Many people love to summon from gachas, but don't want to spend the money to do so. Well now you can get your gacha fix _for free_!

Gacha Summoning starts you off with 20 free summons, as everyone loves those free promotional summons. However, they don't last forever! Thankfully, you can earn gems by winning battles. Discover powerful synergies to make the most overpowered party imaginable! Summon creatures, change up your party, and climb as high as you can!

HOW TO PLAY #

Upon starting the game, you're brought to the main menu. It is highly recommended that you take advantage of your free summons before challenging the first floor. Remember to modify your party so that you actually use your newly summoned creatures. You can head to your party menu at the bottom right. From here, you can adjust your party by selecting a creature and then clicking the desired party slot (A, B, C, or D). Be mindful of your party's order, as some abilities are order-dependent! You can also fuse duplicates, which will increase a creature's base damage (star * rank), along with strengthening their ability (1*s excluded). You do _not_ have to fuse, as it is valid to have multiple of the same creature in the party.

Each battle takes place in one round. Your creatures use their abilities and attack from right to left. Your total damage must exceed the enemy's HP to win the round, and winning all three rounds will advance you to the next floor. Each battle is fought directly after the other, so pay attention to your party's composition to make the most out of successive battles! On the main menu, you can switch the difficulty of either of the first two battles, which will greatly increase their gem rewards. Be careful not to make a fight too difficult that you lose the run!

Elements:
* Fire (combos with Wind)
* Wind (combos with Fire)
* Water (combos with Shock)
* Shock (combos with Water)
* Void

Enemies take half damage from their matching element, and are weak to their combo element, taking double damage. The Void element has no weaknesses or combos. Combos are executed when a creature attacks after another creature. For example, if the first creature attacks with the water element, and the next creature attacks with the shock element, then that shock damage is doubled due to the combo.

The gacha rates are as follows:
* 5*: 1%
* 4*: 10%
* 3*: 19%
* 2*: 30%
* 1*: 40%

CHANGELOG ###


Version 1.0: Original Upload

Version 1.1: Added battle animations for clarity

The Web version is using v1.1. Both versions are functionally the exact same, although it's a bit harder to understand the battle phase in 1.0, thus the added animations. Version 1.0 remains available for download for the purposes of scoring, and the original commit may be used to build v1.0 for other platforms.
