Despite the description being super clear, I somehow missed the part about having to turn off the screen for the boss and kept losing... thought this game was impossible at first, haha.\n\nOnce I got the hang of it, I quite liked the flow of needing to rapidly click the close button when the boss was near! I do with that the gameplay moved faster, as it was a lot of idle waiting and no more than one order at a time.

Why am I summoning...? Is my boss the devil? Why doesn't he like me summoning? It's definitely a cool setup, but I just needed a little more info for it to land for me. \n\nI like how dynamic the job requests were, the boss added nice pressure (though I agree with comments about about the spacebar thing), and visuals were solid. Audio was solid too. \n\nOverall I liked it, but would love to see what it could turn into with a little more time in the oven. \n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1074055,"author_name":"BlueDingo","author_uid":"bluedingo","epoch":1714111134,"text":"neat concept and having to hide what you are doing from the boss is a fun mechanic, but honestly the screen is really small for me to read what the text says.

kinda wish the orders would come in quicker overtime, since once you get the hang of which summons are the weak, medium and strong ones are, you can kinda just have a full inventory + another summon
