Crummonir by lobbienjonsjii

[raw]
made by lobbienjonsjii for Ludum Dare 55 (JAM)

The HTML embed does not work and the fix in the embed guide did not help (Probably out of date?). The game works on Itch.io in the browser. A bullet hell about summoning crystals and gathering Mana.

Controls:

Use the arrow keys to move. Left-Click on an empty tile to summon a crystal that shoots projectiles (They can also hit you, be careful). It costs mana to summon. Collect coins or stand near the Mana wells to restore your mana.

It gets frantic pretty quickly! I took a little while to figure out how to attack back while dodging and it felt like 10 or so units and their projectiles ended up on the other side!

The concept is pretty neat, might be worth having different types of summons if you were going to enhance it for a bit more strategy.

I like the art style a lot, and the gameplay seems to have promise, but I don't really understand the goal of the game, whether its survival, or if i'm suppose to summon crystals to shoot the enemies. I also don't know how to gauge whether i can lay down another crystal.

Game is hard! Took some time for me to get how to survive.
Art is neat. Gameplay is unique in idea of how to manage your mana
Cool submission - have a nice jam!

heeeeeyyyyy i crystal murdered like everyone. Graphics were pretty sweet. It was very hard to focus on dodging and placing objects on the far side at the same time! (i don't know why that's so hard for me)

Cool game, become really hard fast. I think it can be really intersting with more summoning type

A good and simple idea. Of course, at the very beginning I did not understand what kind of control, but later I figured it out. Good job)

A nice and simple idea, very hard too. I had trouble leading the targets on the right with crystals without hitting myself.

It's a bit difficult to play with both the arrow keys and the mouse at the same time, so it would be nice to add WASD controls :D

My highest score was 59. Onteresting mix of mechanics. Bullet hell tower defense kind of thing. I found it very challenging! Especially trying to keep my eyes on both sides to figure out when I needed to dodge and also where I needed to place my towers.

Nice entry!
