Very imporessive art and overall visual side, good tutorial (even tho I was kinda lost first cuz i didn't see items on left and right but it's just me). Also the music was very moody if that's a word :D I liked it! only less impressive part was the gameplay, not my style but im sure some ppl liked it as well. Good job!

Wow, the graphics and sounds are really great and the game feels complete. Just a small nitpick, it was a bit hard when everything gets blurred to distinguish the objects on the very left and very right. Congrats!

Personally, I'm not a fan of memorizing games, but the implementation is well done! Especially the art style is great! :)

The game was out of the frame on my 768p laptop screen and I couldn't see bottom portion :( other than that, it looked nice!

Great Art and overall realization. Nice!

The blurry shader is a great idea, but the distribution of the blurriness is not balanced, some items are still recognizable, some don’t.

How amazing the graphics are! Congrats also for the mystic ambiance we get in thanks to this game. I quickly fail remembering the things I have to pick tu summon but, hey, that's the challenge :)

I'm too bad at this to finish it, only got 2 spirits right in a row.
Very nice graphics and effects (like the wavy thing in the middle, and the lights on the walls). Nice music as well, I like the shakuhachi.
Could use some additional SFX.

Good game! The graphics and designs are so pretty!!
The tutorial is great, the sounds are very good as well!

I got only two little bugs:
Sometimes I can put an items on the board when I'm not supposed to, and at one moment I find stuck, like nothing happens, the game wasn't frozen, the animation was still running, but the next stage doesn't shows up, so I had to restart the game. Only little bugs, nothing important on the gameplay!

The only bad little thing about gamedesign is that it's too hard in my opinion,
just one mistake and you died! It would may be smoothier with a simple system of HP.

On the overall the game is very awesome, beautiful, and fun to play! Thanks guys for this entry I had fun playing it!

Very pretty art, nice use of screen effect and particles, sadly then was very buggy for me, after the first level when I picked stuff up it alwasy picked up two items, and when I placed and placed both and caused me to die.
