I've got Naughty Claus, ho-ho-ho :santa:
Tuning these clickers to be interesting while they load can be really hard. I love the art. I wish there was something to do while I wait for the progress to be ready to make a new purchase. Like how in cookie clicker I can always click the cookie.
Game cuts off the top of the score for me :(. Was able to scroll down and find the full screen option though which worked!
Real simple concept but the art is nice. Wish there was some audio.
Wasn't clear to me I had to get all the upgrades to finally summon the human but that's all good.
Having a simple restart button would have made it more enticing to replay.
Oh, and I got "Baby Belle" - "She'd pop up if someone mentions pickles and ice cream". O_o.
I got Max Fury twice. :P
@sobigdrasil This guy is a true brat!
@pupirka My absolute fav :)
@mrventures @timidger You guys are so right! I didn't add a lot of the features that I initially planned due to time and (mainly) skills constraint. Thanks for sharing. Also Baby Belle is pregnant :)
@bitluderrb7804fr Maybe treat it like a sign haha
Artwork is phenomenal. Love it! It's a shame that I can't give a rating for graphics. It would have gotten a 5/5. The game fits the theme very well and my funny bone was tickled when Ritz Richie demanded caviar.
I like the concept, however it took a while for me to understand the concept. Before I did I was not sure what I was doing and why. To know that I would eventually summon a character, would make me curious and the way there would probably be more enjoyable.
Another idea that I think would work well is a "pokedex" of characters that you have gotten. Would give the player a sense of progression.
Overall, good work. Thanks for the experience :)
@cibums A very thoughtful feedback, sir! The suggestions are very reasonable. Thank you!
Good work, UI didn't show the top part unless fullscreen, but thats a minor thing.
Interesting game. I assume it's AI Art but that thumbnail/banner image caught my eye so great job with that! I would give art 5/5 if I could, whole experience was very pleasing to look at.
I got a Joy Junior 2x in a row and Rose Buzz third time. Love the characters you summon, I didn't expect them to be regular people. I wish there was a button to restart a game and place where I can see how many characters I can unlock. I didn't feel like I wanted to continue playing after a third time since I don't know how many chars I can unlock and I didn't want to keep getting the same ones. Maybe even ability to put summoned characters on tables so you have to do combinations to figure out how to summon new ones. I know it's a game jam and you probably had to cut a lot to make it in time and it was a good quick experience even without those additions. Great job man, especially the mood/theme you nailed it!
Screenshot 2024-04-15 142908.png It immediately tick my cookie clicker/paperclips urge to click :D When I saw your cover I was, like, no way you can have art this good in 48 hours ! AI is amazing... But back to the game, I could play those kind of games for hours, it's a "good" thing it ends :D
Same problem as others, solved by playing full screen : I couldn't see everything.
@pe7e Thanks! I always forget that LD cuts the web view :( Thanks!
@worldofmush You are so right! I am not competing in visuals because it's just not fair. And you feedback is very on spot as well, it was in my todo list. There are 10 characters btw. Thanks for feedback!
@rpgwanderer Oh another idle clicker lover! <3 Hope you still enjoyed the game despite cut UI, and thanks for feedback!
Got Ash Drained. Cute little game. Though not much to do. I like the look.
"Traditionally doesn’t work in Firefox, use Chrome."
Worked fine for me in FireFox?
@ooboob Thanks for mentioning! I didn't manage to launch it in FF, it was a problem for previous LD, so I assumed. Updated the description
Got Baby Belle hehe
@viniflores Oh, the pregnant lady heh
First game, I summoned Flabbergasted Flo.
Great use of AI. The game looks great. I think the challenge with AI is to maintain a consistent look, and the look is seamless.
The upgrading is very simple, though it's clean and the objectives are obvious. It plays like a multi-step loot box. I only skimmed your description on itch before playing and didn't realize that there multiple endings. Getting Flabbergasted Flo was a hilarious surprise.
I got Naughty Claus! Nice game, brings back memories!
Knowledge is power)
The variety of summons had me replaying a few times. Stopped once I got Baby Belle twice.
The twist with summoning humans to another plane was a really cool theme. The one thing I would have loved to see would have been some juiciness. Some bells and whistles to the clicking and of course the ticking income! (I didn't hear any sounds and since it wasn't a category I guess it wasn't available). Anyhow, great entry!
Got the Scarlet Wrath! It was nice to see a take on the Idle Clicker. Unlike many of them, this had feasible length, a proper ending and real replay value with different characters :) Graphics were really nice, though I'd liked sound effects and some music too.
Great work!
I got flabergasted flo > rose buzz > flabergasted flo
- Cool art and nice summon twist - It was fine doing it once, but it definetly gets boring trying to meet more cahracters - I use firefox and it was cut both here and on itch. Here I could at least scroll down to the full page button

I got naughty claus :D I think the art style and the game is very fun. It was not too long which is good for a jam game. Thank you!
Screenshot 2024-04-15 185034.png
Oh no, idle games, my only weakness! Thank you for not making it endless, I would be sitting here for hours, haha. Great idea, I wouldn't even guess that there would be a clicker/idle game (of sorts) for this theme. Nice flow, great artstyle and fun endings. I got Flabbergasted Flo! I wonder what she would think about hardstyle tho.
2024-04-15_19-38-13.png
I got Sinister Sam. Liked the idea of "reverse" summoning.
Lol, funny game! Even if it's short and there is not very much to play, generated summon is a great idea! It forces me to try over and over :D This one is my favourite but I'll keep trying ;) It's a shame there is no audio, though :(
Snímek obrazovky 2024-04-15 v 20.00.18.png
I got the Sinister Sam too!
I got naughty claus! I think this game is a nice twist on the theme. Good job
There is something facinating about this genre. At surface it seems to boring, yet you still finding yourself clicking, clicking and clicking.
I like how you managed to create something in the genre you enjoy but what was also faithful to the theme!
Omg, the characters are so cute! Are they yours or generated. I'm guessing yours since they have such consistent style, really great work in that case! Fun that you got a random character from a bunch, makes it much more rewarding to win in a way. Team Rose Buzz here!
I've got the Richie. It's pretty short but fun
jam.png
Love an idle game. Also glad you made this one so short since I still need to play and rate others :smile: Good entry, had fun!
I got sinister sam!
cool cookie clicker game
wow the art is amazing, I got joy junior, no idea what this guy is doing in hell :D I really clean and polished clicker
rosebuzz.PNG
Number go up, I like.
so cute game,Love idle game so much, game art is awsome
Scarlet Wrath
Cute game! Love the art/animation. I got baby belle.
Wow that’s a lot of feedback overnight! Amazing to see your different fav summons <3
@arcolm @ascenial @wolderado @jcmonkey @afi-olya @jejkobb @olddog @elbbard @rob6566 Thanks for playing!
@mightyelf @dagon @elemel Sam is a popular creep I see!
@pincushion Glad I could surprise you! Thanks for playing and feedback
@ghettobastler OMG, the Naughty Claus? What memories if I dare to ask? hahaha
@harmadillo I am so glad to hear it! I hope you enjoyed and have your favorite :)
@gettingrekt Thanks for the feedback, you are so on point! Audio is my weakness, and this game is indeed deadly silent. Thanks for playing!
@paprigames @xuanqiuyun I think you two are the first who managed to summon a non-human! Thank you for your feedback
@ellaris Thanks for the feedback! Cut UI is a weird bug I see in a lot of web embedded games on LD. Hope you enjoyed anyway!
@dzejpi Oh hello fellow idle games fan! I’m so happy you enjoyed the game. And Flo would probably be opposed to any music that is younger than 70 year hahaah
@jiri-hysek Oh thanks for you feedback! I’m happy you enjoyed playing again and again!
@nash Appreciate you feedback and thanks for playing!
@fredrik-andersson I hate to disappoint, but the character base is AI, I worked on them more after generating but I’m not taking the credit here. I am glad you enjoyed!
@maggardjosh Haha, saved you time for sure! I treat game jams as a tool for concept proofs, but also I’m not skilled enough yet to make anything longer hahaaha. Thanks for playing!
@castitatis All good, he was just summoned, not for his sins for sure haha. Thank you!

Awesome game submission!
Clever use of the theme. Really loved the artwork.
Overall great work!
Got Flabberedgasted Flo, quick and cool game!
I really like a concept!
Cool little idle clicker game! I think the idea could scale well :)
Would definitely help to have even the smallest sound effect, borrowed or otherwise. I also wish the game managed to get expanded a bit more, as I normally love idle games, but this was a bit short. You could reuse different colors of assets to save time, and maybe have it so each unique victory summon costs more each time instead of requiring a restart. Found a "bug" where you can't summon from the 13k without maxing out the previous demon. Despite you opting out of the graphics, I'm surprised you got the style so consistent. Very easy to understand how to play.
Amazing game guys!!. nice farming souls simulator jeje. The only think is that, Honestly, I'm quite confused if any part of the art is done with AI or not, but despite that, it's very well integrated with the game. I really liked that each game finished diferent, i get this demon. Nice j Captura de pantalla 2024-04-16 164126.png
Cookie clickers are nice for Game Jams because they are easy to make. They are a great fall back if you have less time than you originally thought!. Nice work!
Sweet short game. Too bad it doesn't have audio, it would have added a lot. Good job!
Fun and bold idea to do an Idle Clicker :smile: The graphics are fun, now I kinda want a proper demonic idle game
image.png It's a clicker!!! if it was any longer I would definitely spend hours upgrading those demons! I got the naughty claus!
image.png super fun idea to make an idle!
I was not quite sure what I was playing at first. I did not read the description on purpose to see if I could get it from just playing the game. Looks quite nice, but there was not much to do :sweat_smile:
A funny ending! That's a cool part. I think the game doesn't give much choice though, even for an idle game
I got Rose Buzz! I'm not a fan of idle games in general, but this one was short enough to be enjoyable. Took me a moment to realize that I needed to max out all of the devils to perform the summon. Artwork looked fantastic
Very Neat, smol idle game with cute esthetics.
I really like the idea of a reverse-summoning, it made me laugh. :D Others have already mentioned things I wanted to write about, so instead of repeating the same things I'll just mention that the variety of characters you get is great. So far I've got Joy Junior, Sinister Sam and Max Fury. It kinda makes me want to keep replaying it to find them all. :D
Really great art, feels very polished! I did miss having something to click on manually while I waited for my demons to summon things.
Cute short game! Had a good bit of fun seeing different people I could summon. Nice work!
Simple, but well executed! I need to create one of those sometime, love the clicker games
That's the proof you don't need to make complicated things to have something nice ! Well done
@meepster @punniz @dywanix @aaron-hart @enver-arco @jnur @naplz98 @tranzit @duudel @cristian-gurra @bit-flipz @juggern4uti @lightningst @missingpixel @cmakota @flokami Thanks for playing and feedback! <3
@trogdor-20x6 @yorsh You are so right, audio would do good, but it’s my kryptonite, I will crack it one day… Thansk for your feedback!
@zekysky You got the only demon out of all summon options, congratulations! Haha. And characters are AI generated, with sometimes heavy post-processing but not enough to opt in for Visuals category. Thansk for playing!
@lcstark Thanks! I guess having an album of unlocked characters would help even more
i got a Naughty claus! haha! cool mini idle game :)
Screenshot 2024-04-17 170015.png
I got naughty clause! I really enjoyed playing this short little idle game you made. The graphics look good and the game play felt great but I didn't hear any sound. Would have loved to have a little more game play in there just cause I was ready to strap in for a couple hours! hahaha
Ive Got Ritz Richie, its very sausy
I got Flabbergasted Flo. This seems like it could be a fun idle game concept! (Summoning random characters that maybe affect your scores?)
I don't like games like this, but I confess that I had a good laugh. The art really caught my attention and the lack of sound was "too loud". There was a lot of creativity in creating the characters!
Congratulations!
I was blessed by naughty claus!
a42e4812021b70c8330131b056661e02.png
Short, but very polished; like a good jam game should be :smile:
Very clean and polished entry, well done! Also got the naughty Santa :)
I like clicker games, but they are made interesting by the weird stories that unfold 'between the lines'. I liked how you tried to accomplish that by summoning random funny humans at the end to accomplish this even though the game is very short. I think a little bit more content would have helped you here, but we all know that gamejams are just not very friendly towards 'just add more' :grinning:
Oh and I got Baby Belle!
Simple and fun. Well done!
Знімок екрана 2024-04-18 225251.jpg
It's a good background clicker idea. Art looks nice but it would be even more atmospheric with sounds and music.
A very interesting idle clickers. I have always felt that the numerical design of this type of game is very profound, so I never dared to try it hahaha. Plus, I really love my cute Joy Junior! ! !
The characters are very fun! :D The idle game was a little bit too simple, there wasn't really much room for strategic choices
Nice simple game, good job! Art is opted-out but it looks pleasant. Summoned Scarlet Wrath :)
I got Ash Drained. Cute little game, it's just a shame that there are no sound effects.
Screenshot 2024-04-19 191111.png
Simple game but well made ! The idea is different from what i've seen, good work!
As mentioned, it's a shame that your game doesn't have sound effect as it could simply greatly improve the experience! Maybe also adding like a human-dex, to see the collection of humans we summoned, to motivate to re-try ! Nicely polished though, well done ! :)
Nice and fun compo game :) (I understand the lack of time for audio :/ ) Capture d’écran 2024-04-20 123648.png
Ash drained and Naughty Claus, two funny characters, with a nice description.
As said in the description there is no sound, too bad! :__(
But full of humor ;)
I've got Rose Buzz :smiley: The only thing this game lacks is fire animation. Good job!
I got Ritz Richie. He wants caviar for breakfast. Nice and short, very enjoyable!
Got Ritz Richie too. The art looks really good. Nice entry!
Great little entry! Nice level of polish time constraints considered. Wish there was some sort of audio 😉!
Very nice graphics though some sfx would improve the experience a lot. I found it funny that there were wooden tables and books in such a hot environment :smile: I kinda wanted more clicky clickers to mess with but 48 hours is a short time. Congrats on getting it done and all the nice art you put into it. Screenshot 2024-04-22 160320.png
I got Ritz Richie, for the three playthrough I did. I don't know the odd, as I see in the comment there is a lot of characters you can have, but it was really funny to play.
Cute game! Bit short
Missing audio but a cute little game, good job in 48 hours!
lwwndKFTa2.png
I also got Rose Buzz
That's a smaaart idea for the character-generation ; )) Good job.
Got Flabberghasted Flo! Looking through the comments it seems like you have quite a number of possible summons, love it! Always a fan of idle clickers.
