Fits the theme nicely. I like the voice acting.
The amount of material here is incredible. Like 4? Different songs, and they're all fantastic. The rain sounds are great, too. I felt super powerful the whole time. Maybe it would be better if there was some kind of limit to how much you can summon, perhaps an energy meter that recharged or something? Thanks for the game!
The only thing I'd like to point out is the text in the dialogues. The appearance of the text with central alignment disrupts and doesn't allow reading it until it fully appears. You have to wait until the text is completely visible. So, there's no point in the animation.
Great theme choice though!
The only thing is sometimes I get lost and don't understand what needs to be done, but I think it's pretty good for 3 days! Good luck bro)
Great work!
@lestat Thank you! I'm so happy you had a good time.
@merb1000 I'm so happy you enjoyed our game! In previous Ludum Dares people have said our games were too hard so we tried to tone it back for this one, maybe a little too much lol. Thats a good idea about the summons, maybe certain summons do more damage depending on enemy type. If we continue development that's something we will try. Thank you!
@jason-shapiro Thank you so much, I'm so happy you had fun playing! I really appreciate the comment on how much content there is, we tried to really push our abilities this Ludum Dare! We tried to add a cooldown to the summons, but our spaghetti code got so bad towards the end (we were so tired) we couldn't get it to work, lol.
@breakfastgun Thank you, we really appreciate that :smile:
@gamesplusjames Thank you so much!
@cristian-gurra So happy you had fun! We were really crunching at the end so we had to cut SFX (damn Ludum Dare lol)
@sniffbl4 We're so happy you like the game! Sorry about the dialogue typing, we tried to make it a bit flashier than just text popping up. Maybe making it so the text would align to the right side would fix it.
@crushedsummers Thank you so much! So happy you liked it!
@busisen Thank you so much, it honestly means so much what you said! That's what making games is all about, giving people a good experience!
@pusheeneiro Thank you so much!
@roman-dubrovin Sorry you didn't get the humor, but still, happy you enjoyed it otherwise!
@eonarheim Thank you so much! So happy you liked it!
@beauchama We're so glad you like our game! Thank you so much!
@nohac Thank you so much, we're so happy you like the game. My Mama always said bugs build character.
@kirass Thank you so much!
@kseniya Thank you so much! Sorry you kept getting lost, we should have better indicators for things. Still, we're so happy you enjoyed our game!
@anarchy-associates-and-co Thank you so much, we really appreciate it! So happy you liked it!
@bluedingo We're so happy you found that cool! Thank you so much, so happy you liked it!
The audio is superb u guys nailed it xd
Congrats! Great work!
The music rocks and I have beaten my sister, some criminals and someone who was originally thought to be a homeless man because the voices in my head told me to do so. (Things I never thought I'd put in a sentence tbh)
Nice work!
One bug I found in the main menu - after clicking on the `Controls` button, I couldn't get back to the main menu. Clicking the `Back` button didn't do anything (I don't think its interactable at all), I think it might be because of the big brain sprite shown over the right side of the screen. In fullscreen it works fine, though.
The artstyle is pretty cool! I especially enjoyed the sister flailing her arms wildly to attack things. :D The music is also great, really matches the mood of the game. I got to the end, found the scroll and possibly created the worst superhero ever. I fear what he'll do next time...
