I love exploring combinations like this! I'd have loved to see some kind of payoff for discovering certain combinations. Nice graphics!

A fun little toy to play around with. It would be really fun if the game generated names for the creations based on what parts you've chosen.
@daandruff I thought it would be better if you could name your creations because in some media, when you summon something you have to name it yourself, plus if you try it on desktop it will create a screenshot of your creation with that name.
That's a really fun generator! I liked giving a name to my creation, here is my favourite so far, Werewolfio!

Good job, and awesome pixel art.
Loved checking out different combinations! The UI is a bit hard to read, but it's a fun entry nonetheless.
@sozey glad you like it
@widerhold I'm glad you like it, maybe I should try a lighter red or another font for the text? When I tried the game I didn't see any problems
I would install this on my phone in a heartbeat to mess around creating creatures while travelling. Great pixel arts and very intresting system with merging them together!
Also: this thing is cursed, kill it with fire!

@freamdev glad you like it i was gonna make a android build but i run out of time to find how the screenshoot system would work there
interesting game. i bet it was hard making all those drawings for the combinations.
Hi! I wonder how many drawings you did or its built with some form of modular magic. Thanks
@jcmonkey @sirjupitron I am glad that you both like my sprites, what I have done is use a base template body and make the rest of the bodies based on it, for the combinations what I have done is simply divide the parts into head, eyes, arms, body and legs and have the prefab change them according to the chosen options
Fun little, err, toy..? Wouldn't call it a game per se, but played around with it a bit. Love the graphics. :)
Fun but i wish use the created player :D
The pixel art is great!
@rakowu That was one of the concepts I was going to do at first, but I didn't have enough time to do it, so I added more ingredients to offer more variety.
@feynallein glad you like it
- pretty cool, I liked the monsters - It was a bit short and it would be cool to be able to use the summoned demon in some way, or at least save (I didn't feel like the save button did anything) them and then paste demons from your collection side by side. - It seemed the available ingredients were random, but like there was no purpose to it, only to be annoying, if one wanted to test out a specific combination but was denied by the RNG gods.
@ellaris the save button only work in the pc version of the game, if you try it, it will save an screenshoot of your creation in your desktop, and yes the ingredients were random since i didn´t had time to add some plaftorm or rpg combat to the game, also they were random so people won´t get bored with the same ingredients all time
I agree that randomness can encourage variability and encourage the player to try different things, if the parts had associated abilities/stats then people would find the strongest/favorite one and go with that most of the time, so in that case randomness would encourage them to experiment.
In this case the only thing you get is a different visual, and replaying the game one would want to aim for a different visual than than what they already seen before, since a new cool looking monster is the only reward for their choice. But in this case randomness prohibits variety as it could happen that you keep getting the same ingredients often (at least for a specific body part). Having them all listed would also help remembering what we have already seen/chosen before. It also makes it harder to see specific combinations of body parts which one has not seen yet, but wants to.
There was a nice variety to the combination. Like the music
This is really fun little generator haha. I love the fact that you can name your things. The graphics is really charming and the music is kind of comedic, which IMHO fits the gameplay. Pretty game, one of my favorites so far :) Simple but fun.
@iluvatar thanks, glad you like it.
Very cute, awesome art! It would be nice to see my collection as it grows
Nice sounds, graphics, and it felt like a perfectly normal dungeon summon your creature or character to be or fight with. Nice!
That was a cool creature generator! It would've been nice to do something with them after like watch them roam around a world together doing things.
The song was really fun to listen to!
Art is awesome, was fun to compare creations with friends in discord. A little something at the end for gameplay, maybe a code to share with others and then have them battle with random stats would be 5/5
Your game's style is truly unique; it's hard to believe this astonishing creation was made in just 48 hours. Seriously, buddy, do you have only one brain? I mean, aren't you one of those geniuses with a bunch of brains or maybe cyborg-enhanced? It's really incredible.
And I absolutely love your puzzle design—the difficulty is spot-on, challenging without being trapping. Your skills are the epitome of mastery, and it's genuinely enviable. Pal, you deserve high praise; I thoroughly enjoy your game and am eager to learn some valuable lessons from you.
love this game idea so much,spent a lot of time to test how much formula this game have
Pretty cool! I have made the most horrifying creature of them all: A SKELETON Screenshot 2024-04-17 211246.png
@dinoraz jajaja that should be an award, its quite hard get the same parts for a full pure creature
Very cool idea! Exploring all possibilities was really fun
The art looks very nice, nice submission!
This was LOVELY! You had me with the opening music, but the experimentation with each of the characters was cracking fun. Lovely work.
The character generation was really well done but some kind of combat or adversary or feedback on the creature created would make it a lot better.
Thank you for this opportunity to create horrendous creatures.
🖤
This is really cute! The quality bar is really good all around. Congrats!
nice pixel art and cute little bgm track! reminds me of one of those old flash character designer games but with a retro feel
Ahah! Finally a game where I can let my dark inner self express itself... I'm Dr Frankenstein! :)
Nice cool creature designer!
skeleton are the best
I really like this earworm and mesmerizing BGM hahahahaha!
Simple, cool game well done :)
Cute little game. It does what it promises. I would have loved some easter eggs or special combinations, but it is good enough as it stands.
The concept is fantastic! Combining different elements to create your own creature adds a really special touch! Honestly, the possibilities seem endless! Have you calculated them? Because there truly are a lot! The music is cool, and I would have loved to see some combat or interaction involving this creature. Great game!
Great game, mate!
@milq If my calculations are correct, you can get 59,049 different combinations with just the 9 types of available ingredients.
Interesting jam entry. You can make some really awesome creatures. An autobattler would have been even more awesome using your creations. Unless I missed something it doesn't look like you can use your creations, you can only create them. Still great job.
I really liked this, would have been nice to see them all in the gallery, but only so much time :sweat_smile: Keep on making games!
@frozenfire92 if you play it on desktop you can save them
@josang1567 Ah cool! Unfortunately due to security reasons I only play and rate web games :sweat_smile:
Nice pixel art! That was a fun little creature creation toy. Great job.
Nice game m8!!. I liked how you can do your combinations. Keep working on this!!
I liked seeing the possible combinations but I feel like something more could have been done with your creation. Anyway, it's a nice game. Good job!
Enjoyable combination exploration. I wish there had been a goal though.
Cute little game, the combination stuff is really cute. This would be an amazing little mobile game or something similar. It was fun.
Cute and funny! The soundtrack is a banger as well. Nice job!
