Very atmospheric, the art and sound set the tone, especially like the flight of balloons to the beat of the heart. A smooth progression of complexity, if you want, as if on such mechanics can be made very interesting puzzles

Awesome game, insane how well the gameplay and the hypnotizing music work together. Played every bit of it.

*ahem*

I'm here to present to you the most elegant game of this Ludum Dare award!

Great entry, short and sweet, excellent visuals that play perfectly together with the audio, and a rare LD puzzle that doesn't get infuriatingly difficult suddenly.. A bit light on the theme, maybe.

Love the atmosphere, the puzzles themselves are not difficult but combined with the lovely art style and audio everything looks very good.

A cool puzzle! Great music and art. I liked the smooth difficulty curve, I would be glad to see it on steam.

Awesome work with atmosphere and colors, it really makes the whole experience great. I mostly wish it was longer, the first 4 levels are of trivial difficulty and more stuff like later levels would be nice. Also the one subtle thing - I feel that the kick in soundtrack is too prominent (makes for a weird, slightly "choppy" feeling for me on headphones), but overall it still sounds really, really good.

This is fantastic! I really appreciate your rhythmic ambiance with a touch of mystery.

The puzzle is very simple, feels like introductory level to a game that could potentially be very challenging and interesting! The presentation is just mesmerising. I adore the eye button and its animation.

Awesome concept and great experience. A bit too easy, could definitely amp up the challenge, but I enjoyed it a lot and finished it. The art and music are both really good.

Great game! Loved atmosphere, art and sound design are terrific!

@lisek-gagatek Thank you for your feedback! Does the kick sound like clipping? Or stuttering / glitching of any sort? The synths being pushed away by every kick is meant as a compressor effect, but I don't know if that's what you mean?

The game is great, loved how moody it is. A more calm meditative approach to the summoning theme. And I had no issues with the sound in my browser on MacOS.

It is definitely one of the most polished and complete games I've encountered in LD55. Visual style and sound design is astonishing. I wish it was not six but sixty rites.
