Summonware by LDJam user 279046
A game where a teenage summoner plays a mini-games on their necronomi-boy while summoning cute creatures in to their room. The game increases in speed as the you progress until it eventually becomes almost too much to handle.
This game was made in 72 hours for Ludum Dare 55.

The art style was perfectly achieved, you definitely know what you're doing.
Great job. Congratulations!
The music and art style is absolutely charming!
The gameplay was easy to understand while still managing to be very exhilarating as things got faster and faster!
Had a real fun time playing this, great work!
Only complaint, I struggled to figure out what to do the first time because there are a lot of things on the screen, but I imagine that's part of the minigame hahaha
My one complaint was that the instructions for each game were pretty unclear - I eventually noticed that there was a window in the upper right explaining what to do, but I missed the snappy summations that WarioWare would generally give - When you're context switching so quickly, having a quick prompt really helps get your brain in gear to understand what it's looking at. Despite how great the graphics were, I had to play several of the games multiple times before realizing what was happening, because they were over too soon!
Overall though, such a cool and highly polished entry! :)
The graphics are absolutely gorgeous, never expected pixelart of this quality for a Jam game tbh.
The music and sound effects are very fitting and sound very cool as well.
The gameplay is fun, like a Wario Ware, although some minigames are way easier that other (the skeleton head one being super easy for example compared to the tentacle bowing one at high speeds).
THE SKELETON HEAD BECOMING SANS SENT ME LAUGHING SO HARD THOUGH
I went up to 14 summon balls thingies, sounds pretty alright to me but idk tbh.
Great game !
My only complaint is that after a certain point the music stops playing, but it's really not a big deal. Nice job!
Epic entry loved!
I miss the time when I played "Warioware". It was very good!
Congratulations
My only complain would be that the theme seemed not to be that much in focus.
It's satisfying to try out this kind of fun project, with the different mini games.
In any case, I'm glad to discover it. Good proposal!
Probably the best game I played so far in the jam. It make me think of WarioWare.
I know the work that there is behind this type of game, and honestly, I'm impressed you could manage to create it just the time of the game jam !
Love it.
