Woah, this was a cool game and you have a trailer. The graphics are awesome, I love the style and designs. The audio is super cool especially when it went with the spelling. It got really hard really fast since I'm a slow typer.

This one is the gold! Love the art and the way you teach how to play is awesome.

What a cool concept. I wish I could see more siblings early on in the game so you can do family "sacrifice" :D

holy hell, this is so good! the visuals are stunning, the sound design is superb and i love the naturally increasing difficulty by just giving more and more difficult names

definitely a favorite of mine so far!

Hehe this one was funny to play. I discovered that i'm a very slow writer :')

liu-pa-yueh 2024-04-15 14:22

This graphics is amazing, there's even a trailer... Unfortunately, I type really really slow hahahaha XD The combination of this idea works so well that I can almost practice my English typing speed with this game.

Awesome visuals and great gameplay! Love the increasing difficulty!

leoatopos 2024-04-16 15:21

Can't believe it was 3D. Got me.

james-greenleaf 2024-04-16 16:04

Great concept and nice visuals. It's difficult even if you type fast!

allax 2024-04-16 17:55

Great style, sound design is superb for the timing of the jam, nice job

Oh so cool! I love typing games ! Not so good at them though, haha! I liked the graphgics, that "drawing 3D" looks so good. An the sounds are fitting so well !

Athmosphere-wise, it reminds me a bit of Cult of the Lamb. Always love typing games. The art is... chef's kiss. So polished and pleasing to the eye.

Incredible game!

Incredible art, very well done. Just a question, have you limited the framerate ? My GPU started running like crazy in the menu, this is tipically what happen when the framerate is not limited

substain 2024-04-17 10:23

stunning visuals, and a cool idea. I just feel like the difficulty curve to survive is pretty steep in the end - at least I've managed to get 45 souls ;)

yepjames 2024-04-17 10:32

@magnat we didn't limit the framerate!

mathieuspooky 2024-04-17 12:46

This is a very good game! Everything is top-notch: the 3D art, the animation, the sound! Great job.

saryah 2024-04-17 12:49

Solid entry much polish! Awesome you did a typing game, it felt really satisfying to play. :)

fenix131113 2024-04-17 22:04

Super concept i like it. It was funny. But i can't complete more then 1 wave. I not too fast for this

willhoit 2024-04-18 15:21

Looks incredible, really love the art style - any chance of a web version?

danigabe 2024-04-18 15:39

@willhoit We'd love to have a web version but we used UE5 which doesn't have support to build games for HTML5, sorry

helicule 2024-04-19 17:26

Loved every bit of the game, congrats guys!

spex130 2024-04-20 04:55

Oh man, this one is right on the nose! Absolutely on theme and an interesting (and well-executed) game all around! Very well done!

I managed to get 42 names - the full names got difficult faster than I thought haha. It feels like around the time you get more names per person the difficulty of the names go up too? Could just be me guessing though, I didn't do many runs.

thomaswang 2024-04-20 06:59

I really like this game! Easy to pick up and challenging nonetheless; Cool 3D and visual style as well, it is well-polished overall; Could make the demon wave recharge its bar faster so it is more forgiving to players like me who're not that fast at typing :)

phanelly 2024-04-21 15:24

wow. WOW

Genius idea. Genius game mechanic. Genius subversion. Genius graphics + shader. Overall a genius idea for a gamejam game.

No feedback to give. Only kudos.

No ok, one feedback: make it WebGL. Downloading is annoying

prismapunch 2024-04-26 21:34

38 souls down, really fun game. Loved how you start it by typing new game. Some of the names got complicated fast where people had first, middle, and last names (damn the french!) I loved that you were the thing trying to be summoned and you had to prevent people from unsummoning you. Very stylized graphics, loved the red blood font and everything. Great work, would love to see this expanded in some way.

jamieok 2024-04-28 18:25

Veeery full of style from the main menu. Love the art style and the gameplay is simple but hectic. Big fan of the transition from easy names to more complicated strings. Brilliant submission, great work!

dregs 2024-05-01 19:01

Just amazing, 3d yet looks like drawing, short sharp sounds and of course the intro! The only thing i can see that might be an issue is i get the time in the score screen as HH:MM:S not HH:MM:SS. Top marks!

n0va 2024-05-03 21:52

Love the art and vibe. Put it in my collection on itchio :D
