LD55 — Summoning

First Summon by MaxguN 2024-04-16T01:14:56Z

Congrats on the submission. The matching star is fun and the object are very well crafted. There could be a feedback when you make an invalid placement

Necro Riot by gold.daniel 2024-04-16T18:44:44Z

Great stuff! Just wish it had any challenge, but as Vampire Survivors, it's really satisfying.

Path of Aratron by nusan 2024-04-18T12:28:23Z

That is an amazing game! My favorite so far

Devotion - A fairytale by daandruff 2024-04-18T21:33:02Z

Amazing atmosphere and art style! Was very engaged at finding what to do next. Truly masterful entry.

Emperor's Gems by Togis 2024-04-16T22:17:25Z

Stunning game!

C.R.T. - Companion Recall Technology by AffinityChris 2024-04-16T17:37:03Z

This is a really cool game! Nice art style, with a lot of personality. I also like the different summons with different abilities, remind me os switching cannons in Metroid (I'm not sure why). I just had trouble with some of the jumps =s The first "staircase" is insanely difficult, at least for me. Anyways, congrats on the submission, great job!

Bean and Brew by RunicPixels 2024-04-17T20:03:55Z

Really nice and chaotic game. I love the graphics, and the physics. The only feedback I have is the running cycle for the girl. While her model is nice, the fact that she doesn't lean forward while walking/running is a bit jarring. Also, maybe an animation when she bumps on a summon? That would be fun! Anyway, great entry! =D

Come By by the4thcircle 2024-04-17T15:59:36Z

The game is very hard, but I still like it! The graphics are hilarious, the animals are cute and the audio matches the action. I believe the controls and AI need adjusments if you want the game to become easier. Would definitely enjoy it even more. Good job!

Gunmancer by Joshua Weggartner 2024-04-17T17:39:12Z

Cool game, I just wish the summoning circle was better explained during gameplay.

Ouija Boy: What's My Name? by VaustXIII 2024-04-16T22:59:08Z

I'm so bad at it! But I liked the atmosphere!

FRIED AWAY by Kyrios 2024-04-18T11:49:02Z

Boy, that intro is AMAZING! I have no idea what I'm doing though. I wish you could start drawing on an invalid space, but the drawing only actually started when you move to a valid space. The way it is right now, if you start drawing on an invalid space there's no use moving the cursor anymore - need to start over. Anyway, great game =D

Sick of Summoning by cheesepencil 2024-04-17T16:04:49Z

Great work! Just needed to tune the hitbox a little better, but its awesome for a couple of hours

Tendinitis The Game (TM). And I love it. I just wish there was a failure state, like dying or running out of resources/time.

Reaver by AdamCYounis 2024-04-18T11:39:02Z

Very fun! The art if beautiful as always. A few bugs: the game screen was bigger than my screen and Shift + RightClick didn't work properly on Firefox. Great entry =D

Dungeon Skater by mackain 2024-04-16T19:07:08Z

Such a nice concept! Simple game, but effective

SUMMonDICE by koro.games 2024-04-17T21:53:31Z

What can I say? I love balatro and I love dice

Dwarven Escape by zKlau 2024-04-18T01:22:24Z

I loved the pico-8 aesthetic. The only feedback would be to speed things up a bit and make more clear how much I need to summon a new worker. Other than that, great submission!

Sumo Honing by Pikario 2024-04-16T21:43:58Z

Nice twist on the theme and the act of playing is very engaging. Sometime though, the game ask you to perform multiple sequences to advance the dialogs, which I think slowed the pace a bit. Very fun and nice look game though, you should be proud.

SUMOning - Power through Angel by Mia_143 2024-04-16T18:20:30Z

This game is just like me and my friends: busting our a*** at work, eating too much and having a good time.

Slumlock the NEET Summoner by mcmuniz 2024-04-16T18:36:31Z

Every day I wake up and wish I don't become this wizard

Summonware by HelperWesley 2024-04-16T21:02:19Z

Amazing warioware inspired game! Loved the art, so expressive =D One of my favorites so far

EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH by jdah 2024-04-16T19:18:34Z

That was so fun! Graphics are 90s like, like those old CDs you found in magazines. I love it.

Butler Beckoned by Brandon McDonald 2024-04-17T19:52:55Z

Very good idea, its fairly well written for a LD entry and the graphics are good. However, I have some pieces of feedback:

* Don't mix pixel art and non-pixel art fonts, its a bit jarring * The text is slow, speed it up a bit * When hitting space in the middle of the text being written, it shouldn't skip the text, instead make it complete on screen * Don't mix mouse interactions and keyboard keys like I for interaction. This makes the player let go of the mouse and use the right hand to find the key. Instead, interact with E. Better still, implement the whole system only with the mouse (walking and interacting)

Other than that, you should be proud! Adventure games are complex and you did a good job!

Summon the Intern by Speedphoenix 2024-04-18T01:11:59Z

Great stuff! The graphics are specially great

Drawn to Summon by Tommy Moua 2024-04-16T21:23:51Z

Cool idea with nice graphics and all. The 3D effects were cool and the UI was simple yet effective. The game itself was brutal though. I'll never get my unicorn! :angry: Very cool game :heart:

Leprechaun's Gold by Stowy 2024-04-16T21:32:22Z

The concept is very unique: summon powers with a directional spell to traverse the level and defeat the enemies. The graphics were nice enough. My problems were 2: the sound and having to translate the WaKoTiPo to the arrow keys in my head. I wish the translation was on screen so I could focus more on the action and less on the translation bureacracy. Good job though!

Baphocat by onqdll 2024-04-18T01:35:17Z

This is probably the most interesting game visually that I came across. Of course, very inspired by cartoons and Cuphead, but beautiful nevertheless. The UI is lacking a bit of polish, but it does its job. The only problem is balance, but polishing this take a lot of trial and error for a game jam. Great work!

Weedwacker by benjiehotwheels 2024-04-16T17:30:55Z

Hey! Great job at the game, really fun! My team also pursued the same idea of Helldivers/DDR command to summon but we ended up with a totally different game, which is amazing to see. The only criticism is that I kept the recipes menu opened the whole time so I could see it, wish it took less of a space. Otherwise, very polished, fun and beautiful game. Congrats!

Summoning Bumper by MatthiasBroske 2024-04-16T18:25:55Z

Interesting mechanics, but ultimately too difficult for me. Nice graphics, specially the UI work! Keep up the good job.

Elemental Assembly by Mmm1008fm 2024-04-16T00:51:15Z

Pretty game, just a bit slow. Maybe you can still fix the build.

Ratastrophe by NaPlz98 2024-04-16T00:59:54Z

Amazing graphic design!

NecroBit by comigor 2024-04-16T01:16:38Z

Thanks @ballen! Unfortunately some PCs are presenting the distracting glitches, probably due to the web export of our game :( The Windows build is probably fine everywhere.

NecroBit by comigor 2024-04-16T01:35:22Z

@ballen the glitches should be fixed now!

NecroBit by comigor 2024-04-21T01:46:25Z

Lil Lads Hit the Notes (Or fall into lava and they don't want that) by Josion 2024-04-16T20:15:25Z

1300ish high score! Very fun game and the graphics were really cute. I just wish both the fire effects on the sides and the cauldrons near the finish line were less distracting. Also, what about keyboard controls? Maybe position the summon with WASD and hit space to summon it. Anyway, those are minor criticisms. Great stuff!

A Hell Of A Hole Garden by MarinePLB 2024-04-16T17:55:58Z

Way too chaotic from the get go, but other than that? Amazing! Really fun to discover how it works, experiment with possibilities, find new cards. Also the art is stunning. Really good.
