Very wacky and fun, but by the 3rd "20x books" I think I had had enough. Loved flinging around candles though very satisfying

Cool little game, I never guessed I'd see an amazon crossed summoning theme hahaha!! Great Job!

@adam-konig Yeah, we ran out of time to put in the proper progression with the recipes :( One day we'll get better at project management

It's a bit difficult to control.But the creativity is good.

Good game but it could be better if there was a some kind of effect when you place the required item at the door like some fire particles or something like that, over all it was quite fun

Nice game, quite similar to ours. Got stuck at 20x candle, but previous steps went well.

Interesting idea. The gate obstructs the view a bit.

Now that I see this game, I'm amazed that I haven't encountered a single other delivery summoning game this jam.

It's pretty satisfying to throw the items. It took a little while to get a feel for it. Flying books and candles is the way.

It needs some goals or scoring. Some kind of reward for the player. Without them, it becomes a little tedious.

Interesting game with the search/delivery mechanic, it was kind of cool being able to magically move stuff around and send it to the door. Personally I found the first couple of requests kind of fun when throwing the items to the door, but it got a little tedious after a while; maybe if the camera was zoomed out a bit, the wizard moved faster, and the request amounts were smaller/easier to do quickly, this would be a pretty fun game to chill with. Nice job on this!

Like this casual graphic style and looping music, and the ability to scroll the camera field.

The position & iteration noise given to the summoned item really make this game funny

Interesting idea, I didn't have much fun with the gameplay though... not sure if my mouse sensitivity was too low or something, but it was really tedious trying to pick things up. The fixed camera angle was also pretty limiting.

I like this type of game, the fact that it has physics makes it fun! (but the door requests are perhaps a little too time-consuming xd)
