This is one of the few games this game jam I have played all the way through because I really wanted to! Such a simple concept, I also love that lurking feeling of always being worried if the way you are using resources is going to come back to bite you later on! When I got my first summon with a 4 minute timer, my first thought was "I don't want to sit around and wait for 4 minutes" and then I looked up 20 minutes later at how I had 3 more of him than I did at the beginning and went "huh, maybe this game is really really good lol" great job!

One of the most cohesive games on this jam, I played forgetting about time, addictive, and the art style in general separately is very nice, well done
This was a great concept and I had a great time finishing it! The balance was good and the graphics fit the theme well, good job!

This is insane for a game made in 3 days, i really love the graphics and the game play loop is well made, you have to keep summoning the right units within a time frame to not loose your progress and the 2 different moneys are well balanced. really loved this one thanks

Oohhhh man this was excellent, maybe even a top contender for the jam! Art is great, sound FX on music on point, addicting gameplay loop. A great time overall! I find it hard to give any critique, maybe just that some creatures feel much more useful than others. I never played the eating guy because he didn't give enough of a reward for the damage he might cause. Very very good job with this!
I didn't know this could be so fun.
@heretic To progress further, you need to buy an imp that increases the maximum amount of currency. This is done because among the last demons, there are quite expensive ones

This is extremely well done! I was sucked in, I kept playing and playing trying to build the best money making machine possible.
PLEASE release this game!

This is great! Art and sound effects are especially well done and the strategy is good - it's satisfying to figure out the creature combos and see them play out.
I like the concept, but gameplay should be deeper. It's too simple for now, but it's really has a potential to become something bigger.

You are really great! The game turned out great!
Fun gameplay coming up with a good combination of imps and nice art and sound :) Would be nice if the limit to summon slots would be displayed/explained
Really good game, feels finished and polished Good reflection on game design, I liked playing

Loved the game 100%. It's just made really fabulous overall.
such a cool game with really nice graphics and art and simple to learn gameplay 5/5!!
very polished game, very good balance, however the game gets over way too quick!
Nice quick game. Beautiful graphics and well mae music.
Very polished and cohesive game!
I loved the designs of the creatures and the sail shaped particles.
It would be cool to have some difficulty to the game though as winning seems like just a matter of time, but maybe this is the nature of the clicker genre. I'd still like to see a time trial or "x number of summons" restriction.

I like that the game is finite and immediately denotes an end goal. Many games are endless and the game ends when the player gets bored. Your game is finite and therefore leaves a nice feeling of victory after the game, not boredom. Thanks
Interesting game, also nice graphics and sounds. I didn't really like the stress of my summons disappearing after a while. For me, this type of gameplay seems more meditative. However, it adds a puzzle element to the gameplay which is great. I liked the idea of Prime Summon. Thanks to this, it so happened that in a couple of seconds the number of my resources increased from 0 to 300 :)

Loved this. The artstyle is so beautiful, coherent and pleasing. Everything looks very polished and works well together. And the demons are adorable! I enjoyed playing it a lot.

Very good game it have awesome artstyle and intresting gameplay
Loved the game, exactly what I like, well done
Офигенно! Долго не мог понять, почему я не могу вызывать четвертого Summon Sage, видимо, общее число слотов для демонов ограничено. Еще было бы круто в меню подсвечивать каких ресурсов не хватает для саммона. В целом очень необычное сочетание кликера и стратегии, захотелось написать скрипт, который бы оптимизировал прохождение :)

Very well designed, gameplay is fun and arts are beautiful, congrats !
I really liked the art and design style the most, but I enjoyed just about everything in this game. Great Work!
@nick-blackwood Спасибо за отзыв! Там подсвечивается красным тот ресурс, которого не хватает. Да, индикация не самая удачная - как цвет ресурсов, но какая-никакая))
I love the visuals of this game! The color palette, animations, and the music sets a great mood. Awesome entry!
It really is very well polished, gameplay is interesting and graphics are amazing. Although I wish there were a bit more challenge

This is a cool take on the idle-game genre, I'm not sure I've seen one of these that works exactly like this before, so that's interesting! I think my main complaint would just be that I wish the game would not pause when clicking outside the window, so that I could have it open but be doing something else on screen while waiting for things to build up :p
I liked how active the player's role was in this, and how it was relatively quick to reach the end. It felt a bit like a puzzle rather than a thing you just have to wait for, especially with the low caps on resources. Aesthetics were nice -- I really like the art style and simple color palette, and the sound design was good. Overall, very well done!
thx

This is such a compelling twist on an idle game! I love the slot management aspects and synergy between individual demons, it was really fun to optimize. The prime summons were a great addition as well, they added some variety into how I ended up approaching my unit layouts. The art style was great too, every design was so unique and full of personality. Definitely one of my favorite entries so far :]

The demons are really really cute ^^ Animations are also pretty and smooth. Overall visual style is perfect!
Gameplay is chill, like a clicker with special qualities. Would be nice to play while listening to something, for example.
Music is quite dramatic!
Was pretty cool when I first got an epic summon with Elder Soul, that's badass!
I like different abilities of demons too, adds more variety and strategic opportunities.
Overall, that's a nice idea ^^
