The King's Summon

Hey guys! Couldn't find a link, I'll play it when the game has a link though!

Do I need to review 20 other games before I can start getting reviews? Or should I just review before the review deadline?

You should review constantly ;)
but you will get reviews as they come.

Thank you, I was just unsure how it works :)

- 89.2 on first try and then nowhere close for ages 😭
- Crocs making my heartrate go up near the end 👍

Really nice hand drawn visuals. A good variety in games too, the one for crossing the river messed me up haha. Some sound may serve to make the experience a little less lonely, other than that I can't think of much to nit-pick. The King's Summon is a pretty charming experience overall.

spend too much time drawing the circle, and then stuck at the next level lol

I love the graphics of the game and the nice play on 'summoning'. I like that you made different type of puzzles to go through. I wish my circle drawing skills were better though! Very nice entry, good luck on your future projects!

This is the first game jam game I encountered with multiple minigames. The theme is a rare gem for summoning, the gameplay was simple short and sweet. Nice work!

Nice polish and variety in the puzzles! Makes you wonder what comes next. Great job.

I can see the first challenge being quite the high barrier to entry already, took me quite a while.

I feel like your king and our king should hang out.

That circle-drawing challenge is fiendish, how does the scoring work?

@alpacalypse. You need 90 to move on. The scoring uses the radius and the outer edge of the circle to calculate your score. So it does not matter where on the screen you draw your circle. I did add a difficulty factor to the circle though just to make getting 90 more difficult. It is still technically possible to get a 100 though, but it's not a true percentage anymore.

Genuinely loved the graphics and thoughtfully funny dialogue, also unexpected and good idea to do the minigames thing. Each (well, except the very last) seemed impossible for me to do but I ended up surprised to overcome them, which means the difficulty is just right. Though I imagine many will give up on flowers, and perhaps with circle part some won't realize there is more to the game (I actually thought that is it but kept trying to draw a better one out of pure idleness). Crocs was difficult even though I didn't had issues matching colors, purely for having to click at correct square on time, I can't imagine someone who does have color issues overcoming it but who knows. Excellent job, sir.

You are really great! The game turned out great!

Very neat mind puzzle game with some cool hand drawn artwork. Well done. Thanks for making it. PS. The crocodile level was a bit too hard with the interface chosen. :)

Great work! Really cute and well made. Definitely one of the best interpretations for the theme I've seen so far.

Haha that was cute! I enjoyed the various mini games, as they were funny and not frustrating. I might put the circle drawing challenge at the end so that people don't get frustrated and turn off the game immediately. Of course, that's for less skilled people :wink:. I think all that's missing is sound effects and maybe a bit cleaner UI and/or text/scene transitions. Great job overall!

Visuals is good and the idea with the mine games is fun. In general the difficulty of the puzzles is a bit high. Some music and/or sound effects would have been great. Overall a pretty well made game. Well done.

Beautiful little game! Really liked the interpretaion of the theme! Minigames are also very nice!

Cool idea with nice graphics. A background music/sound effects would have been welcome. Good job !

Love the drawings! The circle drawing minigame was interesting - almost a barrier to moving on, tbh, but has just enough of that "one more try" element to keep you going! Ended up getting stuck at the crocodile crossing, as I just couldn't click fast enough :-P

Music and other audio would definitely add to the game. Overall though, good work!

Great entry! I love these type of lil mini games, especcialy memory tests and logic games. The art was nice, mechanics are cool, my praise to the team. Good job guys!

It's funny I actually had a very similar idea for this jam but I didn't end going in that direction. I like the visuals!

Very nice art. I drew many circles

Good game

At first I didn't think I'd enjoy it that much. But I got hooked into this thing! I love the art and the simple but interesting little mini games. Good job!

Neat art style. Minigames were quite fun. Fighting animations are amazing. :D Good entry!

Nice little game of minigames. Using your own coloured pencil drawings as the game's graphics is simple but such an original idea. The humor was also great! Maybe could have used some sound effects or even some music. Great entry though!

Nice game!
