While I really enjoyed your math mechanics, and I liked the spawn by points gained by correctly solving equations. It was a very refreshing game mechanic but I wish I had more time to accumulate points and that there was less risk to incorrectly solving equations. None the less, I really enjoyed playing your game and definitely gonna play again tomorrow!
Very innovative concept and graphics was good for compo game ! Nice work !
Nothing will show you that you need to work on your math speed like a math game! Well done. I enjoyed this one. I did find myself getting distracted watching the animations/art of the dudes and forget that I needed to keep crunching out the math :joy:
Cool concept and game! I wish I was better at math

In the first moments of the game, I didn’t understand what to do. And then I really liked the concept.
Mind blown, you single-handedly achieved so much – that's just unreal, my friend!
A unique take on a Math game, had a good time trying to quickly smash through as many questions as I could to spawn the third creature. It did take me a while to realize how to play at first, but once I got the hang of it, the game progressed very quickly. Great Work!

Numpad is the way to go
I have been reminded of the horror of gradeschool and failing my addition and subtraction tables. Honestly, if soemthing like this was in my classroom, I may have grown to like math. I'm impressed by the gameplay being so unique and new. I think that educational games can be quite powerful as a learning tool! Great job and I really enjoyed playing this.
I think this game was really cool and innovative! It was fun and I liked figuring out all the patterns as I was playing it. Getting the answer wrong was a bit rough and there was times that I felt rushed, but it was still a lot of fun. Training my brain to automatically see it as a subtraction problem was interesting and took a bit... Also, while I enjoyed the music, it got super distracting when trying to focus on the math. Overall though, this was an incredible game and I could totally see this as an educational game that kids play to learn and practice.

Oh man this game made me wish my keyboard had a numpad :grinning:. Nice simple mechanic but fun, thanks
Based, one of the most innovative entries around. Could be better if the equations were placed closer to the battle taking place. Perhaps as a plain overlay even. That way, you'd see it happen as you mash the keys, as opposed to having to glance there and back.

Very cool concept! Seems like a fun game to practice quick maths with. Wish the penalty was more forgiving but overall nice work!
Nice game. Having to manage both the maths and the summoning added a nice challenge. I could not decide if summoning the higher cost creatures was worth it and mostly spammed the cheapest.

Easy and I just feel stupid not being able to do simple calculations sometimes hahaha. It was definitely fun and I think the concept is great.

Fun concept, good way to work on your mental arithmetic, glad I could achieve impossible ^^. Would have been fun to mix it up with other arithmetic operations too. Congrats on your fun entry :)
