Good job ! The game is fun, maybe add a minimap, or the possibility to turn the camera.

The art is incredible and really stands out. Loved the idea and the character design ! The map is quite big so I was struggling to find enemies for a while. More spawns would be even better ! Great game !

A very beautiful and atmospheric game. It’s a pity that the game loop wasn’t thought out to the end and I didn’t see a goal as such - but it was still very enjoyable to play. Well done.

I really liked the aesthetic of the game; it even inspired me for a future game jam to do something like 2D mixed with 3D, since I always try moving cameras and without 2D assets. Also, the tree borders painted like pencil strokes are nice. I'll check out your other games. It wasn't very clear to me about the summon portal; I managed to create several creatures, but I didn't understand why I had to press 'R' to activate the portal. Still, I killed a few goblins in camps and had fun. I liked the gore aspect

The art is very nice - unique, with some great color work and pleasingly messy lines. The big bad boss is haaard :grin: It was fun to explore and play.

I found it strange that the summons didn't follow me. They stayed in place and just made those tiny jerky movements. I wasn't sure if it's intended, or I encountered a bug.

I like this concept overall. Good work!

The game is beautiful! Controls work fine.
Resource management is a good idea (eat souls or use them to summon help).
The map seems huge.

If feel bad to look for meeple to kill them when they are so peaceful since I do not go on them :D
