fun game, but kinda hard

Medals didnt work, but the game was really fun

w game

I love this game! Slummoner is very funny and creative. I really love the art style, and combat works well too. I love the play on words with the title slum-moner. I found the combat to be engaging and well. Everything felt balanced, the summons worked and were unique with different usable functions allowing for diverse play styles which I really loved as well. The bosses were very unique and provided to be a fun challenge.

Thank you for this creation it was wildly entertaining and fun to play. Huge shout out to the team and everyone involved in its creation. I am very grateful for all yours hard work and contributions to more joy and laughter in the world.

Peace to all : D

(Come see my play through at GoldsGoldenGaming, youtube link in bio!)

Considering this was only made in 72 hours, this game is quite fun. Artstyle is good but idk wtf is that soundtrack? lol.

I was in the middle of the skunk battle and the game just randomly restarted (I was trying a no-hit run), lovely. During another playthrough, a download pop-up screen appeared in the middle of some other boss battle. The game is almost unplayable when in full screen because of the lag.
