Ludum Dare 55 was last weekend and the theme was "Summoning." I didn't really plan to compete in the jam but I thought I would try my hand at making something to fit an external idea.
This is still not a game (I didn't stand a chance of getting anything done in 72hrs) but I thought I'd share what I have so far.
There are no enemies yet. Use the arrow keys to move, X to pick a summon and O to summon it for its cost. That's all there is.
I'm not sure how much farther I will continue with it. The game would probably be a survivors-type crossed with diablo-summoner-esque gameplay in which your summons do all the fighting for you, with a little bit borrowed from tower defense. Also, bouncing.
