LD55 — Summoning

Patty Panic by thomz12 2024-04-20T15:15:16Z

Awesome game. Polished and fun. I thought I was going to be too stressed out while playing based on the concept but it honestly wasn't stressful at all! Great work.

Turret Queen by leparlon 2024-04-16T17:39:39Z

Quite fun to play! Once all the bullets started flying the audio was quite satisfying. Nice work.

BLOOD WRITES by jelch 2024-04-17T04:40:11Z

Bro that was sick. Nice submission!

Heya. Nice work. Love the animations.

Gacha Panic by Squidly 2024-04-17T21:45:57Z

This was quite fun! Nice submission. You guys clearly put a lot of heart into this game. My only critique is that I wanted to read what the duck was saying but felt like couldn't while needing to run around to collecting more Gacha! This game is going to score so high!

The Wrong Book by adam-gould 2024-04-16T16:05:05Z

that was awesome haha. Favorite game of the jam thus far. The only negative I have is that it took a lil bit of idle gaming before I figured out the pie mechanic. (thank you for allowing the idle repeating mechanics!)

*hums 'heeey you beat the game...'*

Digging the tunes. Nice work!

Fiend-Zone by gord10ahmet 2024-04-16T16:24:55Z

Heya, worked great. I liked how your summons are as much a danger to you as your enemies.

Sick game! The art is great, the music has me jamming. The gameplay has me playing multiple rounds! Keep working on it post-LD

CrateCaster by Whismirk 2024-04-16T18:24:18Z

Cool game. I like the interactions with the environment to solve the presented problems. I had to turn the sound down due to the fireballs but you've got yourself a solid start to a cool platformer. I would also look into the off screen clicks too if you can. I ended up closing the browser xD

Sick of Summoning by cheesepencil 2024-04-17T05:25:53Z

hehehe I like the little demons. Nice work.

Summon' Right Up by Chauwizaud 2024-04-16T02:27:25Z

I am now a master summoner! Nice doodles! Was a fun lil game.

TrollDoom by Milestone Games 2024-04-16T21:59:02Z

I appreciate the Norse theme and I see some of the references you made to that mythos. Nice work. Lots of good stuff here.

Summoning Guidebook by Sariiger 2024-04-18T07:02:27Z

Very cool game! As the others said, the bat collecting wasn't my favorite, but the mechanics are awesome. Great work on this.

Toad-O-Mental by WMute 2024-04-16T18:57:42Z

Full points! Great visuals. Great music. Hard to understand at the verrrryyy beginning but once I figured out I could place the earth toads on the mana wells it was game over. Great job.

Consider some more audio implementation with spell effects and differentiating between enemy summons and ally summons.

Poltergeist for Hire by JudJudson 2024-04-16T17:49:29Z

- Open pickle jar *grabs jar and chucks it* "Check" - Remove cookies *grabs tray and leaves all the cookies in the oven.. then struggles pulling them out one at a time until realizing there's a hidden banana inside the oven* ".. check"

Fun stuff! :P

Incorporeal by rrsmtz 2024-04-16T17:16:12Z

Those squirrels deserved their fate. Nice game. I'm glad there was a skip mechanic for the wait time for day/night. Really kept the game moving.

School is Hell by Gizmo199 2024-04-18T06:15:32Z

Heya! Bigger hit boxes on those imps please! But man are they cute. Nice work.

Entity Summoner by Usenrame 2024-04-16T23:43:37Z

Nice work. Easy to understand and all of the summons made sense so I was never left thinking "That's BS." Thanks for also adding the "Have Fun" portion at the end that lets us see alternate bad endings if we didn't get them before.

Pokoe The Forest Summoner's Day Off by Mavvy 2024-04-16T04:15:47Z

What a cute little cat sprite. You are required to add a pet mechanic.

Morth Obscurum by XOREAXEAX 2024-04-16T03:11:30Z

Man. You had me yelling "No no no.. what the f$%& is that" in discord. Nice work.

⸸ INVERSIO NEGOTIUM ⸸ by pierogo 2024-04-19T05:53:30Z

Yeah I've downloaded this. Imma keep it tucked away on my desktop to keep going back to for a while. XD Loving this submission.

Pest Control by jnur 2024-04-16T16:33:14Z

Heya! I immediately shot myself before leaving the first platform. xD Nice game. I killed the boss by just.. not dropping in the pit. not sure if that was intended or not.

Siela by Gnum_ 2024-04-17T00:07:51Z

Hey look. A well full of.. hearts. *shudders*

Nice atmosphere and starts to some real neat character art. I like the skull shoulder especially. I second the desire for a spooky enemy chasing her around.

Ghostslayer by ThatFirey 2024-04-16T15:28:15Z

Music and graphics are great. Shooting feels great. Some of the enemy bullets go through walls for me and its not terribly clear how to avoid the bullet hell from the fast shooting guys. Still, played it twice! Fun stuff.

Ghostslayer by ThatFirey 2024-04-16T16:07:29Z

@thatfirey Oh! that makes sense. I didn't realize there were multiple types of bullets.

PolyMancer by MarkAis 2024-04-16T17:59:58Z

those crosses threw me for a loop. Couldn't figure out how to destroy them. Kept on trying to draw them crosses and it wasn't taking them down so I just tried to avoid the lasers best I could. Very fun game. Nice job!

PolyMancer by MarkAis 2024-04-16T19:00:14Z

@markais oh my gosh. You can kill the lasers? I would have done so much better! xD

Party Wizard by braktheman 2024-04-18T06:20:55Z

What the heck is a glizzy? xD Bummer dude!

Party Wizard Rules!

Undead Survivor by buloz 2024-04-16T18:43:55Z

I second the hop idea. Those drawings were too fun to not animate! I found that skeleton archers were pretty damn strong. Summoned a bunch of them and just started mowing down those rotten critters. Not sure how my pride likes being taken down by forest creatures XD

Faust by HellHound 2024-04-16T03:17:02Z

Nice work. I like the swap mechanic. It did make me feel like I was constantly needing to double track though. Other than that, it was quite enjoyable.

Bugs VS Bugs by AweSkyBear 2024-04-16T17:23:01Z

I can see a lot of neat strategy opportunities in this game. I was spawning a ton of bugs in the flanks in the hopes that they would smash into the enemy ranks in a delayed wave. Then the red bugs spawned on top of my flanks and I had to adjust accordingly. Nice work.

Pizza Lord : Slice to the beat ! by Mealky 2024-04-16T15:07:07Z

Heya! Looks good. Plays good. Sounds good. The intro was a little tough to understand but once I got through it and it started doing strokes on all 4 beats I got the hang of it. Great job.

I might have played this a couple times >.> Addicting!

Idea Catcher——Summoning Tools by DrgCandle 2024-04-16T14:59:25Z

Very cute! Love the general theme.

The music really added to the game experience BLARG! Cute lil Bergs. Thanks for the submission. You did great.

NECRO RUSH by helviett 2024-04-16T16:18:45Z

Heya! The game ran great and played great. Love the zombie animation and art. Wasnt really sure what the power ups did but it was fun to run around with my own lil hoard of zomboys.

Manku the Magician by PorChor 2024-04-16T19:17:24Z

Haha epic. Big smiles the whole way through. Great job. The bun facial expressions were gold.

($900 buckaroos is a good way to flop XD)

Illegal Summonings by FFenril 2024-04-16T18:12:52Z

Heya! This is my first LD too! Welcome welcome.

The intro was a bit long for me but man this is the beginnings of something really cool. I would love to play more levels. You should def continue working on this project post-LD.

Celestial Summoner by mollusk 2024-04-18T06:31:08Z

I like this game. It definitely has some tricks to it and could use some polish, but the art and music are great, and the gameplay loop is fun. I was trying to do an all spider build but I'm not sure if picking spiders every time boosts their abilities or if I'm just reselecting the spider power. Great work!

Eyes On-Myoji by Cloverplus1697 2024-04-16T18:37:14Z

That cover character art is wonderful. Great job. The game is easy to play but there seemed to be a lack of consequence. Or maybe I am just too good at summoning to not notice :P Have a good one!

Demon Doodles by Storeyware 2024-04-16T19:03:42Z

@niighty-nine There are different audio ques for successful summons and failed summons. If you get a squirrel, you failed that attempt! Your % goes up for painting in the lines and goes down for painting outside of the lines.

Thanks for the kind words, all!

Demon Doodles by Storeyware 2024-04-16T19:42:22Z

@oznarox Modeled after a real guy with a tie! :wink:

Demon Doodles by Storeyware 2024-04-17T18:18:07Z

@inkweeper I struggle on those final circles too and I do digital art! A hint is to focus on the big circles and not so much on the dots. You lose % by coloring outside of the lines but the overall % favors the drawings found within the lines. Let me know if you try again!

The wizard penguin by leozero 2024-04-16T02:06:36Z

Heya! That was really fun. Darndest thing though. I was trying to summon a shield and accidentally called in a 500kg Eagle Strike.
