Summon the Chaos was created as a contest entry for the Chaos contest at GameJolt. While the contest was available for ten days, NR was only available for 2 days and approached it as practice of a game jam entry for future contests and competitions in the indie community. The end result was 30 hours of development before submission. The music provided in the game is Marble Tone Media.

Post-submission received some fine-tuning in spirit of the expectations of the time-constraint of NR for the contest. This resulted in limitations and refinement of art and audio assets. Also, refinement and testing came post-submission with a lot of help from David Maletz. Several gameplay mechanics from the post-submission update were from his suggestions.
