Awesome animations! Took me 3 tries to understand how the game works - but call me dumb, its obvious :D Really enjoyed the art style.

yorsh 2024-04-16 01:24

The web version doesn't seem to load for me on chrome. It's kind of weird as it's stuck on 0% of the Unity progress bar, so I'm not sure it's on your side. Edit : Itch works, its this page that doesn't.

naplz98 2024-04-16 01:28

Really fun game But when I hit retry it doesn't allow me to spawn more demons and I have to restart the page :(

yorsh 2024-04-16 01:30

I really like it! It's simple and fun. Graphics are nice and it has a nice mood. It feels great to play. Music is really great, did you make it?

mmm1008fm 2024-04-16 01:38

wow.. animation, style, sounds, idea

only thing i can imagine, is maybe animation to the background, mb by particle system

but still 5/5

matheus-leite 2024-04-16 01:44

Thank you @nonigirl ! Not dumb at all, we actually included the WASD indication last-minute because we thought it could be confusing when you're first opening up the game xD

matheus-leite 2024-04-16 01:47

Thank you @mmm1008fm , the idea to add particles did come up, but I had never used it before, and the bugs were on top of the priority list 😅

matheus-leite 2024-04-16 01:50

Thank you @yorsh ! Yes, our musician friend @cjrapolinario made the whole soundtrack and sound effects! Really fun recording togheter the war and demon screams voiceovers. As for the Web player, not sure what is happening yet :/

peter-el-panda 2024-04-16 01:54

Great execution! Very well delivered game, great scope for a Jam and the summoning sound effect on spot!

hazard-game-dev 2024-04-16 03:28

Simple and elegant. Really enjoy the art style and it could easily be expanded to add more enemies.

realwangziyang 2024-04-16 04:54

Perfectly complete game with attractive art and great audio.Although there's no tutorial,I can know how to play it as soon as I start the level. The operation feeling is also well-tuned.

impalpable 2024-04-16 06:54

The games sounds, art, atmosphere are all so good. The comabt is fun but my reaction times are terrible XD, it's a fun loop though!

mhanicos 2024-04-16 07:10

Super cool! Really like the gameplay, it's so much fun! Summon sound effects are great

sobigdrasil 2024-04-16 09:11

Daang i like your game a lot! The art, the idea of summoning and leading the guys toward the priests(?) and the sounds - everything is working together so nicely. Also the final scene takes a special place in my heart xD great job!

bitluderrb7804fr 2024-04-16 09:33

Fun little simple game, but yes, also took me 2 tries to figure out...but that was just part of the fun. I really love the artstyle.

rugg 2024-04-16 09:34

This was so cool to play. The music really hyped me up - it also went really nicely with the increasing difficulty of the enemies. I love the little details like which key to start the game with. :D Game mechanics has a really nice twist to it.

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:20

@peter-el-panda, thanks for playing! We laughed hard when we came up with the idea of the summoning sound effect hahaha. Great delivery of the sound due to my talented friend @cjrapolinario :grin:

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:24

@hazard-game-dev, thaaanks a lot! It would be really fun to add more enemies, I agree. We thought at some point about adding a boss that would only die if he was hit by the three types of demons, but we didn't have time haha.

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:28

@realwangziyang, thanks for playing and for the feedback! We were really worried if people would know how to play. I guess it was not 100% clear. We even added the "wasd" indication to help hahah.

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:33

@impalpable, thanks a lot! I guess things fit well because I got lucky I have such talented friends @matheus-leite and @cjrapolinario. I guess the combat goes crazy really fast doesn't it? (When I first played it I played terribly hahahha :face_palm:)

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:35

@mhanicos, thanks for playing! @cjrapolinario really nailed the sound effects, doesn't he? :guitar:

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:43

@sobigdrasil, thankss a lot! We're glad you liked it.

Yeah, those are supposed to be some kind of medieval priests or villagers hahah.

This final scene should take place in the game. We originally thought it would be fun to let the wizard get beaten until his life bar dropped to zero, then there would be no purpose in having a life bar haha. But we removed the life bar and the idea.

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:46

@bitluderrb7804fr, thanks a lot for playing! I guess it really is confusing at first, definetly something we need to improve. Thanks for the feedback! :v:

anderson-job-loeffler 2024-04-16 18:50

@rugg, thanks for playing! The music really adds to the thing, right? @cjrapolinario did a great job composing it. We're glad you liked it!

amberfall92 2024-04-16 22:52

Really like the pixel art. LOL'd hard at the animation at the end when you lose. Simple but fun mechanic with amusing SFX. Nice work! Also I got this score on my first run XD 666game.png

99, Naintiiii naaaiinnnn. I was 1 (one) away from 100, I'm so disappointed (with myself)!

Ok, damn, this was incredible, thank you. From the moment I had to press 6 to start I knew how many Humour stars I was gonna give this, and then the other categories caught up in like 5 seconds. It's a blast.

First I thought I was gonna say the controls feel off and it's too "slippery", but soon I got used to it and got in the zone and it puts you in such an "intense zen" state. It all clicks once you finally stop looking at the button hints and just demolish those villagers like there's no tomorrow.

I just want a full game with more of this. More levels, more villagers, more demons. Maybe more different "spells": like, some are just button presses, some are button combos, use more buttons as the game progresses, make me remember my piano lessons, give me boss fights! (also, I want 12 more games in this franchise heheh)

(meanwhile my brain: *aaaasmodeus*... *luuuucifer*...)

Awesome entry!

ungarblapp 2024-04-17 00:39

This game is such a vibe! The music is just spot on, and the whole sound design is perfect. Love the color palette, and the art overall.

took me a few goes to get into the gameplay, but once it clicked I really enjoyed playing.

great Work!

kotolazer 2024-04-17 17:06

The game is very heartwarming, with a simple idea and implementation. I didn't get to play it for a long time, because my summon buttons stopped working, even after pressing "6" again, I had to restart the whole game. The key selection is weird, but I got used to it. I really liked the game overall

parker8283 2024-04-18 01:11

Fun game! Took me a second to figure out that things were color-coded. But once I did, I very much enjoyed this. Thanks for participating!

gabriel-bissonnette 2024-04-18 03:02

Loved that is was playable with only a keyboard. Super fun and stressful (the good kind of stress) Awesome interpretation of the theme too! Overall great game, gg

cole-cecil 2024-04-18 03:38

I love the art style and the audio! It's really nice that it's got simple controls and not too busy visually.

pascal-fitzner 2024-04-18 17:35

Looks great, but quit hard.

unchain 2024-04-19 01:47

Fun little game. I just love the small animations that I got kicked in the ass after failure.

matheus-leite 2024-04-19 23:14

Hey @kotolazer , thank you for your feedback. Hopefully that has been fixed now. There was a "CanSummon" bool that sometimes was going to the Game Over scene as false and not returning to its original state when in Game again

matheus-leite 2024-04-19 23:17

Thank you very much @13x666 ! (very nice username btw), 5/5 feedback, very inspiring :) We do intend to expand and reuse this game's assets in a larger game

yogurtthehorse 2024-04-20 19:24

Nice. (I am too tired for better feedback, but I just want to let you know that I really enjoyed your game. Only issue I could say from first glance that character movement is a bit vague but may this is something inevitable with your gameplay). Cool entry.

spiralhalo 2024-04-23 05:36

Neat little arcade game. My high score is 80!

freamdev 2024-04-23 06:48

Pretty fun game, especially loved the voice lines for the summons and the dancing demons was a lot of fun to watch :smile:

troggzor56 2024-04-23 09:27

Very nicely put together. The art and audio go well together. Would have loved a longer game in this style, I think.

fishmasterino 2024-04-23 09:58

Nicely executed idea, even if it is simple the graphics and audio ties it all together. It was a bit frustrating that the purple demon spawned instantly but not the red and blue ones.

digital-bacon 2024-04-23 11:13

Interesting game. Love the graphics and art design, and the way the demon's names are called when summoned. Took a bit to figure out how to play. Good work!

sonnybone 2024-04-24 05:16

HELL YEAH! I love this. Everything about it rules. Great use of theme, awesome core mechanic, funny audio, all in a browser score attack game. Bookmarking this one! Great job, congrats to the team!

jhax 2024-04-25 12:21

This is so cool! The premise is fun and easy to grasp and it's presented impeccably. The audio really adds a lovely touch of playfulness to the whole thing. The pixel art's really solid an the animations are just so lively, bouncy and enjoyable!

madness 2024-05-01 03:04

Love the art style of the game and how simplistic it is. The animations are fleshed out nicely and the palette cohesion is also very well chosen. If I had to add my own little critique I would say it needs a bit more guidance for the player but overall the quality for a jam like this is top notch, great job!
