Cute game! I liked the creatures with their noises and fun names/descriptions. The game was a bit easy, I could see it being more challenging if you didn't see the full picture of the rune or some pieces were filled in already or something.
The creature sounds were the best part of the game. The instant stop to the background music on interact was way funnier to me than it should've been.

I love the creatures, could see them being in the next Pokémon generation! My favorite was the one with sunglasses.
@nick-luciani totally agree that it's too easy!! I wanted to implement a hard mode but just no time. Thanks for playing!
@6knowledge lolol thank you. I had way too much fun sitting there, looking at pictures of the creatures, and then making the weirdest sounds possible with my mouth.
@minjutin thank you!! Most of them were created while half asleep at like 1am, I am so glad you like them. That one's name in the code (before I actually named them) is "coolCarrot"

Interesting game! I like it!
The creature info screens were cool, and the game played really smooth which is great work for a Jam game, the gameplay itself was a bit simplistic as it was just copy the lines, as you mentioned added some difficulty would or hinting at the pattern needed would have added a lot to the gameplay. But as is was a decent little chill experience.

The gameplay mechanics in this game are so intuitive! It's like the controls become an extension of your own instincts. Plus, the art style adds a unique flair that keeps you engaged throughout. Definitely a gem worth exploring!
For one person, this turned out to be a super cool result. Cute, simple, and fun
Wow, a complete game with no bugs!!! The music can however become a bit annoying. I like the art style it fits very well with the game. The concept is cool and it's a fun little jam game. Great job!

Very beautiful game. I like the art!
Interesting puzzle. It might be more challenging if you had to memorize the shape and then arrange it from memory.
Special respect for LOVE framework.

I loved the artwork! Everything is very adorable, and you did a great job of descriptions for some really unique creations. I like the summoning mechanic and think it fits really well with the theme. I like the idea of a hard mode (maybe a timer or something could add some extra challenge as well?). Overall, nice job!

Cute visuals and nice sounds. My only grasp is, that once you have the hang of the dimension in the little preview vs the playing field, it becomes more of a repetitive work than a puzzle. Though I am not sure how I would improve on that myself.
Love the creature descriptions! Everything seems well polished and cohesive. Like many, I wished it was more difficult, but I had fun. Great job!

Cute game, loved the animals and their descriptions. Very unique and felt like the game had a lot of personality. Was very casual and relaxing experience. This type of game would benefit a lot from just having more feedback(sfx, animations, vfx) when clicking and hovering over objects. Overall great work!

Loved the animals designs and descriptions! It's a shame that the music restarts every time you start a puzzle because it gets a bit repetitive. I don't think it's a problem with the song because I've been able to listen to the whole track on some of them and it's quite good. God job!

At first I was surprised there wasn't any challenge or thinking involved, but after some time I found it weirdly relaxing and I felt compelled to finish all the creatures. Cool work!

Cute game and it's fun to summon those creatures. Lovely art, and the puzzles are great.
