LD55 — Summoning

Slimeleon by icxon 2024-04-16T09:50:38Z

The drawing mechanic is great! I tried to create something similar in Pico-8 to summon moths but I couldn't work out how to do it in the time XD! The graphics are nice, and the play was really fun, it was quite addictive and I like the way drawing slowed down summoning your helpers, I think someone elses suggestion of remembering the shapes in harder levels is a good one!

This is a really sweet game, I enjoyed swimming around and upgrading my materials, very cozy and explorative.

Summoning of Qasimar by arzi 2024-04-15T08:01:23Z

The summoning mechanic cool, I really like the concept you've comme up with - I enjoyed the challenge of working out the puzzle!

Happy Little Demons by zirconcode 2024-04-23T06:42:03Z

Took me a while to realise how I connect the demons together too - but I like games that let you figure it out, once I grabbed my coffee the game started to click together. I completed all 7 levels - yay! A fun puzzle game idea! It would be great to see more levels, that get super difficult in the future.

Devotion - A fairytale by daandruff 2024-04-15T07:03:24Z

The graphics are fabulous, very cool effects, and the music, creeeeppy, I got stuck with the note too but thank you for the walkthrough!

The Great Witch by lectvs 2024-04-16T17:00:20Z

The pixel art for this game is really lovely, I like the pixel-witch, the gameplay is is a good difficulty level - It was a nice idea to bring stuff back to your minions/creatures, it would have been an extra nice touch to place them where you want - but this is a great game for Compo!!

The Wrong Book by adam-gould 2024-04-15T14:48:46Z

10/10 voice acting seconded!!!! this was absolutely fantastic!

The Klent by sirJupitron 2024-04-15T11:05:08Z

This a a great advetnure, it made me go 'ARGH' a few times XD. Flying was pretty fun, quite retro. I'm glad it saved your progress after picking up the staff!

Flockin' Demons by Bewelge 2024-04-15T08:01:57Z

Agree the atmosphere is great and very on theme, the mechanic to summon your minions to help is fun - especially considering you made it in 10 hours! I'd love to see summoning different types of minions - awesome game.

Come By by the4thcircle 2024-04-16T17:09:23Z

YAY another Pico-8 game. And YOU CAN PET THE DOG!!! 🐶 🐶 ♥️ ♥️ It's trickier than it looks at first! Nice game!

Riftward by Flightless 2024-05-02T20:17:00Z

Hello, super cute game, I enjoyed the feel of leviation and the way it was set up with sequences. I think more sequences and power ups if you develop the game would be great!

Veggie Attack by epb9000 2024-04-15T09:27:22Z

Cute tower defense, would have been awesome to have more levels but I had fun!

Veggie Attack by epb9000 2024-04-16T17:00:38Z

Hey, the difficulty was good, but on the easier side I'd say - which I don't mind, especially for a first level - depends on what your aiming for!

Penta-mania by SirLich 2024-04-16T09:09:53Z

I got really into this! I particularly like turn-based strategies, so I was going to like it but this game is very polished for a gam jam game, especially for compo! Fun gameplay, great art. XD The powerups and enemies were well balanced. The only thing to note is that I did keep accidentally clicking one of the abilities and it would use up the turn :( but that just means I needed to click carefully XD.

Critter Duel by WubbaDuck 2024-04-16T08:49:17Z

Hi, I had some trouble loading the game on Firefox, but worked perfectly on Chrome! The game is very cute, I like the vibe a lot!

Bobblevision by Voidsay 2024-04-15T10:47:48Z

The shader and the voice acting are solid! XD

Pulse of the Ethereal by DzejPi 2024-04-15T08:44:15Z

Ahhhh!!! Intense controls, enjoyed the challenge! I like that you don't have to worry too much about flying around/outside of dodging out the way. Great game!

Island Spirits by SharpLoaded 2024-04-15T07:20:11Z

I love games about nature, ecologies, restoring and healing the world and especially cute games! The art is adorable, and I really like summoning my helpers. The pacing of the game is really good, it speeds up after the beginning XD. It's really satisfying healing the world. Yay.

Cupcake Summoning by mmayans 2024-04-15T08:19:14Z

That was a fun game, I really enjoyed it! Made me want to bake brownies!

Initiation by m0zrat 2024-04-15T08:26:44Z

The graphics were very cool, I like the style of game, it took a bit of time to work out what to do - but then it was really fun! Great game!

Nectar Nexus by Jupiterintardis 2024-04-16T08:09:57Z

Hi I found your game in the search as it seemed very like games I love, reminded me a little of gorogoa/monument valley atmosphere/mood. The artwork is very pretty. I'm really sorry I've got stuck on the second level, with the bee and the flowers - this might be tiredness though! The concept and play is fa-bee-lous though!

Spring Summoner by twist 2024-04-16T21:20:18Z

Thank you for sharing the resources including the gesture training - it's really interesting to see how you did it (I wanted to do something similar but did not know where to start). The mechanic to draw is quite unique, and it was really fast paced. For me personally it faster reactions than I have (but I am slow lol) but could be very cool on the phone/tablet/touch device, even VR! I really loved the illustration style of the game and animation, and I think it was a bit different!

Wand's Way by Inidal Dev 2024-04-19T10:04:12Z

The colour pallete is nice, the gameplay is interesting, it is slow to correct the course but that is part of the strategy. Personally, I feel like there could be more particles! XD, it's a nice game.

666 by Matheus Leite 2024-04-16T06:54:41Z

The games sounds, art, atmosphere are all so good. The comabt is fun but my reaction times are terrible XD, it's a fun loop though!

Eulerian Demons by ghettobastler 2024-04-16T09:50:54Z

The concept is smart, and the game super polished. I liked the timer mechanic, added some panic but it will be interesting to see if you can enhance the mechanics with something else!

mouche(s)? by PieRo_PBeS_studio 2024-04-16T21:14:25Z

YAY Pico-8 game!!!!! Throwing a book at flies is a new one, and quite fun although I'm not sure how I feel about destroying our winged friends XD - j/k! The pixel art is really cute!

Moth Magic by Impalpable 2024-04-15T10:00:49Z

Thank you for playing! So much pollen! It's a pollen-hell! XD

Moth Magic by Impalpable 2024-04-15T15:04:56Z

@epb9000 - very good point about accessibility! Thank you for playing, and the feedback! 🦋🌙

Moth Magic by Impalpable 2024-04-16T21:21:28Z

@piero-pbes-studio yes, finally, thank you - more pollen is what was needed! What we were all thinking. XD

Cauldron Crafters by cibums 2024-04-15T10:11:50Z

This is so cute, I love it! XD

Infernal Refreshments by MissingPixel 2024-04-16T17:36:19Z

The puzzles were really well balanced/thought out, the music is in my head now! A smart game!

Summon Cats by tinyfinn 2024-04-15T19:53:44Z

CATS. ✨✨🐈🐈🐈 The artwork is very lovely, I liked having a little puzzle at the end.

Lexicat - the word wizzard by muhyrla 2024-04-17T07:06:31Z

The game is cute, I like cat on the cloud! Typing games are great, it could be more rapid I think as time goes on but I am a very fast typer :/

The Cherished Boulder by accordaquo 2024-04-16T07:05:48Z

I like the concept, the artwork and the gameplay loop, I also really like the vibe!

The lawyer by RPGWanderer 2024-04-15T20:11:05Z

The concept is quite fun! It reminds me a little, in it's sense of humour style as Say No! More! Which is a fab game!
