Wow that was really fun to play. you balanced it perfectly. I could go for 5 minutes and my healthbar was still green. I thought that I had some some other walls next to the area I was but I couldn't get to it. At first I thought I had to shoot something but when there was automatic summoning I really digged the ' avoid the hord ' game. And I was amazed how well you balanced the speed of the enemies and the risk-reward mechanism to score points. I missed the score on the screen, but I kept my eye on the minutes without death. Thank you for making this. I enjoyed it.
It's a pretty decent clone of vampire survivors. It's impressive that you've done all this in 48 hours.
On the downside, though, the innovation isn't great. The summoning theme fits very well though.
And audio, there's no audio or did I do something wrong? why didn't you opt to remove audio from the ratings?
Very nice! Had fun with this one :)

Pretty nice game! I never really felt threatened by the enemies, maybe some enemies that shoot projectiles could force the player to stay a bit more on their toes, but other than than, pretty solid submission! Good work! ^^

Great entry! Something to speed up the pace would be good but this was fun to play. Nice!
nice survivor game!
Allowing the player to summon slimes is a cool twist to the formula. I just have one suggestion for the pacing though, 5 minutes might be a bit too long for the few mechanics available, so either shorten the win time or add some new ways to diversify the gameplay, but I am aware that this is hard to do in the time span of a jam. Very nicely done though, congrats on your game !

This is a really fun entry! I liked the gameplay a lot and it felt really cool to summon slimes into battle! Congratulations! Untitled.png
You can go wrong with vampire survivors. My only issue is the choice wasn't really a hard choice because the slimes are just better than your base attack.

Nice survivors game - I enjoyed it! The main things that would have improved it (if you'd had more time) would be: audio, some enemies that were a bit more threatening (maybe firing projectiles) and some simple animations. Nice work!
