The game looks unique. I'd prefer if the out of control rotation would be faster and also it got me very curious and confused how the chests seemed to kill you when you approach them? Good effort!

I thought this was quite nice and really appreciate the effort that has gone in here. More polish would of course always be welcome, I did find the collision of the walls to be buggy but it never got me killed or anything. Good interpretation of the theme! Good job and I'm looking forward to more games by you!

Gun Controlthe game was fun, a little buggy with collision I guess. You did the audio too, Cool.

NeoGenesisfun game once you get into it, the gradual loss of aiming control matches my loss of sanity listening to that music loop lol
congrats on your first game and kudos for doing all the art and sounds yourself

Spinny PlateThis game is very cool, and It is fun doing twin stick controls on a keyboard. If you like this idea, keep working on it! Awesome job submitting a cool game to this jam and I hope you learned a lot of new stuff. When you have time, please check out my game :D

Black Hole DefenseCould be a really interesting little game, but few things make it a bit frustrating. The text is hardly readable due to the weird font. I get that it tries to go for a medieval/fantasy style, but there are probably better fonts with similar styles out there. The collisions are also weird. Walls' collision seem to be bigger than the walls themselves, and the enemy hitboxes could be more generous. There's some missed potential there also. Based on the text I could read, there could have been some cool story. Adding one or two more types of orbs could also spice up the experience. But at the end of the day this is a game jam game, and I couldn't even get as much done as you did in the time frame. Overall: If some technical stuff was better, that would elevate the quality of the game a lot, but I still enjoyed playing it.

Toggle ArenaI'm sorry for the bad drawing of a "keyboard", which isn't realy visable. But when you zoom in with your browser you will see it completely.
Make sure to give it multiple tries. There is more to discover than you think.
I hope you can enjoy my first published and the first fully developed "game" I made. Thanks for playing :)
