Dance Dance Summoner

Was very fun! I am not good at memorizing the combos so felt a little overwhelmed how fast the enemies kept appearing and the symbols above their head were hard to see sometimes. Wish they were either a different color or somehow more obvious so I didn't feel like I both couldn't put in combos fast enough and couldn't figure out what elements I needed to send out. But overall, felt like vibes of Pizza Tower and was fun to play!

Fun game! you do dance moves to summon certain elements to combat enemies.

I found it a little hard to see which element I would need to summon next, maybe color-coding the elements of the enemies coming at you would be helpful.

The art is great, love the poses the dancer hits. I could see myself getting lost playing this :)

this is so fun and unique. the only thing i would say is give the player a bit more time to see the elements and react

Really fun gameplay and graphics! I'm a big fan of the simple line art graphics, and the gameplay itself felt fun and exciting, especially when you're getting overwhelmed and just almost resort to mashing your keys. Only thing I'd want more out of this game was some more readability, especially with the elements as monsters begin to stack ontop of each other, it becomes especially hard to know how to respond. Overall, great entry!

Great visual execution, the animations and sound are really funny and i like the rock paper scissors ddr inputs. This is a small game slice but a fun one and i def see the potential to expand on this idea! Thought it was really well done!

Very fun and clever idea! It gets pretty hard pretty fast. I love the sounds and poses. Also I'm not sure if its intentional or not but I love that you can make the summoner almost fly off of the screen by inputting directions really quickly.

What a fun idea. I love the artstyle, keeping the colors super simple was an excellent decision, otherwise I can imagine it gets visually cluttered. I also really love the dancing sound effects, got a good giggle out of me. I also quite like the different sized enemies, multiple times I've had a slime sneak up on me because I was too focused on the top of the screen looking at upcoming elements and the keystrokes required. Overall a fun entry, great job!

Really slick art, I do wish there were some deeper rhythm elements with a title like 'Dance Dance Summoner' but it was still fun and I got pretty good at the combos near the end. Great work!!

I had a good time with this! Reminded me of bust a groove in all the best ways :)

I loved the super clean and consistent artstyle. However I feel it a tad difficult, which how much the enemy keep coming at you. It's also hard to make out the elemental weakness of the enemies quickly (I guess you could color-coded them just like the spell board).

Very good game with a fantastic gameplay ! execution is well done, concept is easy to learn and to apply
I do agree that color-coding the types of enemies would have given more readability on the game
However, I had a blast !! well done

@tinker1175 @gold-daniel @jver422 @your @retonymy @vary @drainkid @kilthorne @johnminer @shinyo @nassireh Thank you all for playing and commenting on our game!

Color-coding the elements was definitely something we wanted to add to improve the readability of the game as you can see in the tutorial screens on this page. We started modifying it for the spell board and wanted to do it for the monsters too but got sidetracked by other bugs. We ended up not having enough time to make the modification before the submission deadline.

@manatee-webster We thought it was very funny so we left it in the game!

The concept of summoning monster with dance moves is amazing to me.

This game was pretty fun and squeezed a lot of laughs out of me while I was frantically trying and failing to win this dance-off. The poses and voice barks made it very lively and hilarious. But yeah, as others mentioned it gets very intense very fast. I wish it had less steep increase in difficulty, because even after the fifth attempt I kept forgetting the dance move combos and had to throw glances at the top left of the screen completely losing sight of what's coming at me. It might also help to zoom the camera out a bit so that the player could see upcoming party-poopers a bit more in advance.
But even as it is the game definitely gave me some vivid emotions, so great job on making it!

The graphics are absolutely awesome, I love it! The audio is fitting too, well done!

I can't say much about the gameplay because I don't like button combo games. There were way too many monsters for me causing me to panic and just spam random buttons.

I definitely want to see more games use an art style like this, again, it is great.
