Really creepy and interesting game, I wasn't able to perfect the intersecting curves one but really liked what I played. As a heads up I noticed that if I took too long on a carving the music would stop.

This game absolutely nails the aesthetic! The challenge of the game itself though, isn't very engaging and can be a bit frustrating, I could not get this one for the life of me.

Overall really nice work!

I had a bit of trouble with feedback. I got stuck in the level that looks like a colon and somehow did not advance even though I was pretty happy with my drawing, It would be nice to get a little bit more feedback what went wrong in the drawing.
Also it would be nice to get more of a sense of progress when completing a level. What did I summon? Why should I continue? and things like that.

Nevertheless, the game creates a nice & eery atmosphere with the graphics and the music.

Thanks for the submission!

Really awesome creepy game simple & cool! The graphics, sound and gameplay were awesome and all fit perfectly together. I think I completed it. Got to "Final Call of Reality Demise" but didn't let me go any further. Great job!

Either I didn't understand what to do or it was bugged, but I couldn't manage to complete the first level. I tried reproducing the symbol but always failed.
Nonetheless, the mood, music and theme were all on point. Great job! Wish I could've gone further though.

Love the creepy witch aesthetic! I feel like I cheated by using my stylus lol! I like the amount of friction the game had in drawing the symbols. Like you had to practice a number of times and study the symbol to go to the next round. Love the artwork and music!

The drawing effect was really cool. I would have liked more feedback on what was wrong about my drawings. It was a bit too hard and I didn't know how to improve.

It was a bit hard to evaluate what went wrong when I failed. What part of the drawing "broke" it. Sometimes I felt like my drwaing was ok, but I lost, and then I do the same drawing but more poorly imho, and I win. Can be a bit frustrating. I like the mood and appreciate the tech you used. Good job!
