Throes of the Javelin by MatterLinx 2024-04-25T22:12:07Z ♥ 3

This game is just absolutely amazing! Incredible work! I'm just in awe

Really like the audio for the carving effect. Really cool idea for pattern recognition, unfortunately I am terrible at drawing straight lines.

Really awesome idea to use your voice to generate and use mana!! It would be really nice if there were keybinds for the buttons. That way you could hold down like q for generate mana and then quickly move to speaking dwarf or wizard. That would maybe help it be still fast paced but a bit more control in the players hands. Also that title screen, it beautiful!

dat orb though!

Arcane Ante by Rob6566 2024-04-17T12:39:02Z ♥ 1

Great work! Definitely Balatro vibes but with your own dope twist!!

SLEEP PARALYSIS by Dinoraz 2024-04-17T12:33:06Z ♥ 1

Great idea, Solid graphics and solid gameplay loop! Well done!

Graphic-All by recursor 2024-04-16T22:38:51Z ♥ 1

Really neat puzzle game with some pretty great mechanics. It felt a bit wierd to only move forward and backwards in the direction you were looking. Not sure if using wasd movement would break puzzles but it would feel a bit better

Summoning Stones by Pe7e 2024-04-16T22:32:44Z ♥ 2

Nice work! Car steering feels kind of wierd and the acceleration/slowing down felt a bit off but graphics were pretty sick

Familial Familiar by ellaris 2024-04-16T22:28:54Z ♥ 1

Nice work! Im really bad at drawing sigils

A Clash of Horns by fabula_rasa 2024-04-16T21:06:31Z ♥ 3

This is so good! Crazy well done and super well polished!

TERRIBLE TILES by oatsbarley 2024-04-16T14:22:59Z ♥ 0

Solid little match games. Definitely felt like i didnt quite understand the score system and what was causing my score to move up. A visual indicator for that would have been nice. Overall well done!

Life As A Lich by VortexB 2024-04-16T14:18:08Z ♥ 1

Great game! Reminds me of a 3d Baba Is You kinda feel. Puzzles were solid and art was really great!

Summoning by a lovely wizzard by LeoAtopos 2024-04-16T14:12:27Z ♥ 1

Love the meta story, keyboard audio was satisfying

Come By by the4thcircle 2024-04-16T14:00:37Z ♥ 1

Took me a bit to understand but super cool and creative!

archmage by OldDog 2024-04-16T13:38:26Z ♥ 1

Incredible work! Simple but super effective, love the summon types and the different enemy types. Also awesome work with the artifacts. Really great gameplay loop. Definitely got to a point where I may have summoned too many guys making the game stutter. Great work overall!

The Demon's Service by Michael Macha 2024-04-16T13:27:49Z ♥ 1

Love the idea! Great voices and effects!

Monster World Domination by RilleP 2024-04-16T13:17:50Z ♥ 1

Solid work! Definitely got destroyed on the first level but you definitely made a dope realtime strategy game

Sick of Summoning by cheesepencil 2024-04-16T13:11:49Z ♥ 1

Dope little game! Neat little upside down space invaders. Great job!

Circle cloner by IndieManiaC 2024-04-16T13:08:11Z ♥ 2

Fun idea! It would be nice if you could control moving side to side on the keyboard instead of adjusting via the slider with your mouse. Circles are really hard... or im just bad lol

Critter Duel by WubbaDuck 2024-04-16T02:10:13Z ♥ 2

Cute game! Snake op!

Mjolnir by SecretJuice 2024-04-16T02:05:39Z ♥ 1

Absolutely incredible voice lines. Definitely fun to pull back the hammer and see your points skyrocket

Duck Spawner by Myse 2024-04-16T01:55:37Z ♥ 1

After summoning about 200 ducks I just learned they follow your cursor! 10/10 would summon duck

Jury Summons - When Duty Calls by Warren Fisher 2024-04-16T01:52:44Z ♥ 1

The music and sounds are absolutely incredible. Really neat idea and super funny. Great work!!

Dark Altar by Adrien Tremblay 2024-04-16T01:45:57Z ♥ 1

Really solid puzzle game!! I loved the idea of the chalice but never seemed to have to use it definitely could see some pretty crazy levels with it

Battle Builder by PerfectSquare 2024-04-16T01:37:07Z ♥ 1

Nice solid little game! Simple and clean, would be cool to have some more upgrades similar to the fire sword!

No one makes the Grand Warlock wait! by Danga 2024-04-15T15:08:38Z ♥ 2

This game kinda slaps! The art style and animations are dope, Music is dope, being able to parry fireballs is dope, being able to Yeet your enemies at other enemies is dope. Only criticism is its a bit unclear how to progress to the next wave by throwing demons into the lava. I'm proud to have beaten the game cause it was a bit hard

Summoning Bridges by mertol 2024-04-15T14:54:05Z ♥ 1

Really neat mechanic! There were alot of moments I would have to build and then look backwards to see if it was in the right direction

Elementary Evocation by SigmoidDev 2024-04-15T14:45:19Z ♥ 1

Really cool game and I like the style of it! I'll be honest I really did my best to win and could not do it. I may just be bad lol.

Feedback: - It was a bit hard to understand how to play even reading the tutorial. Initially getting to a point to place a ghost felt a bit hard as a new player - It would be great to be able to restart from the building army phase. - An indicator for how many upgrade points in the army building phase would be nice - Being able to see your mana without having to select ghost would be nice. - Seems like there are points where my ghosts will just run past enemies and kill themselves. - Clicking the surrender flag seems to FORCE you to surrender or quit the game

Overall awesome work though would love to see some updates on it!

Diemancer by WorldOfMush 2024-04-15T13:58:37Z ♥ 1

Yooo this is clean!! Looks super nice and love the effects! Would have loved a pass on options button, reroll on options and some sort of end state but obviously 48 hours is such a small time! Awesome work though!

Flockin' Demons by Bewelge 2024-04-15T02:52:50Z ♥ 1

Nice work! At some point the audio stopped working on the spawning the summons but besides that pretty impressive for making it in 10 hours!
