Sum... Sum... Summoner! by Endorth 2024-04-24T05:59:32Z ♥ 0

Didn't get it. If you click or hit space, you die. If you want THEN click or hit space, you die. If you wait and don't click or hit space, you die. :/

The Cleft by Brik 2024-04-24T05:54:53Z ♥ 0

Hey this one's a lil' underappreciated! I was bummed by the fact that the battles ain't shown, but apart from that, it's a chill cozy game. The arts being weirdly stylish could use bigger sprite size :P

Penguin Rock Collector by Edtg 2024-04-24T05:46:59Z ♥ 0

Cozy, you get to do some two-flippers drifting.

The Travelling Salesman by StefanHolst 2024-04-24T05:42:02Z ♥ 0

Chill market sim, super EZ and casual. Was surprised it's mice-controlled :3

The Dog Whistler by BridgeOnAStick 2024-04-24T05:36:57Z ♥ 0

I was mashing the key for a while, managed to summon a couple dogs, then as I finally "took the scene in", the old guy, all the honking, dogs running, I had quite a laugh. Cozy concept, although the timings are hard to figure out. Based visual repr. 4.5/5 overall, if it wasn't for unknown timings on the signaling. 👍🏻

Cat in a Jar's LD55Summoning by CatInJar 2024-04-24T05:31:20Z ♥ 0

As I've deciphered it, top left is your score followed by your high-score.

Use WASD to consume static blobs of stuff.

Avoid moving blobs of stuff.

That's it.

Gets quite fun if you survive long enough, managed to wake me up proper after a crunchy day. 👍🏻

Arrow Summoning by Sepci0 2024-04-24T05:28:42Z ♥ 0

Hey that's a cozy game! The UI elements were spaced too far to the left & right: would be chill-er if I didn't have to glance left & right to mash thru it. Other than that, very stmooth UX and nice visual repr. Well done!

Some sort of a "downtime" between the actual "runs" (such as narrative bits/upgrades or whatnot) would improve it considerably I think.

I also suggest you go and thank that SOMEONE who told ya to go compo :P I believe compo's the 💪🏻 and you've just proven me right once again hehe

Well done!

Dungeon on Demand by ThePelranthean 2024-04-24T05:23:09Z ♥ 1

Cozy models & anims, although I didn't get the premise :< Walk around, summon guys & kill em to open doors? Kinda weird.

Life of a Summon by someone 2024-04-20T20:55:11Z ♥ 2

**That was weird**

One of the best takes on the "summoning" theme I saw around. Carrying anim was a tad slow. Apart from that, the gameplay was smooth, intuitive and cozy. Deffo a like, would play more.

Summoners Rift by Vilmantas 2024-04-19T22:32:55Z ♥ 1

**thirty seconds until minions spawn**

jokes aside, cozy game. I don't really dig that kind of gameplay, but the rest of it is base: vibe, visuals, audio, controls/ux, *the atmosphere* of being a poor lonely summoner chef locked in his cagie to work... It's art.

Cardmageddon by TheFruckets 2024-04-19T22:26:13Z ♥ 2

That's a level of normal map depth I can get behind. 💪🏻

Cozy concept, although it felt kinda weird getting into the rules: the cards respawn, the cards can be used to cast certain spells, *and your goal is to collect all the diff cards*, that felt kinda mind-boggling to bother with so I just walked around appreciating goblin giants & casting random stuff. Oh cards spinnin' also made me waltz around in circles to read descriptions here and there. :3

Given more design werk (and ALOT less spacious dungeon? Barony-like? please? feels like I'm an ant!) I can see this being sth quite interesting to play. Perhaps even **toss in a deck mechanic** 💥

Great work!

Throw Hands!! by FootLettuce 2024-04-19T22:09:18Z ♥ 1

**Dwarf Fortress adventure mode update certainly looks interesting**

Great visuals! Totally loved the sprites, the god rays (or whatever these are called?), the use of 2.5d, cozy particles flyin' around, plain superb graphics.

Spinning fingers on the ijkl turned it into a battle trance simulator for me, providing a legit hypnotic experience.

The guys above did mention most of my pop-in thoughts on the mechanics already.

About wave 7 is where I started mentally filling-in the kung-fu movie-style punch sounds.

But I'm only writing all this to get to the main point: **HAVING PAUSE in a time-critical-ish-game got me!** For some reason people rarely put it in their games.

9/10, -1 bc no winscreen leaves you all alone bringing dark spec-ops-the-line kinda vibes :^)

GO MAKE GAMES (BUT NOT FOR EVIL KIDS IN THAT AREA) by BAN_KIDS_FROM_GAMES 2024-04-18T16:12:46Z ♥ 1

Nice gameplay. The mood is a little bit on a grim end of the spectrum though. Cozy aesthetics. 10/10 would ban kids again. (Dont upvote this, I'm being silly)

Court Summons by dishwand 2024-04-18T16:10:02Z ♥ 1

Hey you should put some screens up! The game's audio, visuals, gameplay & UX are all dandy, is a cozy chill "find-em", certainly deserves more attention!

Courtroom Blitz by Blueman 2024-04-18T15:47:38Z ♥ 1

This is hilarious! The take on the "summoning" the witnesses, the whole seriousface mana-based card-casting in court, would deffo play more! Add some screens man, it should be more out there!

Rebellious Honking Penguins by hijomo 2024-04-18T15:28:28Z ♥ 1

For some reason, got that weird Midsommer vibe.

Just imagine a farmer person growing some ###-looking fruit to offer to some clearly evil (the pentagram-like-shape) deity.

Eerie!

Cultist's Cookbook by chromaticGray 2024-04-18T14:48:57Z ♥ 1

Looks sounds and plays good, but I couldn't figure it out. Spent some time randomly gathering stuff, use-ing it, gave some of it to the altar, but still zero understanding as to what do.

I might have failed the IQ test, but the vibe & direction's cool regardless.

Evocation by kanity 2024-04-18T14:28:34Z ♥ 1

I knew there had to be at least one other renpy game out there except mine lol.

This game has the thickest & most eerie atmosphere I saw out there so far.

It is **dripping STYLE**, if you can look past the jank caused by time limit, you can drown.

Did the human ending, but the ambience/music hummed is so weirdly, deeply unsettling, I will politely not replay it.

**But I would certainly play a 1.0 of it.** At least once, or, as far as my sanity allows.

Chibble Nibbles by Brogan Ward 2024-04-18T14:13:00Z ♥ 1

Great 2.5D, cool visuals & sound, and most importantly, absolutely loved the fact that it kinda makes you both remember the riff of the spell visually & by ear! 9/10 would play moar

Hell No by bog13 2024-04-18T13:35:56Z ♥ 1

Once I figured it out had a fun time, until I bumped into level 5 which seems unbeatable :< Cozy vibes and all though, tickled me the same way hotline miami 1 did.

Summoner's Duel by Josh Bothun 2024-04-18T13:29:49Z ♥ 1

Deck RNG's being annoying and it lags a little here and there, but overall is based, we had quite a cozy run.

NewCanvas1.png

Would deffo play more, given it would be as easy to set up a match with a frien in a full-ish one. Bonus points for making an mp compo, you rock <3

Enforcement Bureau by wisstopher 2024-04-18T13:10:38Z ♥ 1

Is This The Police? I had that vibe, was quite certain that This Is The Police. Just asking in case It Is The Police. : P Nice exp overall, another chill day at the office.

As much as I enjoy typing games, no amount of typing made the files run

BLOODY SPELLING WARLOCK by evoleo 2024-04-18T13:02:56Z ♥ 0

Cozy, but I dub the above: would be better if we didnt have to move at all and this kind of stuff needs readable fonts! Other than that, great work <3

Helldrivers by torte478 2024-04-17T22:34:50Z ♥ 1

That was cozy. Took a couple minutes to figure out, had a nice gentle nightcall run. The guys never bugged out btw.

Mathemagical Sum-moning Battle! by DaSquid 2024-04-17T22:27:59Z ♥ 1

Based, one of the most innovative entries around. Could be better if the equations were placed closer to the battle taking place. Perhaps as a plain overlay even. That way, you'd see it happen as you mash the keys, as opposed to having to glance there and back.

Umm excuse me but am I the only one who thought the cover & screenshot mirrored that particular website design? :^)

Rythm Ritual by rasblo 2024-04-17T22:13:55Z ♥ 1

Reeeeee tried a few runs, couldn't get past the guitar. Haven't seen any way to tell how close you are to defeat, ie how much misses till gameover. This was a lil infurating too. Other than that, fun times. <3

Conjure Cannonry by Willidev 2024-04-17T22:06:34Z ♥ 0

Cozy stuff. Does feel weird summoning guns, but the tempo, audio and visuals are all nice. :3

Abyssal Ascent by Hadik 2024-04-17T22:02:13Z ♥ 6

I didnt like all the fighting, opted to do sth else instead:

Summon Tycoon by shared 2024-04-17T21:58:05Z ♥ 2

I sometimes dream of a sane mix between dungeon keeper & "longer" playstyle of tycoon games. DF-kinda. Cozy stuff, now you're makin' me go start another fort...

ld55.png

SPELL BOUND ! by Synadiome 2024-04-17T21:49:08Z ♥ 0

Fun stuff, although **THE PIXELATED FONTS** make it infuriating!

It could use some sort of a tune blasting in background.

I think it's the first rhythm game I saw without music or sound. :3

Other than that, had a nice couple runs.:3

thefonts.png

Demon Bringer by mikouaji 2024-04-17T21:41:36Z ♥ 0

Cozy mood & nice vibes, although I dropped it before I could summon a single monster. Just takes 2long to figure out the monsters' ingredients.

Osteomancer by Tinalexanderic 2024-04-17T21:24:32Z ♥ 0

Kinda sad you've had to opt out of graphics, because the visual feedback & general visual vibe (or, direction thereof) is 💪🏻

Vuno: The Adventurer's Log by Mohammed Kapiel 2024-04-17T21:03:10Z ♥ 0

I've only got one question now, is having angels and cannons some sort of a Paradise Lost reference? 🤔 Either way, it's the vibe I had, gonna be waiting on the "conquer hell" expansion. <3

Frenku and his friends. by bl0w 2024-04-16T20:38:27Z ♥ 1

Although, it says LD53, while it should say 55?

I went over 400 skeletons/circle later, didn't bother to screencap.

skeletons.png

It was stupid fun watching em explode into existence, followed by a horribly lagging stream of souls chasing you

To anyone coming here after me, seek the exit first (it literally says "exit") then Create Your Own Carnage.

10/10, would buy 1.0 & play the hell out of it.

Fried my poor ol' lappie so I could only appreciate the screenshots.

Harmony Forest by Argon 2024-04-16T19:10:57Z ♥ 2

You should definitely add some screenshots! Given the artwork quality and the overall warm vibe the game has.

Could be a great chill game given some more love and most importantly, a smoother learning curve. Took a while to figure out *some of it*, but other than that, it's VERY cozy. Something I would certainly play the full/better/bigger version of.

SOUNDS on chords and all too! <3

Dead to Rites by williambsm 2024-04-16T18:59:55Z ♥ 3

Hey that's a cozy game right here!

If fleshed-out, I can see myself playing it 100%. Difficulty is not chill enough for the premise - I could've only last as long as about 1:30, but it was enough to get the brain going as to what this game *could be*.

Great work overall! For some magicka vibes, wrong spells could backfire and all : P
