Had a lot of fun with this one. Really impressive amount of enemies and upgrades.

Took me a while to realize that the balls where spinning way to fast for me. I imagine this is because of the refresh rate of my display. I you change something incrementally in the _process method, you should multiplay the change (in this case the rotation change) with delta, to make sure it's the same for everyone.

Great entry, congrats!

This was precisely the issue, I have a fixed version that will be uploaded once voting ends, thanks for the feedback , glad you enjoyed the game

This is awesome! Reminds me of Vampire Survivors. Its pretty challenging. I love that you added a cooldown for rotating. I think that was really clever. I have to say the shop wasn't obvious to me. Didn't realize it existed until my second playthrough, really expands the game and gave me a sense of purpose to upgrade myself.

Great job!!

Thank you, props for nailing what the game's inspiration was :)

Could not get rotation to work on the web version (as others have stated) It looks fun and the idea is good. Hopefully, I can get access to a windows laptop before the jam ends and give it more of a fair shot. (need mac build)

I have a version that should work on HTML. Once the jam voting ends i'll be sure to fix it and upload it so everyone can play smoothly, and upload a mac/linux build as well

Love how you implemented "no health bar". I wish there were more lives/ a way to get more lives so I could see more of the game. It can be relatively easy to last a while but death is very sudden.

Walking all the way north before starting the game will show you the way

Cool game, unfortunate that it doesn't work quite right in the HTML version. Still though, it was fun to play for a bit!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed

Neat game - would have like the skeletons to move a bit faster so the player is in more danger and doing the upgrade would make you feel strong - Very good - love the cover art.

Unfortunately I ran into a last minute issue with the HTML version so the ball spins way too fast for some people, and too slow for others. That version is very easy/boring because of this ): the ball moves much slower in the exe which makes the game harder and the upgrades more important.

Thanks for the feedback <3
