This was very fitting for the theme. I had a lot of fun playing. The upgraded summons taking longer was a really good design decision, and giving the player to drop power was nice. There were more than a few instances I wish I could cancel a summon when the baddies started to swarm me. Overall, awesome job!

Really awesome style here, the postprocessing elevates it a lot. And I was impressed that you went for both single and multiplayer here, not enough game jam games try PvP in my opinion. Feels like a haunted 70s arcade game. super nice :)

It's pretty fun minion style play. The Q mechanic is pretty cool, because the summoning time gets worse sometimes you want to downgrade.

Fun game! It's fun to summon cool skeletons. You can feel their power)))) Except that when I was defeated, the game froze. No restart or anything like that.

Cool idea. I really like the retro vibe of the game. It's a clever idea to have to balance the power of your minions with the time it takes to summon them and to have to drop your power sometimes to survive. Maybe I missed it, but I feel like there could have been a short explanation of this mechanic though. On my first run I didn't realize that the amount of power I have determines what minions I can summon and I always pressed Q right away. Other than that I had a great time playing.

The name is great. I liked the visuals and the music a lot. I think I got stuck on the big guys, after I summoned them, other than that I had a good time.

Oh, snap! How did you guys pull off this level of awesomeness? It's so mind-blowing, I'm genuinely flabbergasted. Did you seriously whip this up in just 72 hours??? Your game mechanics are super polished, like, 'hold my controller while I master this addiction' level of good. This game is so fire, I can't get enough of it. Kudos on the epic win, I'm totally digging it!

Interesting implementation of the game concept.
I had a Dendy game console as a child, the graphics are very similar.

This gave me robotron flashbacks. I loved the sound and 80's arcade style.

I really like the classic arcade vibes, all your sprites are really neat! The two player version is a great point too :)

The main menu is such a vibe. The music and the unstable retro/arcade filter work so well there. The entire game is full of this arcade machine spirit. I also liked the variety of summon types.
