Honestly? Favourite game of the jam so far. Love how in-depth this gets and the mixing of items to create new combinations is something right up my alley. Placing down certain objects in a room to unlock another was a great to get making new summons to fulfill that room's count. The art is simple but both amusing and charming that it really adds to the mood. You guys did amazing! I'd love a way to see a collection page at some point.

Really enjoying this one, a lot more depth than immediately apparent. Played it for quite a while!

nice visual style, it's quite addictive to build new combinations for summoning
Cozy little game that is meant to just be relaxing to play and nothing more, really fun concept to go with the theme of the jam, I loved all the sprites for the furniture and everything you could summon! It was such a relaxing experience and one of my favorite games this jam!

Complex, but fun! Fits the theme and the artwork is great. I didn't get all of the summs but I did feel like getting there :).
This was very good! Not gonna lie, I spent about an hour playing it, the music and the progression made it very engaging. I haven't really seen anything like this before, so I was thrilled by the unique crafting mechanic.
The game is begging for some goals to do in-game as many times I felt stuck and didn't know what I had made and what I should aim for. It seemed like there would be more rooms after the plant room, but I couldn't get there. At the end I got about 40 unique summons, but the stuckness and the lack of direction put me off.
Some sort of of book of previous summons with nice flavour text would've added to the expreience so much. Great job, I've rarely played LD games this engaging and time consuming.
Had a very brief moment to try a game and playing this one was a total blast! I'll bookmark it at itch to give it a longer try later.
The art is amazing and I loved the tiny room!
The need to keep right-clicking to see object properties slows the game down a bit, and it took me a while to realize that I had to create new items based on their composition rather than pairing them with each other (I got a lot of duplicates as a result). Not being able to zoom in to see the whole picture after having more rooms makes it hard to appreciate what you've ended up with. Other than that, it's a lot of fun. The freedom to place what you want to summon is excellent.

I love the sprites in a 3D world style, super charming. The sheer amount of stuff you can summon is crazy!

Really cute, though I wish there was a fast sell button for when I'm trying out different recipes haha.

Great aesthetic. It has such charm! :) The gameplay is presented well, and feels intuitive. Good work on the interactions and room setup.
Really fun game! I struggled at first to get new summons but I got immense satisfaction every time I did.
Really fun game! Figuring out the mechanics of what is going on is very satisfying
OMG I spent so much time in it! The game is soooo addictive. I love collectable games, and this one is great! I wish there were more rooms and a way to see all your collection, like, in the almanac. One of the most fav in this jam so far. Congrats!Screenshot_5.png
Very engaging game, clever concept executed extremely well. Minor point on the visual polish, would be nice if the UI elements matched the aesthetic better/was a bit more obvious (e.g. the little Banish button looks a bit wonky and is easy to miss, some hover info would be good while learning).
Love the art, the music, & the unique spin on the theme. It really gave me scribblenauts & even tamogotchi vibes. Great job all round.
This is a charming little game, and a pretty unique concept. I had a lot of fun playing, although it took a little while to figure out how not to keep getting duplicate items. Well done
