| Apr 15 07:26:42 | The Summoning Goes On | ♥ 1 | Screenshot 2024-04-15 at 09-25-23 itch.io.png Nice concept! The difficulty rises up pretty quickly as the screen gets filled up fast, but the patterns are easily recognizable so you can plan your moves accordingly. I found the yellow "surrounding" circle a bit tricky to avoid as the safe zone in the middle is pretty small, but other than that it's good, and the music is a nice touch! | |
| Apr 15 09:19:42 | 1h 53m | IWANT | ♥ 1 | I could think about was "fight skeletons with rocks", so they beat me up to death :sad: Very interesting concept, I had fun trying to come up with interesting combinations! I found that the board filled up very quickly, and I didn't get as many "I want" pieces as I would have liked. But again, maybe there's a lesson here... Nice job! |
| Apr 15 10:04:53 | 45m 11s | Principal's Office | ♥ 1 | I like this interpretation of the theme. The writing is good, and I think I managed to guess what happened. Nice! |
| Apr 15 10:35:05 | 30m 12s | Runic Distractions | ♥ 0 | I love it! The tone is just the right blend of silly and spooky, and the tasks are hard enough to be challenging without being too frustrating. The only (very minor) issue I had was that the keyboard mapping wasn't right: pressing the "A" key on my (AZERTY) keyboard triggered the "Q" in game, even though I chose the "AZERTY" option at the beginning. Again, this is very minor as I still managed to reach the end by using the other keys. Great job! |
| Apr 15 12:01:18 | 1h 26m | Devotion - A fairytale | ♥ 2 | Amazing! The art is gorgeous, and the minimal soundtrack and sound effects do a great job of setting the mood. I had to check the walkthrough for hints a couple of times, but I finally got the hang of it and reached the end. Simple and effective, great job! |
| Apr 15 12:28:52 | 27m 34s | Wrath of Wrathmus | ♥ 1 | The art and animation are very polished, and I loved the voice acting! At first, I kept bumping into Wrathmus while trying to reorient myself, but after getting the hang of the movement I was able to clear the levels pretty consistently (also, nice ending!) |
| Apr 15 14:06:24 | 1h 37m | Zoomancy | ♥ 1 | That's impressive! The fact that you can erase/redo your sigil as many times as you want gives it a nice "exploratory" feeling, which fits the overall mood set by the art and music. |
| Apr 15 14:16:02 | 9m 38s | Reverse Rituals | ♥ 1 | I got Naughty Claus! Nice game, brings back memories! |
| Apr 15 14:51:14 | 35m 12s | Symthesis | ♥ 2 | Very clever puzzle game! The concept is simple but deep, and the difficulty curve is just right. Good job! |
| Apr 15 16:16:05 | 1h 24m | Graphic-All | ♥ 1 | I found that using the mouse to control the aim makes it very difficult to maneuver around the holes, but I like this interpretation of the theme. Both the visual style, sound effects and voiced bits work great together. Nice job! |
| Apr 15 16:51:08 | 35m 03s | daydream | ♥ 3 | Lovely! I wasn't expecting this when I started, but I like it! Sadly I couldn't get to the end, because I kept dying on the second memory, but I liked this interpretation of the theme. Plus the graphics and audio really set the mood. Nicely done! |
| Apr 15 17:26:55 | 35m 47s | The Klent | ♥ 2 | Great game! The flying mechanic feels real good, and the platforming is tight. The retro art style and the music really brings it all together. Good job! |
| Apr 15 22:15:05 | 4h 48m | Flying Buttress | ♥ 1 | That's some pretty tight platforming! That dive mechanic and the way you gain momentum kinda reminded me of the old Sonic games. Nice job! |
| Apr 15 23:01:37 | 46m 32s | PIED PIPER | ♥ 2 | This is a great puzzle platformer! The mechanics are great, and the puzzles very clever (especially the one based on the last ability). The overall theme is also a nice take on "Summoning". Love it! |
| Apr 15 23:29:22 | 27m 45s | Summing Circle | ♥ 1 | Aww yesss: maths! Nice take on the theme. The game is really polished, great job! |
| Apr 16 10:32:58 | 11h 03m | Race to Kaiju | ♥ 1 | Really like this concept! I didn't understand the connection mechanic at first, but I got the hang of it on my second try and managed to reach the kaiju. As mentioned in the previous comment, I think that showing the radius of the ship's cannons would be a great help. Nice job! |
| Apr 16 10:43:32 | 10m 34s | Moth Magic | ♥ 1 | Nice cartridge! As others have said, the particles are a bit much, but the fetching/planting loop is interesting. I had some trouble finding the flower, so would suggest having some kind of indicator/arrow hinting at where the flower is. But all in all it's a cool game, and the art style is lovely! |
| Apr 16 10:56:30 | 12m 58s | Unholy One | ♥ 1 | Sadly I couldn't play because my keyboard is AZERTY 😢 The game looks very good, and the voice acting is funny though! |
| Apr 16 11:52:23 | 55m 53s | The Great Witch | ♥ 1 | Amazing! This is so fun, cute and polished. I kept playing way after wave 10, and I loved it. I'd say the only minor issues were that I couldn't see which creature I was feeding, and what upgrade they already have. But this is only minor, I really enjoyed this game and I would love to see it further developed in the future. Also: bonus point for the creature's eyes following the witch when they're carrying an orange. Great job! |
| Apr 16 12:04:02 | 11m 39s | bergs | ♥ 2 | Great game! This concept feels like it could lead to a lot of interesting puzzles! As mentioned in the previous comment, one of the levels has a switch that doesn't trigger, but the overall result is great (also at some point I just kept on mashing the "summon" button just because I loved the silly voice clip) |
| Apr 16 13:16:01 | 1h 11m | Path of Aratron | ♥ 1 | Great puzzle game! This is a nice twist on the "programming game" genre, with a lot of style and polish. Amazing! |
| Apr 16 13:36:37 | 20m 36s | Diablillos | ♥ 0 | Nice cartridge! The graphics and gameplay are both simple and very effective, though I must admit I wasn't able to finish it (maybe because I'm playing on a touchpad...). Great job! |
| Apr 16 13:38:53 | 2m 16s | Summon the Intern | ♥ 2 | Great interpretation of the theme! Very hard, but I like the art style and music, and the game feels really polish. Nicely done! |
| Apr 16 13:58:04 | 19m 11s | Dark Ritual | ♥ 0 | Nice puzzle game! The level progression does a great job at explaining the different mechanics. Good job! (note: I somehow managed to get softlocked at one point where I entered the ethereal realm without unlocking the unholy flame ability, and couldn't return to the room with the chest to get it) |
| Apr 16 14:23:26 | 25m 22s | Summon The Waiter | ♥ 3 | Oh wow, I genuinely laughed playing this! I love how you went all in with this unique interpretation of the theme. Bonus points for the animation in the intro cutscene, and for the gently spinning cats. Great job! |
| Apr 16 14:33:11 | 9m 45s | TERRIBLE TILES | ♥ 0 | Pretty much everything I have to say has already been said: being able to see what will come next would help understand the scoring system, and being able to see what sets will come next would allow for more strategy. That being said, the mechanic is very interesting, and as you said there is still some depth to explore with this concept. Also, the design of the tiles is very good. Nicely done, I hope you get well soon! |
| Apr 16 15:31:53 | 58m 42s | Life of a Summon | ♥ 2 | I decided to rebel against my masters mosnter_000.jpg This is so funny, great job! And kudos for making your own engine! |
| Apr 16 15:54:04 | 22m 11s | Echos of Players Past | ♥ 2 | Amazing! A great idea, very well executed. How you managed to design the levels without already having access to a pool of players is beyond my comprehension. I'd love to see this idea explored further. Very well done! |
| Apr 16 16:02:38 | 8m 34s | Demon Keys | ♥ 1 | Lovely short game! While the gameplay is very simple, the whole game is very polished and feels complete. I especially love the little bit of animation on the demon, which adds a lot of dynamism. Now I kinda want to try playing it on a dancepad... |
| Apr 16 19:20:59 | 3h 18m | Sminer | ♥ 1 | This is very polished! I really like the art style, though it does make it hard to identify some of the monster parts from time to time. The digging animation and the screen shake really ties the mining mechanic all together. Also: the music is banger. Good job! |
| Apr 16 20:06:44 | 45m 45s | SokoBane - Descend | ♥ 2 | Nice puzzle mechanics! As others have said, I'm curious to see how the laser-monsters would interact with the others. Good idea, well exectued! |
| Apr 16 20:28:42 | 21m 58s | Blood of the Altar | ♥ 2 | Really fun, didn't see the time pass while playing! The running animation made me laugh, and the overall look of the game is really nice and juicy. Nice to see controller support on a web game! |
| Apr 16 20:43:32 | 14m 50s | Cosmic Misadventures | ♥ 2 | Wow, this art is amazing, especially the cutscenes! The puzzles are nice and chill, which fits the mood set by the design and the music. Extra points for the mouth-sound-effects. Loved it! |
| Apr 16 20:59:38 | 16m 06s | Demons stole my stuff | ♥ 1 | Nice puzzle mechanic. I found the clues to be just right in terms of difficulty. I agree with previous comments saying that sounds effect would have improved the overall mood, but the crisp graphics already carried it a long way. Good job! |
| Apr 16 21:25:03 | 25m 25s | wiz | ♥ 1 | The difficulty seemed to ramp up pretty quickly, but the mechanic feels very unique. I'm curious to see how this concept could be explored further! The overall look is very nice and polished. Well done! |
| Apr 17 19:47:50 | 22h 22m | The Summoned Struggle: Tales of a Tag-Along Demon | ♥ 2 | Nice game! With this kind of flat sprites in a 3D space, I often find it difficult to see if I'm correctly aligned with the enemy, but here it gave me no problem! I also really like the cute aesthetics. Good job! |
| Apr 17 20:11:10 | 23m 20s | Dark Summoner's Forge | ♥ 1 | Very nice, I had to stop myself from playing because it is so addictive! Maybe I missed something, but it would be nice to see the characteristics of the different units before spawning them. Nice game nonetheless! |
