LD55 — Summoning

Ritual of Ribbit by manabreak 2024-04-15T09:07:24Z

Wow this was a really nice submission! Game fitted the theme really well. Artwork was amazing (Frogs were really cute). and the music has got to be the best I've heard in a submission so far!

Did have one small bug where the text ribbit got stuck on the screen but refreshing the game fixed that.

Great work!

Board to Death by LandoSystems 2024-04-18T06:04:44Z

This is a really awesome submission!

While it was very simple to understand how to play, it is clear that the is a lot of mastery and strategies that can be learned.

The art style and sound design for this game is also very charming!

Great job!

Ring It On by Conrad Etherton 2024-04-15T03:40:21Z

A very well put together game! The game loop was very simple yet addicting to play. I really liked the how I could on in and repeatedly hit the bell if I wanted to be risky or I could stay back and play it safe.

This would definitely be a good game base to expand on if you wanted to put in more time.

Awesome work!

po-jo-pé by kiv 2024-04-15T02:46:17Z

Cool Game! Movement was very unique while still be easy to understand. Splatting little people was fun!

Fruit Punch by hunttis 2024-04-15T09:50:41Z

This was such a well made game to be made in this period of time. The team behind this should be proud :smile:

The Dodge Invoker by pauljs 2024-04-16T00:46:04Z

Awesome game submission!

This game was definitely challenging for me but it was super rewarding each time I would make it to a new checkpoint.

Also thought that the art style and music paired really well together giving the game a very ominous feel.

Good work!

Gander and the Elemental Dungeon by burnedkirby 2024-04-14T22:30:16Z

Very nice game idea! The music had a catchy beat to it and suited the art style well. I did find the parry mechanic unclear and would have liked a bit more of an explanation on how that worked.

It would be interesting to see how things could look if fleshed out more.

Overall good effort!

Demon Burger by JOrbits 2024-04-18T07:41:41Z

Great submission!

Thought the overall gameplay was very unique. Loved the burger summon combinations. Also enjoyed the games overall art style.

Awesome work!

Devotion - A fairytale by daandruff 2024-04-15T22:47:25Z

Wow what an amazing submission!

This game felt incredibly well thought out, from the choice of art style to the sound design. Each step towards increasing devotion made sense and while some took a fair bit of time to figure out, eventually reaching that Ah Hah! moment felt very satisfying!

Great work!

Orbitals by pvg 2024-04-15T01:51:33Z

Great Example of a simple concept done well! Your game has a very strong gameplay loop that is very addicting to play.

If you were to spend more time on the game I would consider making different difficulties that you can play on. Mainly because it might open it up to more people, but it's understandable if that's not the direction you want to take it in.

Overall Amazing work!

Dungeon Summoner by magnusfurcifer 2024-04-15T10:09:39Z

Short but sweet game! Loved the unique 2.5D look. Sounds were simple yet satisfying. Balancing might need to be done so you don't just spam healing cards (making health not a concern). Overall really great work!

Mana Tactics by argensis 2024-04-16T20:12:43Z

Great game submission! very simple to understand yet there is a lot of variety you can do with your strategies! Nice to have a game comp that I can play with friends :) Art style was quite simple but charming.

Overall good work!

Summon Elements by mdotedot 2024-04-15T10:48:33Z

Good submission, also couldn't get single player to work put multiplayer worked fine!

Gameplay was simple to understand. Decent amount of strategy involved making sure that you don't push one element in a way that it blocks off future moves.

Artwork and music was also quite charming. Well done!

Tristram by Rongo Matane 2024-04-18T02:23:25Z

Awesome submission!

Had a very addicting game loop. The music and art style were absolutely charming!

Great work!

Sumo-ning by wolderado 2024-04-17T08:39:24Z

Absolutely awesome submission! Very unique gameplay and good use of the theme. Art style and sound effects worked really well together to create a tense atmosphere.

Loved it, great work!

Dimension Duck by gemcc 2024-04-15T10:21:34Z

Great game submission!

Loved the music and art style.

There was a good amount of variety with upgrades.

Also cool to see another fellow game based around summoning animals :)

Amazing work!

Loitsumaali by vinzBad 2024-04-15T09:28:39Z

Great Submission! While I did find the game quite easy it was still very fun drawing out glyphs and watching my enemies get obliterated.

The game could use some polish with sound design and balancing.

This a great foundation if you wanted to expand it into a full game!

Amazing work!

The Klent by sirJupitron 2024-04-15T03:31:36Z

Overall Great job. Loved the art style and sound design. The level design was a bit confusing.

Reminds me of retro games I used to play as a kid!

Summonundrum by James Greenleaf 2024-04-17T05:46:23Z

Great submission! The gameplay was easy to understand and well explained at the beginning. Was very much hooked on getting combos and the overall fast paced nature the game had.

This clearly had a lot of thought put into it Well Done!

RAT CHEESERS by ick 2024-04-15T03:18:30Z

Overall Great mood and very funny. sound design was simple yet effective implemented. Loved the rats!

Flockin' Demons by Bewelge 2024-04-15T02:56:53Z

Awesome work on this one!

it overall felt very polished with a great atmosphere. some more complexity could be added to the gameplay loop but besides that very solid submission!

Sminer by LightningST 2024-04-15T05:46:17Z

Beautiful game submission! This game really implemented the summoning theme well. The soundtrack and art style worked well together together and were overall pleasing. (Love the digging animation)

My only critic I can think of is maybe adding a bit more gameplay variety for digging as it can be a bit repetitive.

Awesome work!

Summoned Army by dasilvacontin 2024-04-15T08:52:47Z

Solid Submission!

Overall one of the best strategy games I've played so far. The first few levels were quite easy which I liked as it allowed me to get used to the game. Then the levels became more of a challenge requiring some time to solve but it ended up feeling more satisfying when I finally won.

More focus could have been done fleshing out the art but overall great work!

Polarity by Avi 2024-04-17T06:23:19Z

Great submission! A perfect example of taking a simple concept and executing it well. Got addicted to blowing up asteroids and zooming around the map.

Overall awesome work!

SUMMOGON by Nash 2024-04-15T19:40:27Z

Amazing Game submission!

The sound design was very satisfy! The puzzles were quite simple but for a game jam it seems reasonable not to make things to hard for the player.

This game gave me some vibes similar to Inscryption. Would be curious if it had any inspiration on your game.

Overall great work!

Evil Wizard Tower Tycoon by Matthieu Riboulot 2024-04-19T01:13:50Z

Wow this is a really awesome submission!

Great use of the jam's theme. Gameplay was well explained and very addicting. Having characters with their own unique descriptions added a lot of charm to the game. Loved the art and sound design.

Overall a very polished and fun game, well done!

Graveyard Shift: Skeleton Dad Simulator by mrVentures 2024-04-15T06:24:53Z

I never realized I needed a skeleton dad sim but I am so glad it now exists! Very funny game with decent pacing and nice artwork! had a good laugh playing.

Good Night! Sleep with the Demon! by edugpinheiro 2024-04-15T04:38:01Z

Great submission! game was simple to pick up and hard to put down. would love to see more content done for the game!

Duck Invasion by MetaGen 2024-04-15T06:07:14Z

Great work!

This was a simple but very satisfying game to play. There were so many moments when I thought I couldn't get the duck in time only for me to just barely be able to grab a bullet and fire!

Would have loved to see some more variety in gameplay such as more enemies or maybe even some kind of level system but considering the timeframe the final result was very good.

Tao by leorean 2024-04-17T06:11:17Z

What an awesome submission!

A lot of thought was clearly put into the design for each area.

Whether it was to teach something new to the player, challenge their platforming or give them a puzzle to solve, everything had a purpose.

The pacing seemed really fine tuned and while there were a few points I got stuck on for a bit I would eventually have things click and finally overcome them which was super satisfying!

The art and sound design was also incredibly charming and fit well together.

Overall a nicely polished submission, great work!

SoloChanting by JustusPan 2024-04-15T08:27:27Z

Awesome game entry! Did really well at implementing the theme. Loved the artwork (especially the little bobbing of the main character). Sound design could be a bit more fleshed out but considering timeframe it was good.

Overall great work!

Dicey Demons by UkuleleFury 2024-04-17T09:07:34Z

Wow this is a really awesome submission!

This is definitely one of the most fun entries I've played so far. There is a lot of different strategies and choices the player can make.

This means that even though there is randomness in the dice it still felt fair to me and was enjoyable because I got to choose which risks I took.

There is so many different directions you could take your dice builds, do you go for bones or focus on dice rerolls to get lots of dice on the field or try to play strong dice....I could go on and on!

Reminded me super auto pets mixed with a bit of Inscrytpion.

Absolutely loved the 2D/3D art style mix for the game and the sound design was also very charming!

Great work!

12 Vengeful Ghosts by DecadeDecaf 2024-04-15T04:06:49Z

Absolutely outstanding submission!

Everything was so well polished from the soundtrack to the cute little ghost designs ^_^ Definitely one of my favorite submissions so far!

Glyph Tower by YogurtTheHorse 2024-04-18T00:37:47Z

Very great submission!

This is definitely the best jam so far that I've seen using glyphs! Really addictive gameplay. Sound and art design were wonderful too.

Overall awesome work!

Cultists on ICE by Pusheeneiro 2024-04-16T03:04:40Z

This was a really fun submission!

Great example of taking a simple concept and doing it well. There was a good amount of variety in the levels. Soundtrack was an absolute banger. Loved the design of the little cultists.

Overall amazing work!

Critter Duel by WubbaDuck 2024-04-15T03:49:21Z

Very impressive submission!

The artwork looks great and the audio was funny and charming. For some reason the opponent was missing their head.

while more gameplay would be nice, for what was done in the time given it was good!

Salmoning by kuviman 2024-04-17T10:57:49Z

Very funny submission!

Had a good time zooming around town doing wheelies! Thought the art style was cool. Loved the music and satisfying bell ringing.

Overall great work!

Claws and Conundrums by LocksmithArmy 2024-04-15T23:34:58Z

Great submission! Very good use of the theme! Loved the art style you went with. The ominous music really built tension while searching the place.

Its got Phasmophobia vibes which is cool!

Awesome work!

The apprentice by CoOz 2024-04-14T22:15:32Z

Very nice tutorial! Would have loved to see how things would look like if expanded on, but overall really unique concept. Had one bug that I noticed where It wouldn't let me get past the positioning part of the tutorial but seemed to work fine after refreshing.

Great hand art btw!

Summon The Waiter by PromZona 2024-04-17T05:37:28Z

This was a very funny submission! Love the way that you interpreted the theme summoning. found the artwork quite charming and the sounds used for smashing furniture were very satisfying.

Great work!

Sorcerer's Steps by lambbones 2024-04-15T04:48:16Z

Overall good submission. The gameplay was easy to understand but could use some more variety.

(Art style for the hands was neat!)

Elemental Path by Luc-creationallabs 2024-04-16T03:54:05Z

Great game submission! Really enjoyed the gameplay for this one. The game gradually adding new elements into the mix helped to keep things fresh while also not overwhelming them by having to much to learn at the start.

Art style for this game was very nice!

Its a shame there is no audio but overall amazing work!

Dry Season by HolyPerceval 2024-04-16T21:05:50Z

Great submission! A very nice rhythm game with some good beats. also loved the games overall art style. Found it very funny having people get struck by lightning for my mistakes.

Awesome work!

NECRO'EVOKE by Tugaryn 2024-04-16T09:22:12Z

What an awesome game submission! Making such an engaging card game in such a short period of time must have been a challenge. Loved the games art style. The music was very triumphant.

Overall great work!

Sumo Ring by bliny-lynx 2024-04-15T00:40:16Z

This Game looks and sounds amazing! Gameplay was very intuitive. Enjoyed trying to make different builds to see which one is the strongest.

Someway of speeding up matches could be nice as sometimes it can take awhile if its a close fight. would love to see how the game would look with more time!

💀 Soula Cola🥤 by the neon shark 2024-04-15T09:59:41Z

Amazing Submission!

Artwork and sound design was absolutely lovely!

gameplay was quite simple but still managed to be engaging.

SOLUKI!

Phasebound by Kepsert 2024-04-15T05:34:34Z

Wow this is one amazing submission! Everything is incredibly well polished that its hard to pick one game aspect that's my favorite.

The art style is very well thought out. The music is charming. Loved the tunneling mechanic and the controls felt responsive.

Definitely one of the top games I've played so far, and I've been playing through submissions for hours! o_O

Ascension by Gabriel Chan 2024-04-16T06:00:16Z

This is an excellent submission! The artwork for this game is amazing for both the level and menu designs.

Can't forget to mention just how incredible the soundtrack is!

I will say that this is a difficult game with a lot of mastery but seeing myself get further and further into the song was very satisfying!

Overall it was very well polished, Great job!

Life As A Lich by VortexB 2024-04-16T06:37:50Z

Great submission! I was quite lost at first, but once I eventually realized how things worked I was hooked. Found it very hard to pull myself away from the game.

The games art style was amazing! Could use some sound design and a bit more clarity but overall good work!

Summonware by HelperWesley 2024-04-16T02:28:20Z

This is an amazing submission! The music and art style is absolutely charming! The gameplay was easy to understand while still managing to be very exhilarating as things got faster and faster!

Great work!

Summoner's Burger by Chuckiee 2024-04-14T22:48:42Z

Groovy music and a beautiful art style! Gameplay was quite simple but definitely has potential to be expanded.

Found a bug where you are still able to deliver orders after you have been fired but that didn't take away from the game itself (was more like a funny Easter egg).

Great Job!

Démon Puzzle Attack by Roroto Sic 2024-04-19T08:57:51Z

Capture.PNG

Wow this was a really cool submission! super simple to understand but really addicting. music and art style were also very charming.

was a bit confused on why matches of 3 would sometimes not break, not sure if im missing something or bug.

Overall had a lot of fun with this!

Also cool to see a another fellow matching game submission! :)

Démon Puzzle Attack by Roroto Sic 2024-04-19T21:02:06Z

Hi there, had to come back to this addicting entry and try to get top rank again :P PB2.PNG

Also not sure if you plan on doing much more bug fixing, but if u are and don't know this, swapping two blocks right under a falling block can cause this.

bug.PNG

There is also some bug which stops you from being able to swap blocks, mainly noticed it on the far right column but could be a coincidence or some feature i'm not aware of.

Overall these bugs haven't stopped me from having a lot of fun but just thought I would let you know <3

Démon Puzzle Attack by Roroto Sic 2024-05-02T20:07:43Z

With voting coming to an end I thought I would post my best PB! PB3.PNG

Loved this game, hope you continue to make awesome projects in the future :D

Démon Puzzle Attack by Roroto Sic 2024-05-03T21:21:54Z

Thought I would have a go trying to cross the one hour mark before voting ends :P Screenshot 2024-05-04 091818.png Good luck for voting today!

Summoned at 2 by WeeFairyFabi 2024-04-16T09:13:42Z

This was a really fun submission!

This game had me hooked on its gameplay, very simple to understand yet still managed to be addicting. Enjoyed trying out the different combinations of elements. the balancing for this game seemed great, I never felt bored by a lack of enemies or that the game was being unfair with too many enemies.

The art style and music also were incredible and paired really well together.

Overall a really polished game well done!

Well done!

Party Wizard by braktheman 2024-04-16T20:26:04Z

Very funny game! Things start of slow which I think is good as it allows you to get used to playing. It then can become very intense when things begin to speed up. I found it quite hard to tell the difference between burger and cheeseburger when the speed got really fast.

Overall enjoyed this one a lot, good work!

Furriend: A Paw-some Summoning Odyssey by pralista 2024-04-18T06:41:31Z

Loved the core mechanic of switching between characters! Lilith and Agness feel very unique to each other which makes switching between them very fun!

Everything felt well explained through the wooden signs and overall was well paced. Music was very peaceful and charming, really helped went well with the games overall art style.

A bit of polish is needed to fix up some bugs but overall well done!

The puzzles for this game were incredibly well thought out, they managed to be challenging while still giving the player multiple solutions to choose from. Had quite a few moments were I was stuck for a bit before finally having a light bulb moment and beat the stage which was really satisfying.

This is my first Ludum Dare Game Jam and second Game Jam done overall (if you count my last jam where my pc corrupted the project at the very end O_O) Feedback very much appreciated!

Super Pal Summoner! by Meepster 2024-04-26T08:53:29Z

Such a creative entry! Really loved the main game loop. The artwork was very charming and the music helped to create a Zen like experience. Great work!

Duck Spawner by Myse 2024-04-17T01:28:57Z

Great submission u have here! Loved the cute duck designs and chiptune like music.

I can relate to things not going as planned in game jams. Had my last jam entry get completely corrupted by my pc before submission so I had nothing to show for it :/ The fact that you decided to not give up and still release something is awesome (Even if it wasn't your original plan).

Good work!

Summon Cats by tinyfinn 2024-04-15T06:50:11Z

This game is adorable! Good to see another fellow game using cats :D Beautiful art and sound design. Only complaint is there could more cats!

Great work!

LuciFare by Aaron Hart 2024-04-15T20:38:45Z

This is a very cool Submission! Really loved how the game utilized the summoning theme. The art style was great!

Game reminded me a bit of enviro bear with its player view!

Gameplay was easy to understand. There is a level of mastery to this game that I quite liked. At first I was quite slow delivering people but eventually I got into a flow.

sound design could use some work but overall for a solo jam this was a very fun and overall great experience!

The lawyer by RPGWanderer 2024-04-15T02:22:36Z

Very funny game! Overall felt very well polished in all areas. felt a bit short in Play-length but there is only so much you can do for a game jam.

Great job!

Ratastrophe by NaPlz98 2024-04-16T20:50:23Z

Loved this submission! Great example of taking a simple concept and executing it well. had a very addicting nature to it and a lot of funny moments as I had to rush to summon Chonky as a horde of rats were chasing me down. Art style and music were also super charming!

Jury Summons - When Duty Calls by Warren Fisher 2024-04-15T04:29:57Z

Really solid submission! Very unique idea and seemed well polished. was nervous near the end to see if I picked right since there was one I was on the fence about but everything worked out :)

Endless Engagement by OobOob 2024-04-15T11:17:24Z

Good submission! Thought that it suited the theme pretty well. was very fun creating a little army to take over the world with!

some improvements could be made on the artwork but considering the time limits it could have been hard to do much more.

Great work!

Sorcerer by asatrain 2024-04-15T02:35:49Z

Great job on this project! Very unique idea. could use some work with sound / art but the gameplay itself was quite enjoyable. Would love to see more levels if you develop the game further.

Good luck!

Summoning by TheMotleyBrit 2024-04-15T02:08:45Z

Overall a pretty simple but fun game.

Loved the overall pacing. Seeing my character slowly getting stronger as the game went on was satisfying. The sound design was also very good! Some polish could be used on the graphics but considering the timeframe its pretty reasonable.

Good job!

The wizard penguin by leozero 2024-04-16T00:01:16Z

Wow this is a really awesome jam!

The gameplay was super simple to understand yet so addicting! I very quickly got into a flow state casting spell after spell.

Both the art style and music were so charming!

Some more variety in combinations overtime could be nice touch but overall amazing work!

My first Ludum Dare submission by Ryuno-Ki 2024-04-15T03:23:51Z

A simple but sweet game. Had fun playing multiple different routes and seeing the possible options. Great job on your first sub!
