simple but still fun

The mood and art are there, I just wished I could've done something with all of the monsters I was summoning :sweat_smile:. It was still nice to tinker around and experiment to see what combos summon what creatures :)

I really loved this game! I'm a sucker for alchemy type games where you get more and more added to your collection the more you complete things so this was right up my alley. The art work was adorable! I will say though, there were a couple of bugs. One, after you summon an Epic Monster, and you go back to continue collecting more monsters, if you summon another Epic monster, the text on the screen overlaps and does so over and over again if you continue making Epic monsters. Also, I realized that it only required one Epic material to summon one of the Epic monsters, not two/both of the materials. These are edge cases and more nitpicks than anything, but I figured I might as well let y'all know since I found them. Also, I tried every single combination possible (like I wrote them down and crossed them off), but I still didn't unlock 5 of the monsters. It was driving me a little crazy. I also took screenshots in case you would like to know which ones were missing. This may or may not be a bug, but also just figured I should mention it. Thank you so much for your game! It was a lot of fun and super enjoyable!

A fun simulation of summoning strange pokémon. The style is very much to my liking. Would love to see a version where these monsters can be used for battles

I very quickly got caught up in trying to get all different demons. Fun and simple. Good job

I quite enjoyed this game. Clicking around trying to make other monsters. The bestiary and reactant spell book was a nice touch. Great game!

Really like the UI touch to look at the types of monsters in the bestiary, love the humor with it too! Wish there was a way to track my previous failures, but otherwise i liked the simplicity of the game!

Very cute, my team also had an idea about creating magic circles! Great minds think alike lol

I really like the art style. The gameplay was very simple, but incredibly addicting

the graphics were what I enjoyed the most, and there is quite a lot of them. Well polished game, congrats on making it in 72 hours

Ohhh I like collectable games) this one is nicely done I wish it be just a little be more challenging or give u more rewards for new monsters, but it's very satisfying as it is. Great job!

It's really fun, the atmosphere is great and so are the graphics! I really enjoyed discovering the different monsters that are summoned, which goes very well with the theme. It's simple and effective, well done!

It's really good concept for game! I like graphics and audio. Good job!

It was fun playing with combinations, but it definitely made me wanting more (a good thing for a jam game!). Seeing the different outcomes of the ingredients is the best part. I loved the animation and sound for changing out the summoning board. The artwork is absolutely stellar, it's the right amount of silly and serious at the same time.

If you expand on this concept with more monsters, enemies for your summons to fight, and specific quests for your monsters to complete, this would be an awesome warlock/wizard/summoner sim that I could see see selling well to casual and hardcore gamers alike. Well done.
