A tower defense where you don't know the rules of summoning! https://awesson.itch.io/spellbook-shuffle

You wake to find a note left by your wizarding master:

You summon monsters into a lane via a summoning circle with either 2 or 3 ingredients. Every game these "recipes" are randomized, so you'll just have to experiment!

As a studious apprentice, you can take notes of summons which you like by pressing the number keys . These will be saved into the respective slot at the top of the screen. (This is informational only - you will still have to pick up those ingredients and use them to summon that monster again.)

There are a variety of monster types, with different fighting styles. Ranged, tank, etc.

There are also elemental variants of most monsters, which have strengths and weaknesses.
* Fire is strong against, and takes less damage from, Grass
* Grass is strong against, and takes less damage from, Water
* Water is strong against, and takes less damage from, Fire
* The elusive Rainbow summons are strong against everything

Controls:

- You move with WASD
- Press SPACE near an ingredient to pick it up
- Press SPACE near a summoning circle to use your current ingredients to summon a creature.
- Press a number key, 1-5, to save the recipe for the last summon. It will display at the top of the screen in the numbered slot.
