Summon customized derpy monsters to do the chores for you: check mail, do the laundry, gather apples, pay taxes, and more!
5-10 minutes of pure fun. Made for the Compo in 48 hours (Ludum Dare 55, theme: "Summoning").
- You are a wizard! :) You are talented and smart!
- You like magic and doing wizardy stuff! It’s fun!
- Also you hate chores and boring stuff! It’s NOT fun :(
- But even wizards need to do boring stuff now and then. So, let’s get to it, I guess… Hmmm… What if?.. Yes, it just might work! Summon some improvised monsters and make them do the work for you!
- Left Mouse Button – grab monster parts to attach them.
- Right/Middle Mouse Button – pan camera.
- Mouse Wheel – zoom camera.
- Q/E and A/D – rotate hovered or grabbed monster parts.
- R – restart level.
- Space/Enter – play/stop the scene.
- F – move camera to the cursor position.
- ~~There's no tutorial in the game yet. I'm planning to add it later.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- ~~There's no any context/story in the game yet. Planning to add it soon as well.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- ~~On the Victory Screen space doesn't open next level, it restarts the current one. Press the button with a mouse.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- ~~There's only 4 levels in the game so far. I planned more, so I'll get to it soon.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- ~~Pants on Level 2 may be hard to pass. It's a known issue because of some physics tradeoffs that I had to do closer to deadline.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- ~~Some text colors are not contrast enough.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- ~~There's no sounds and music. I was planning to add sounds, but didn't have enough time. Probably will add it later.~~ (fixed in post-compo version)
- In some cases some parts may be separate from the main part of a monster. It's not intended, but I didn't find a good fast solution, and it's pretty funny.
- You need to build a monster every try, because they don't save between tries. Saving was an obvious feature, but it didn't fit the scope, so I had to drop it.
Summon strange custom creatures, so they do the chores for you.
- Chore #1: Go to the mailbox to check mail.
- Chore #2: Remove some clothes from the drying rack and bring them to the laundry basket.
- Chore #3: Gather some apples and bring them to the fruit basket.
- Chore #4: Pay taxes: bring bag of coins to the tax den.
- Chore #5: Pick up some trash and take it to the trash bag.
- Chore #6 (Boss): Take out the trash: carry disgusting sticky bag to the dumpster.
- Added intro: now there's a short story slideshow before the first level.
- Added chores' descriptions and tutorial hints.
- Improved first 4 levels: better level design and fine-tuning.
- Added 2 more levels (now there's 6 instead of 4).
- New monster parts: long chunk and bulky chunk.
- New quest items: apple stubs, bones, bag of trash.
- Sounds added (as well as mute/unmute button).
- Reworked final screen after the winning: you can now close the game or play again from the first level.
- Added shortcut for restarting the game from the first level (Crtl+R or Shift+R).
- Added grab animation for grabbers (monster hands).
- Fixed text colors for better readability.
- Added vision fog around the monster.
- Changed the sprite for laundry basket.
- Fixed bug with colliders of quest items (clothes, apples, bag of gold, etc.) and better quest items handling overall.
- Fixed bug that prevented Spacebar from starting the next level on the level completion screen (it restarted the same level instead).
- Adjusted rotation speed of monster parts in edit mode with Q/E and A/D (now it's faster).
- Application icon changed.
