Fun little auto clicker. I enjoyed progressing through the different tiers of summons.

This is NOT FAIR. You don't know me, but you somehow obviously know I have a weakness for idlers. And this is a GREAT ONE!

Seriously, I'm having fun (writing this comment while I farm resources). Took me a minute to understand I had to draw the circle until I watched your video.

I can't figure out how to summon Him now. Is it a special combination? Do I need resources!?

EDIT: I summoned Him! And laughed with the ending. A great idler!!

very simple and easy to learn! Using the summoning circle felt very cool

happy birthday, little man 🥳🎉🎈🎊🎈🥳

The birthday bop is seriously great--if that's original, the composer did a killer job

Took me a while to find the rune combination for the next tier of blood harvesting, but once I did it was smooth sailing and fun! Well done

I love the creativity. It's so satisfying to draw circles and see numbers group up :D

At first I didn't quite understood how to play, but it might have been just me beeing dumb hehe. Once I figured it was fun to play. Liked the style a lot, the background music fit well with the mood of the game. Felt really satisfying to fill the circle to summon the creatures. Good job!

Hiding that birthday music behind the victory screen is a crime against humanity. I pray for those that didn't get a chance to hear it, what a bop

The art is great and seems like a lot of fun to make :)

I couldn't figure it out besides what I could replicate from the first 20 sec or so of the tutorial video, but the art is cute and and the sfx are on point. <3

Took me a little bit to figure out, maybe let the "how to play" text stand out a bit more. Very fun and the sound (especially the victory song) are great. Good job!

Took me a while to figure out how to summon, and the meaning of the white/red text, etc. but once I figured it all out and the game got going, it was really engaging, especially once I got the auto-summoner, which I first thought was a bug lol. The build-up to the world-eater was great and a good motivator. Oh and excellent drawings!

It took me a while to grasp what I'm actually doing in the game. It's fun for a short while, but it becomes repetitive. I'm not sure what the ultimate goal is ^^

The sound for this game was very atmospheric and the hand drawn creatures look really good. Only criticism is it didn't scale very well on my screen even with the download however it still really enjoyed trying to figure out all the combinations to summon. Thanks for a great game :)

I really like the summoning mechanics here. Combining the runes to make new summons is a really nice twist for an idle game like this! The audio and mood was really nice too. Great job!
