I really like the way you show tutorial, it's super cute and nice
Also i got a small bug in the start - Arakockra shoved me in the terrain, which looks pretty funny :'D
This is amazing! I loved the different abilities, the music and the fairy dialog (cute phrases at the end). I really struggled with the big block of enemies in level 2, but eventually completed. Great work!
It's a very interesting idea, but the game gets very complicated because I can't use WASD to move. There is also very beautiful music and cute creatures🤗
A good visual. Good level ideas, but a little empty. The controls are not particularly convenient and the game seems too complicated. Good job too complicated. Good job
I really, really enjoyed this! The summoning mechanics (though a little fiddly to do) were really good, especially the platform summon and making your companion pew pew! The music was great too!
It was awesome to have you in the stream—thanks for coming!
Lyra is a great example of good game design. Create a companion in the game, and this companion will then change your gameplay.
Congratulations on your submission!
A good entry. My left hand was a bit sore by the end there,
though :P. The enemies' bullets felt a bit unfair at times,
since I'd often find myself in a position where I couldn't
dodge them, even when I react quickly enough. It wasn't
frustrating enough to make me stop playing, though, so I
guess I can't complain :).
Fun mechanics, funny dialog, good use of a diegetic tutorial to teach me the mechanics. The art is great. The checkpoints are nice and forgiving. I kind of wish I could tank a bullet or two though, I definitely got wrecked a few times where I didn't think I could have dodged :D
I had a blast beating the game. I liked the humor and the music, especially the menu theme. Im not a fan of using the arrow keys for movement instead of WASD though. All in all, great job!
Greay entry to the jam! I am so bad at these games hahahaha. I got to the final level, but I simple couldn't get past it :p The music got a bit repetative and like someone else mentioned I think being able to tank some bullets would be nice, but the fact that you die instantly also makes it more challenging, so I don't really mind it.
I like when the character looks up when jumping as well as the beholder who swings a big laser but the enemies are too naughty I wouldn't leave the cave
This was fun! Cool idea with the different summon abilities. Summoning the platforms was especially interesting. I liked the art and music too. The last level was challenging, and dodging the bullets was a bit too difficult to my taste, but it was satisfying to finally get to the end after a bit of struggling :smile: Great work!
Enemy bullets were a bit too punishing without much of a way to deal with them or better air control to dodge them. Humor was great. Overall it was pretty fun.
Was all very neat, liked that the last level required a combination of summons to complete certain obstacles. Movement controls were a bit imprecise, which was not ideal with the quantity and speed of projectiles. But that's a small thing, rest of the game is very cool.
This was really well done! I really enjoyed the music and sound effects. I had a hard time getting used to the controls, but I'm sure with time I would figure it out. Nice work!
really solid little game, my favourite so far this ludum dare. checkpoints are well placed and a good mix of mechanics. my only issue was the controls were a little hard to get used to, with summoning being QWER and space to jump while moving with arrows. nice job!
Lovely pixel art and a compelling set of mechanics! Found it very difficult at points, but was fun enough to keep trying to push through - managed to get to the end eventually!
Love the style, the last level was really hard for me, or more like I needed more patience and thinking LOL! Maybe working in the style of the background could improve more the visuals, the character its really well done! Nevertheless, good job!
Nice game. Summons as a replacement for regular abilities feels preatty neat. Some mechanics would really benefit from some polishing, but a bit of jankiness in the controls is always to be expected in a compo game to be honest.
I really enjoyed the audio. I accidently left the menu music on while opening another tab but I really enjoyed it quite a bit. The game itself is good too, the implementation of the theme is very clear and works quite well with a platformer. Overall a very solid entry!
Good platformer, the summon mechanics together with challenging levels provide a real novel feel to the platforming action. I found the fast bullets rather hard to avoid and would randomly kill me at times. The slow bullets, on the other hand, I could just walk past without killing the enemies.
Last time I trust a tutorial bird. Awesome entry. Everything about this is just lovely. The last level was a little grueling but still fun, and the music is just wonderful. I love how the abilities escalate too, "Here, have some tiny pellets...and also this giant laser shooting beholder".
Nice to see a platformer with some good theme use. I like the added dialogue too. Last challenge was a doozy but I got through it after a while of cursing. I appreciate that checkpoints were generous.
A great platformer that oozes charisma in its tutorial, presented in the form of a character. Good twist on Navi's character. Although sometimes the mechanics are difficult, especially for me who is somewhat clumsy with the keyboard, they are very well integrated and original. The art is fantastic and I see a substantial improvement year after year, not only in the graphics but also in the music. I still haven't been able to get over it, but it won't be for lack of desire.
I like the mood but I think you should make the following changes:
- Put life or range time on the projectiles because it is strange that they shoot at you from off the screen,
- Increase the range of the Q power because it seems that its range is lower than the range of the enemies.
Very good tutorial design. I loved the fairy's humor; I won't pay her any more attention when I play again, haha. Although it's true that it's a bit annoying that enemy projectiles don't disappear after a while. But still, a great entry for the event. A good platformer never fails!

Cool game!
Awesome job making this!

Anyway, it's a good pixel perfect game. Good job!
