"Idea Catcher - Summoning Tools" is a strategic puzzle-platformer game. In the game, you need to summon various tools to help the protagonist's brain dodge and navigate around various "temptations" in order to capture fragments of idea and safely return it to the starting point — the idea collection ink bottle.
《灵感捕手——召唤工具》是一款结合策略解谜的平台跳跃游戏。在游戏中，你需要召唤各种工具，来协助主角的大脑躲避和绕开各种“诱惑物”去捕捉灵感碎片，并将灵感安全送回到起始点——灵感收集墨水瓶中。
Summon the tools at the right places and times to assist the brain in capturing idea fragments and returning them to the ink bottle.
在适当的地点和时机召唤工具们，协助大脑捕捉灵感碎片并将其放回到墨水瓶中。
+ Click on a tool in the right-hand menu, then select a summoning spot on the right place to summon it!
+ 点击右侧菜单栏中的一个工具，在地图上选一个你觉得不错的召唤地点，成功召唤！
+ Press "space" to make the brain start moving on its own, or you can press the pause button to stop the brain's movement at any time.
+ 按下“空格”后脑子会自己开始前进，也可以按左上角的暂停键随时让脑子暂停行动。
+ While the brain is moving, you can continue to summon any remaining tools at any time.
+ 在脑子前进的过程中，也可以随时继续召唤你所剩下的工具。
+ When the brain encounters terrain that is no more than one cell high, it can jump forward; when it encounters a two-cell height or captures an idea fragment, the brain will turn back.
+ 当脑子遇到不超过一个格子的地形，可以进行跳跃式前进；遇到两个格子或拿到灵感碎片时，脑子会折返。
+ Ultimately, you will help the brain, which has captured the inspiration fragments, return to the starting point and successfully complete the level!
+ 最终你将帮助捕捉到灵感碎片的脑子回到起点，成功通关！

Super-duper thanks, everyone, for loving our game! Your enthusiasm has been a pleasant surprise we never saw coming. Now, if you'll indulge me for a moment of selfishness, I'd love it if you could lend some love to my friends. They're fantastic indie game devs who've seriously had our back. **It's high time we returned the favor**. Thanks a bunch, and mucho love to you all!
===============================================================
🤔Hey everyone, after a grueling 48/72-hour challenge that feels like it's straight out of the gates of hell, are you feeling completely exhausted? Have you ever found yourself stuck in the game development process, so lacking in ideas that it feels like a barren desert, leaving behind a string of 'what ifs' and regrets?
😭Inspiration appears to be just within reach, yet it remains as elusive as summoning a unicorn. The moment we believe we've captured that spark of creativity, it disappears as quickly as ink that fades away.
🤪But don't worry, in our game, you have the power to change the narrative and become the hero.
😇Our protagonist finds himself in a similar situation, scratching his head over a creative block, lost in the depths of an idea drought.
👩💻While his body is seemingly trapped at his desk, his mind embarks on an epic journey. In this realm of boundless imagination, you take on the role of the mastermind, igniting a whirlwind of brainstorms to create a blend of familiar and exotic tools, navigating a path to the brilliance where ideas flourish, and helping our developer break through the barrier.And then,summoning inspirations！
🖱️And all it takes is a simple click of your reliable mouse!
➡️*Just click on what you wanna summon and drop it where you need - smooth and simple!*⬅️
➡️*Just bring those inspiration pieces back to the start, no sweat, super chill!*⬅️
===============================================================
🤔朋友们吶，经历了48/72小时紧张又刺激的地狱历练之后，你现在是否疲惫不堪？在创作游戏的过程中，你是否也经历过灵感枯竭，从而留下过些许遗憾？
😭那些灵感距离我们仿佛只有一步之遥，却又遥不可及。我们想方设法地找寻他们时，他们却又那么轻易地溜走了。
🤪但是好在，你可以在我们的游戏里去尝试改变。
😇我们的主人公也是一个正在苦苦挠头的创作者，他也在经历着找不到灵感的至暗时刻。
👩💻他的肉身没有办法离开他的办公桌，但是他的脑子里正在经历一场大冒险。在这个脑海世界，你可以通过头脑风暴召唤各种熟悉又陌生的道具，规划出一条通往灵感的合理路线，帮助这个可怜的开发者打破瓶颈，然后唤出灵感。
🖱️而这一切仅需要动动你的鼠标！
➡️*点击你想召唤的东西，然后把它放到你需要的位置上，丝滑而简单！*⬅️
➡️*把灵感碎片带回起点，毫无压力，非常轻松！*⬅️
===============================================================
😎But regardless, here's hoping you truly enjoy the competition and fall in love with our game. Fingers crossed for a surge of inspiration and a growing circle of friends~
😎但是无论如何，希望你们都能够真的很享受这次的比赛，也希望你们能够喜欢我们的游戏。祝愿你们从此灵感满满，头发多多~
