Late Night Summoning With The Boys by bbaf
Once upon a night in forest you with you metalhead friends decide to summon a %someone%. Try to remember the spell sequence correctly to pass 9 circles of hell.
Controls:
LMK on bonfire to activate next phase of summoning.
LMK on characters to pick them for summoning ritual or return back to tinitial spot.
Heavily inspired by Summoning (THE band) and Nocturnal Mortum. Long live black metal 🤘

Now I can say it's done(*ish) :smile: so feel free to check it out.
Thanks for brightening my mood, and best of luck!
I thought about phasing a bit, and probably should give some "Fast forward" button or just shorten delay timers between cues. The other thing which unfortunately I didn't have time to do is trimming audio cues. There are a lot of silence at the beginning of each audio phrase.
Alphabet - :laughing: this is not the first feedback I get regarding its duration. The idea was more to divert the player's attention since this cue is not included in the final spell. But feedback is feedback and it's valid. I would even say [a,b,c] spelled separately take more time comparing to the whole [alpahbet] so trimming might fix it partially.
Considering more in-game/ui feedback, a small tutorial along with hints for player regarding the current game phase would be nice. I was thinking about some sort of hint text and arrows like "click bonfire to start" , "pay attention to cues", "pick u'r fighter sequentially" etc.
Not sure about replay button since it gonna make the game a way more easier, but specific features for each singer would be great. Like different cloth color or hairstyle etc.
Once again thanks for the comments and valuable impact for the game!
