Very nice animation on the characters! I liked the 2.5D artstyle. At first I had hard time understanding that I can combine the color-vials with other ingredients, but after that the game was a breeze! Nice entry, well done!

The camera viewing angle is interesting, second to the last monster didn't want to get summoned for some reason but enjoyed the game nevetheless, nice work!
This was silly, I enjoyed it quite a bit. great work.

Moving around was cool! Camera moves around in a fun way. Visuals are nice, works together strangely well.
Absolutely love the graphics and the style in this. Took me some time to get to grips with getting the necessary combinations, but after that it was a pretty immersive game to play - well done!

Cool music that supports the fun in the game hahah I would like to be able to collect more monsters and that the hints were not so obvious. I hope that you will finish the post-game version of your game. The character animation is great. This game brought me a good mood.

Nice game! The soundtrack is amazing and it looks pretty stylish. Although the controls are a little strange, I often took the wrong item from nearby shelves. However, thanks to the first comment (about mixing colors) I managed to summon a monster that someone liked :sweat_smile:
Took me a while to get how to combine colors and monster parts. Kept trying to use them on parts or use them inside the circle, but then (mostly by accident) found that table for mixing.
I guess I need to get scared reaction out of the guy? Both scared and smiling give out same exit screen though!
Quite a nice gameplay loop once you get how the game work! I enjoyed summoning demons to scare the guy. Though I am not entirely sure why are we scaring him to solve the case hahaha!
(P)Oops...
Very nice entry! Love the design (a vibe of Don't Starve) and the joyful audio!
I had some difficulties with the rotating camera changing the directions of the player, but the camera is really well done so it doesn't matter so much.
:clap:

Interesting idea of a courtroom setting and monster summoning; I liked summoning a poop when the ingredients were wrong. The art of the monsters is cool, though it does clash a lot with the weirdly happy music. The premise of trying to scare the defendant is neat but after summoning one monster, it seemed like the game ended, so I think adding some more restrictions/conditions on the monster you summon and adding more levels would be cool. Nice job!

I love the play of words, we need more games giving awareness to how many unholy things happen within the confines of a court room! The art is great, it is fun, the music is a bit overly happy for the concept of scaring someone in a court, but I think overall it works well. The 3D angle really added visual flare. And summoning poop in court should become an official meme!
Cool little game. The controles were a bit weird and I'm not a fan of the soundtrack choice, but other than that it was nice. Didn't really understood what to do, I followed the guy's advices but I only managed to summon a big crap. Good job overall!

Clever idea! It takes me a little time to be comfortable with the controls. Lacks some sounds for feedbacks. Reactions in the audience are a little distracting, I assumed they were not relevant.
But it's a fun little game! I like the 2D-3D style.

It took me a little while to really take in and fully appreciate the absurdity of the premise. The gameplay itself is neat but wrapping it in this courtroom setting was a stroke of genius. I also do love me a good mix of 2D and 3D. Honestly, with some tweaks to the gameplay and some added content, you could totally expand on this premise further if you guys wanted to. Make an absurd legal puzzler set in a world with demons and magic.
