| Apr 16 08:27:34 | Claws and Conundrums | ♥ 3 | Really cool mystery! Like a lot of other people here, loved the page turning as I felt it added a lot of tension to the atmosphere. Great story and worldbuilding, well done. | |
| Apr 16 08:37:23 | 9m 49s | Space Vocator | ♥ 2 | Fun game! I didn't get very far, but I enjoyed what I played of it. Might come back to this one later and see if I can get all the way to 30. |
| Apr 16 11:08:30 | 2h 31m | The Generous Wizard | ♥ 0 | I wasn't able to finish it because I seemed to get stuck trying to complete the bee quest and my character wouldn't start the ritual after the pentagram was drawn. That being said, really enjoyed the vibe of the game and found what I played of it very fun! |
| Apr 16 19:23:55 | 8h 15m | Summoner's Delight | ♥ 2 | First time getting my controller out for a Ludum Dare game but I'm glad I did, I had a lot of fun with it. Definitely felt the pressure rising with each day and quickly zipping back and forth between roasting and summoning. Great art, good humour and good concept. Well done! |
| Apr 16 19:42:17 | 18m 22s | Eldritch Vessel Academy | ♥ 2 | Really great humour, audibly laughed the first time I summoned the imp and the music changed so drastically. Also really enjoyed the banter between the protagonists. Puzzles were straightforward once you understood the mechanics which I really appreciated. Best time was 08:41, a speed runner I am not, but I had a good time with this one. |
| Apr 16 21:40:24 | 1h 58m | Voir Dire | ♥ 1 | I laughed, I thought, I sentenced a Pidgeon to death. Really fun and funny game, the inversion at the end where you had to start getting voted innocent instead was a great idea. |
| Apr 17 12:45:22 | 15h 04m | Sigils Of Abyss | ♥ 0 | Really cool atmosphere! Was interesting trying out different combinations too. I couldn't find a way to regain mana, though I can see in the comments section that a mana spell does exist so I might have just not explored enough. |
| Apr 17 13:18:29 | 33m 07s | Would you still love me if I was a worm ❤️🪱? | ♥ 4 | Fantastic entry! This was so polished it's unbelievable. Great humour, easy to pick up and play (and lose track of how long you've been playing it,) minigames were fun and the general game feel was excellent. Amazing work, would be a worm and wipe out all birds to get back at my ex again. |
| Apr 17 13:35:32 | 17m 03s | Plaguebringers | ♥ 3 | Had a great time with it, lost the first time because I didn't really understand how to get mana back but once I understood the game loop I was hooked. I'm not sure if there's an "end state", since I got to Day 3 and was easily able to kill villagers moments after they spawned. It could have used a win or lose screen, though I must admit I'm not sure how you'd do either. In any case, had a lot of fun with it, well done! |
| Apr 17 13:42:52 | 7m 20s | Luminth | ♥ 3 | Visuals were really great and the core gameplay mechanic was really interesting. Ran into a lot of traps so I didn't get far, but I did enjoy the experience. |
| Apr 17 13:46:50 | 3m 58s | A Dearth of Cats | ♥ 2 | Super cute concept, loved the atmosphere and humour (chuckled at 'Book the 3rd'). Very short but controlled well and an enjoyable experience, well done. |
| Apr 17 13:56:47 | 9m 57s | Dreambound Metal Fan | ♥ 2 | Really nice vibe on this game. Voice acting was fun but it got a little much as the game progressed and more units were spawning. Overall a really fun game though! |
| Apr 17 14:04:49 | 8m 02s | Summoning Ritual | ♥ 1 | Aaah, my heart! Really sweet story. Good way of showing the ghostly platforms are still physical objects even when they turn invisible by having the encounter where they vanish too quickly to jump onto them and off again. Art was great, story was great, all in all a solid entry for LD. Well done! |
| Apr 17 14:22:02 | 17m 13s | Rise of the CatMancer | ♥ 3 | Haha, my sides! Really great humour in this game, title screen music is awesome too. Loved the rapture bar gag of extending in weird directions and all the voice lines. Really solid entry, 5 stars across the board, good luck! |
| Apr 17 14:23:27 | 1m 25s | Frame Wizards | ♥ 3 | Glad you were able to get ratings fixed, just updated mine. Fun little game with some good alchemy exploration, I didn't get very far but enjoyed what I played of it. Well done! |
| Apr 17 14:35:18 | 11m 51s | Summoning Sun | ♥ 2 | Really cool mood in this game, audio is top notch and really sells the ritual and builds on the visuals to create a tense but mesmerising atmosphere. I agree with other commenters that I wish there was a way to tell your progress but overall a really enjoyable and memorable game experience. Well done! |
| Apr 17 14:48:53 | 13m 35s | Baphocat | ♥ 1 | Really loved the atmosphere and art-style, very true to your inspirations. Couldn't quite get the balance right so I didn't last long, but still a really fun and well-polished game. Great work! |
| Apr 17 15:32:02 | 43m 09s | Demonic Panic | ♥ 3 | Very polished game, had a lot of fun with it! Really nice gameplay loop, feels great to summon more and more powerful demons and keep watching my trail get longer with more artefacts. Great work! |
| Apr 17 16:00:42 | 28m 40s | Sacrifice acolyte | ♥ 1 | Really interesting little game, the physics worked well and it was interesting trying to balance keeping the acolytes away from the circle, getting the right ones in the right spots and ensuring you still had enough to change the lost souls if you needed to. Well done! |
| Apr 17 18:47:57 | 2h 47m | Summoner Story | ♥ 1 | Really great mood and incredible artwork, looked really polished! I don't really have any notes to give, I appreciate you including hints in the description. |
| Apr 17 19:11:49 | 23m 52s | Boulder Blocker | ♥ 1 | I wasn't expecting there to be so many levels! Really cool idea that could definitely be expanded into a great mobile app game, if not keeping it as a web game. No notes from me, just saying well done on this. |
| Apr 17 19:25:09 | 13m 20s | Summoner Armin's Bad Day | ♥ 2 | It was a short but fun game, I enjoyed the story and characters. You all did really well. |
| Apr 17 19:56:39 | 31m 30s | Final Forest Fiasco | ♥ 2 | Really enjoyed the story and characters, though wasn't able to complete the final battle unfortunately. It'd have been useful to have another character with healing, but nonetheless I had a good time with it. The twist surprised me, well played! |
| Apr 19 21:20:53 | 49h 24m | Ink Summoner | ♥ 2 | Really clever puzzle game! The way you revealed each spell was really clever, particularly liked using the snail shell for one of them. I did accidentally push the blue key through the wall at one point by landing on it as I rotated, but other than that it was really well polished. Well done. |
| Apr 19 21:36:27 | 15m 34s | Life of a Summon | ♥ 1 | Really amusing idea, I wasn't totally sure if I was putting the berries in the right place or not because nothing seemed to change after I took them all off the trees. It's awesome that you made your own game engine for this though, and really liked the design of the main character. Nicely done! |
| Apr 19 21:46:59 | 10m 32s | Spellbook Shuffle | ♥ 4 | Fun mechanic, it was pretty interesting trying out different combinations and trying to find what I needed (especially when the Water Birdageddon happened.) Fun game overall! |
| Apr 19 21:58:00 | 11m 01s | Board to Death | ♥ 3 | I'm not very tactical so it took me a bit of time to come up with a battle plan, but I really enjoyed how this all came together. Visuals are well polished, good humour too. Well done! |
| Apr 19 22:06:58 | 8m 58s | Pact Factory | ♥ 2 | Like others here it took me a bit to figure out what I needed to do, but I really loved the visuals and atmosphere. Really cool aesthetic that matches the theme well, well done! |
| Apr 22 10:18:02 | 60h 11m | NECRO RUSH | ♥ 6 | Art looks really good, felt great to gather up an army and watch them knock my enemies to the ground so quickly. Couldn't figure out how to summon golems so I wasn't able to get through the higher difficulty levels but still enjoyed it. Nicely done! |
| Apr 22 10:24:47 | 6m 45s | Depths of Hell | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun little game, the only thing I can think to add for feedback is that the gun is a little loud, needed to turn down my volume a bit. Still, I had a good time with it overall. :) |
| Apr 22 10:32:34 | 7m 47s | Camp of Childhood Fears | ♥ 1 | Pretty interesting game! Took me a bit to understand how to get around the supervisor spotting me walking into different rooms. I don't really have much feedback to give beyond that, but pretty cool game for your first Ludum Dare. |
| Apr 22 10:38:13 | 5m 39s | How to Summon a Cat For Dummies | ♥ 2 | Very cute game, I had some trouble with the cat turning completely to face the edge of the screen which meant I couldn't get its attention from then on and had to restart, but I really love the concept, art and sound. Solid game jam entry overall! |
| Apr 22 10:56:01 | 17m 48s | SummonInn | ♥ 1 | Really cool game, love the graphics and the roguelike dice-building mechanics. As others have said, my main issue was the dice cap making it hard to use some of the expensive dice sides I picked up, but still an incredibly polished game. Amazing work, going to probably return to this one after the jam and play some more. |
