Apr 16 00:59:20 Angel's Inferno ♥ 4 The web version wouldn't load for me so I had to download the win64 build. Fun idea running around the house putting out fires trying to keep the temperature down. Got to around 30s left. Good polish with the emissive materials around, and the voice lines telling you what needs to be done is a nice touch. I found the game very difficult, I attempted 4 times but could not beat it. Having the same button to activate the fire extinguisher and interact was a bit frustrating, is there a way to drop it? Overall great work!
Apr 16 01:01:59 2m 39s Magic Falls ♥ 1 Fun little top down game. The hit sound is quite shrill I had to turn the volume off. Player moves pretty slowly. I do like the idea of having to charge up your spells and place them. Had a few minutes of fun
Apr 16 01:16:49 14m 50s Demonic Fridge and Vegetables From Hell ♥ 2 I didn't exactly know what to do? I ran around and opened all the chests, I put an apple in the fridge, and had a ton of hearts at the bottom, i pulled the lever. But no enemies were appearing. Unfortunate because the art is super nice and I like the lighting effects. Also there was no sound, not sure if that is intentional or not.
Apr 16 02:22:21 1h 05m Boots Of Summoning ♥ 2 Good vibes, audio and art all mesh well together. The gameplay was a bit bland, shooters are difficult to play on a trackpad
Apr 16 02:25:04 2m 43s Summoned ♥ 2 The whole game was just different shades of purple. Not sure if you put some files in the wrong directory. But I do like skelly-bone people.
Apr 16 02:34:49 9m 45s Witch Courtier ♥ 3 A very good entry, quite creative with the summoning theme! The mood/vibe was very cohesive and cool. It would have been good if you were required to match the constellation shape. The drawing of the 4 runes was hard because the circles were so close together, it was very easy to accidentally go over the wrong circle. The mood and art was great, fantastic job :)
Apr 16 02:41:20 6m 31s Bloody Builder ♥ 2 Was able to summon some guys, looks like they cant move because they do not have legs. After exploring I got all the parts and could summon a guy who attacks. I could not kill any enemies though, maybe they had too much health? The art is cute and the music is nice. The cutscene at the start was a good touch, a little poetry and nice art. The backstory in the how to play screen was good as well.
Apr 16 02:46:42 5m 22s Dance Dance Summoner ♥ 6 Fun game! you do dance moves to summon certain elements to combat enemies. I found it a little hard to see which element I would need to summon next, maybe color-coding the elements of the enemies coming at you would be helpful. The art is great, love the poses the dancer hits. I could see myself getting lost playing this :)
Apr 16 02:50:21 3m 39s C.R.T. - Companion Recall Technology ♥ 4 I like the different abilities your companions give you. The art style was really good, everything fit together. I had a very hard time with the platforming, I could not jump up the vertical section very easily. Sound design was nice as well!
Apr 16 02:54:56 4m 35s Hellpet ♥ 2 Visuals are fantastic, the idea of taking care of a summon with your spells is a unique twist. The audio was missing or bugged for me. I also ran into an issue where I could not walk, but could still cast spells.
Apr 16 03:06:24 11m 28s Kiss, Marry, Kill ♥ 3 A fun entry! I was not exactly sure how to gain favour with the NPCs. Talking with them gave dialog but selecting k/m/k would always fail? The overworld art is cute and the NPC portraits are very fitting. Nice job!
Apr 16 03:19:38 13m 14s Grandpa Ghost ♥ 1 The art is nice. Figured out that you can press space to toggle between the ghost and the guy. No audio here. I could not get the score to go up? I could also run all over the map, going outside of the arena bounds and through the portal.
Apr 16 03:24:46 5m 08s Chibble Nibbles ♥ 1 Great fun entry! The simon-says summoning is fun and gets more difficult as it goes on. Artwork is cohesive and cute. Can get stressful towards the end (Which is good!) Some UI Issues on my display, the vignette only covered 75% of the screen. Other than that I experienced no noticeable bugs!
Apr 16 14:47:25 11h 22m Catacomb Conquest ♥ 2 Same issue as the others
Apr 16 14:52:49 5m 24s Hyper Hydra ♥ 1 Creative deckbuilding game! Took me a while to figure out the card/head placement but very fun once you realize how to play. Simple mechanics that lead to depth, polished experience with good visuals, audio, and gameplay. Great entry! Only thing I would have liked would be more tutorial/explanation, but that is hard to do with game jam time constraints.
Apr 16 14:57:46 4m 57s Leprechaun's Gold ♥ 4 I like the concept! Spells are fun to type, I can see the game getting frantic. You need to be precise with the platforming, not a lot of room for error with the movement spells. Art was charming, audio was a bit rough. Overall a good entry, great job!
Apr 16 15:03:39 5m 53s The Ball and the Island ♥ 1 The web build does not lock the cursor to the game window, makes it difficult to move the camera. I like the cell shading, art style and music makes the game have a cozy vibe. Though I would describe the gameplay as a "rage" game, quite difficult to climb the terrain with the enemies knocking you off. The summoned penguin friends are a nice touch to help with that. Overall good entry, great work!
Apr 16 15:54:21 50m 42s Drunk Dork on Pitchfork ♥ 5 The web version loaded for me, but it took about a minute. What a unique entry! The art is fantastic and charming, lots of polish with the inverse kinematics and animations. The whole game is quite cohesive with the sound and art. Not sure if it was intentional, but choosing where on the pitchfork you pick up the guy mattered. I also had fun just throwing the guy around at the start haha. It is very difficult, made it only a few toilet checkpoints in. Fantastic entry overall, great work!
Apr 16 15:59:01 4m 40s Forge Lord ♥ 1 Nice art style, it is cohesive and the animations were a nice touch. Game feels good to control, having to balance resource gathering and minion summoning was fun. Having different resources for different summons was cool too. I did hear some sound effects but no background music that would have really polished it off. It did get difficult towards the end Overall great entry, I had fun playing it!
Apr 16 16:01:02 2m 01s still unnamed ♥ 0 Game jams are tough! Hope you try again in the future
Apr 16 16:31:37 30m 35s ⸸ INVERSIO NEGOTIUM ⸸ ♥ 3 What a great and unique bullet hell! I made it to the third boss (the pink one) and I almost beat it. Having to draw different signs using the candles to summon minions for attacks is a unique mechanic, really creative. But I found it most effective to draw the simplest triangle over and over. Maybe a per-ritual timed cooldown could combat this. The art was great and cohesive, everything fit together. The bright colors contrasting with the dark background made it easy to read what was happening. I also liked the subtle effect on the floor. The sounds fit the game as well. Overall a unique, creative, and well polished entry, great job!
Apr 16 16:40:37 9m 00s Magecraft Timber Troupe ♥ 3 Fun gathering resources, to build guys to gather more resources. The art is cute, audio is a bit lackluster. The game was not challenging at all though, I had more resources than I could ever use and tons(TONS) of little minions summoned. Fun entry, good work!
Apr 17 21:20:46 28h 40m WORD EXORCIST ♥ 2 Good theme for a typing game, trying to stop a summoning. Once the words flipped upside down I could not do it at all, it was very difficult after that. I did like the art, nice touch having the character speak when you type and the screen shake when miss-typing. Sound effects were fitting as well. Great entry!
