Summoner Kit Simulator by Francois Dervaux

"Dear Henri Pittar,
On this special day, I send you my greetings from the shadows where I dwell. For your birthday, I have prepared a gift of extraordinary nature: a self-assembling summoning kit, directly sourced from the Japanese School of Sorcery, hoguwātsu (ホグワーツ).
Contained within this parcel are pieces infused with the ancient wisdom of occult masters. Assemble them with focus, murmuring the incantations I have imparted unto you. Once completed, this artifact shall serve as a gateway to uncharted realms, where dark magic holds sway.
May this offering awaken within you an unsuspected occult force, one you shall wield with wisdom. Remember, the shadows reward prudence as much as they punish recklessness.
With respect,
Alban Darkbledor"
The famous dark wizard Alban Darkbledore has offered his favorite a kit to summon the powerful Godzilla. In this game, embody Henri Pittar and overcome the powerful summoning with the help of the assembly instructions and your magical cutting nippers.
Click on a cluster of pieces to bring it to the forefront, then drag and drop the cutting nippers to cut the ties holding the pieces.
Click on a piece to bring it to the forefront, then select another piece to assemble them. If assembly is possible, a circle will appear to indicate where to place the piece.
Follow the instructions in the manual carefully to complete your kit.

This seems like the most unexpected ending=)
But the game is overall very nice and the idea is fun and gives me a nostalgic warhammer effect ^_^
But in the end, I was laughing=) The end is fun, to be honest=)
The most rewarding summoning screen ever! :D I even got some of the French narrator's words
I actually really appreciated the little cute Godzilla and how nice it ended up to be. Would be cool if you can paint it pink to be in full fashion for the final movie :DD
Wow to overall, rated 5 star to all categories *_*
The ending made me laugh! Great music too!
Trés bien!
Good work!
Control wise it might be nice if the cutters were pinned to the bottom of the screen so you could just drag them out, use them on your focused item, and then they'd just snap back to the bottom. Might also be nice if you could drag the plastic frames out of view once you've emptied them (zoom out and throw them into a bin?). The controls were definitely a little touchy but for me it had mostly to do with those two things (failing to select the cutter or accidentally selecting an empty frame).
(FYI, it's a little perf-consuming for my mid-range PC : MS Surface Book 2, 7 years old)
Nice interpretation of the theme too! gg
I had real fun playing it. Love the design of the kaiju !
The interactions were sometimes quite tedious and there's room for improvement on this part, but man, they are still very impressive for a Game Jam project !
I sadly wasn't able to finish my kaiju baby because the game suddenly crashed on my part... Its dark powers were too much to handle on my browser, it seems :c
Thank you for this treasure, good job everyone :muscle:
Other than that, very unique and relaxing gameplay.
The music, warm lighting and colors really set the mood!
Amazing game overall!
