Crisis Elemental by Gabriel Mendonca

[raw]
made by Gabriel Mendonca for Ludum Dare 55 (JAM)

"In the heart of a quiet town, Inosuke, a young teenager, discovers an extraordinary power—he can summon and control powerful water elementals. One evening, as dusk settles, Inosuke returns home to find his house engulfed in flames with his family trapped inside. With no time to waste, he harnesses his elemental gift, conjuring torrents of water to battle the raging inferno."

This was my first solo project, created for Ludum Dare 55. If you enjoyed the game, please leave a comment. If you didn't enjoy it, I would appreciate your feedback even more...

Fun idea! I have a few comments:
- I have to click on element twice and then point direction. It would be better to be able to do it faster
- It would be great to have a tutorial video for it!

Simple idea. Not sure if there is a second level since I don't seem to be able to complete the first one.
An improvement would be to have the summons selected when the player summons them. It is kind of annoying to click twice to summon and then select the summon

I'd love if the pool would sometimes get dry while another one emerged in another location to ramp up the challenge. Overall a solid and well-rounded entry.
