A great, simple game that draws you in the moment you see the start screen. The game feels fluid and the controls work very well with that responsiveness. The artwork and music is sublime; very reminiscent of old Nintendo style games with it's simplicity, yet attention to detail, filling in the gaps with subtle flairs here and there. Very nicely done and looking forward to what else you can create.

This is game is by far my favourite submission in the jam. Everything just works really well. The opening cartridge loading sequence and menu add so much style and flair to the game. And the gameplay while simple feels smooth and fun. I think you really knocked it out of the park.
The game flows perfectly!
It's simple and works very fine!
The emotions are well conveyed, I feel worried when the pentagon is almost full and the pression is palpable!
The difficult progression is well balanced, I get used with the mechanic in the first 2 level and the chaos starts from level 5/6!
I really enjoyed playing!
I think it could easily inlude more layers of difficulty, something like different enemies, some risk taking dynamics or getting punished and rewarded at the same time if the two characters get hit instead of correctly using the chain connection!
Personally I think the connection theme is not really present! I do not feel connected to the second character or else, but the game is really well made and as i said it works perfectly!
Also, the dynamic of getting closer to the center when i keep spinning is effective, i dont know if its designed or emergent, but i appreciated it, gives more control to the player!
Fantastic example of simple, excellent core gameplay. Well done! I don't have anything bad to say, this is just a great game jam game. (Also, Pico-8, respect!)
Very nice addictive game. I after literally playing it for 10 minutes realized that the defending bar is connected with two persons over all well-polished and fun game.
Very nice game! The gameplay is simple but is a nice enjoyable arcade game. The artwork is great too.
Nice looking game which is fun to kill a few minutes with, One problem was that the colliders seem too harsh on the player, otherwise, good job!
Cool gameplay really nice graphics and sounds great work. Good luck!!!
Feels great, has a simple, easy to understand concept…. But has a free win button if you spam X. Oops.
5/3/5
