I went over 400 skeletons/circle later, didn't bother to screencap.

It was stupid fun watching em explode into existence, followed by a horribly lagging stream of souls chasing you

To anyone coming here after me, seek the exit first (it literally says "exit") then Create Your Own Carnage.

10/10, would buy 1.0 & play the hell out of it.

pretty cool game with an interesting upgrade system. some are kind of hard to figure out what they do like the aspect stuff. and it is a lot of information in form of numbers to take in. can be a bit overwhelming.

but overall a really nice game. played a few rounds of it even

Wow that was a lot of fun! It took me a bit to figure out how to play, but once I did I had a blast burning everything to the ground :D

Some of the upgrades were a bit confusing, and I'm still not entirely sure what everything did. Also, I didn't even realize you could kill knights until I saw on the score screen that I killed a few of them.

This is currently one of the most fun compo entries I've played so far, great job!

Wow really impressed me. I was walking around and can't find the exit so I gather so many souls and, it's funny lol

Interesting idea, would be nice to have some kind of tutorial.

Fun game. I think it could have done with some info about which character was which - I wasn't really sure about the choices I was making in the upgrade menu, I ended up rerolling a lot.

Am I right in saying that your summons could not do anything to the enemies? The long range superfast fireball was really annoying - felt like there wasn't really much I could do to counter it. It was fun to create as much chaos as possible though 😈

@ciaranw the enemies are killable, but they got a lot of HP. It wasn't playtested, so the balance could diffidently be off. I was going for the GTA wanted system, where having 5 stars sends the most challenging enemies. TY for playing!
