding. Definitely one of the better games I've played of late.
Apr 21 18:41:01	24m 16s	The Mage And The Assassins	♥ 1	I kept getting swarmed and was unable to win at this. But that's probably just my own incompetence. This is a fun game, I love the graphics and the sound. One of the better entries here. Very imaginative.
Apr 21 18:51:19	10m 18s	Pen & Paper	♥ 1	As others have pointed out, this is a fun game — just wished it lasted longer. I also love the artwork, it is very appealing and gives the game a unique feel. One problem I noticed is that the buttons in the lower left of the display and the control instructions on the right are chopped off. Other than that, no bugs were noticed. A fun game with a lot of potential.
Apr 21 18:59:17	7m 58s	Bowl n' Bawls	♥ 2	I like the raw feel of this game — sound and graphics go together well. It'd be good to have a damage meter for the door to see how much progress I'm making.
Apr 21 19:17:09	17m 52s	Wizard Battle	♥ 1	It took me a while to win and I wasn't sure how much progress I was making. But regardless, it was fun — I liked choosing different card combinations and seeing the results of my choices. I love the hand-drawn graphics. The handwriting on the cards was difficult to read in some cases, but I prefer that over fonts in any case. Overall, a very imaginative game.
Apr 21 19:33:36	16m 27s	Faust	♥ 3	Graphics and audio in this game are top-notch. I especially like the drawing of Lilith the White — a very beautiful woman. Unfortunately I only have 6GB of RAM and there was too much lag time with the game itself, though I did make some progress. Music is just as good as the artwork. In general, the idea that you can "summon" different personalities is very imaginative. Nice work.
Apr 21 21:05:47	1h 32m	Orion	♥ 1	A very good game. I love the pixel art and the simple game-play mechanics. Yes, it would have been great to have music as well. Even so, one of the better games here, and very imaginative. I like especially the idea of incorporating the stars into the game — I haven’t seen that before. Nice work.
May 3 00:38:34	267h 32m	Demanager	♥ 2	Graphics are very impressive — 5/5. I especially like the color scheme and the creature drawings. The music is also very good. You seemed to have nailed the theme as well. A lot of imagination went into this game, I can see. One of the better games here. Nice work.
