Hello fellow screen-rotation bro. I just finished playing and i liked your game, limited screen rotations and one way movement makes for pretty decent puzzle potential.

I do have some pointers but nothing too big.

  • Making the sprite square shaped would've helped approximating where you'll end up after rotating, the line on the current sprite helps but it's still a little unclear.
  • The exit door could've been bigger, feels like you kinda have to snipe the exit otherwise you'll miss it.
  • same goes for the coins and key, they're also pretty small and they could've been bigger. (At the very least the collision box)
  • First level could've forced a low amount of rotates so you're immediately aware of the central mechanic and are forced to use it in a non threatening environment.
  • Coin SFX would sometimes bug out and rapidly play.

Anyway i hope you can use this if you ever decide to revisit the concept.

That is a great name! I had a lot of fun playing this game. It is pretty unforgiving, but this is what makes it fun. The visual presentation is great and once you get a hang of it, it is a lot of fun. Maybe doors could be slightly bigger. On the other hand, that would make the game easier and perhaps that would be missing the point. :)

Realizing that there is a rotation limit, not a time limit, I started playing cautiously. The game was so much fun that I was able to immerse myself in it.

Levels are well designed and the limited rotation moves helped me stay careful about what I did :) Overall a great game!

Very Nice

Fun, addicting game! I liked planning how to solve the level, and then trying to line up the rotation. I thought I'd try it a bit and ended up finishing the whole thing!

Pretty interesting game. It was a bit tough to determine exactly where you would be facing after a rotation, but the movement was really smooth and fun.

I get this one a lot... Probably should have made gaps bigger or some kind of grid in the background. Thanks for playing though!

Very interesting approach to puzzles...

Clever puzzles and 100% fitting. One tweak that I think would make this a bit better, making the doors slightly bigger. Sometimes I felt everything was right and because of the lack of precision, I got punished. Great entry.

Nice game, at first I thought I ran out of time but then clicked to limited rotations. Very clean and well laid out menu and game screen, with clever use if simple dynamic obstacles. The player was reminiscent of a vibrator... which I suppose most rockets can look a bit like (or a bullet maybe?). It felt pick up could have been more forgiving with the limited rotations maybe a short distance drag. Good fun and good use of rotation theme and Kenny assets.

Thank you for the feedback! One thing bugs me though, what kind of games do you usually play that you see a vibrator?

Lol fair call, just what I saw at the time.....

Cool game! nice vibes, little spooky. Took me maybe 5 minutes to beat. First level took me a bit to realize I have limited rotations and can only go up, but after that it was pretty smooth. Didn't realize the coins gave you extra turns until the last two or three levels, was just kinda doing things and rotating without thinking after that first level. Sometimes the screen didn't rotate a clean 90 degrees, and following rotations would be even more weird and the ship wouldn't go straight up, not sure what I did to make this happen, wasn't common.

Really cool game tho!

Thank you for the feedback! I did kinda run out of time and needed to cut the playtesting as well as tutorials short, so naturally these areas are lacking a little bit.
