How does your game fit the theme?
This cat's stuck in a loop-de-loop within a time loop within a reincarnation loop within another time loop. (It'll ALL make sense once your (surviving) incarnations have a chat with Time Lord themself)

(Optional) What would you like to be called if GMTK features your game?
SPK:ROLL (pronounced as "spark-roll"!)

An incredibly polished and cool game!

Submitted(+2)

Enjoyed it a lot, any tips on how to recreate the wavy line effect? its super cool!

Developer(+2)

Glad you enjoyed it!! I'm glad you adored the wave effect on it, it actually took a lot of time to get right: I had each impact saved in an array as a dictionary with the origin of collision (from 0 to 359). Every frame, I updated the circle like so: For each impact in the array, it checks the original point plus its age (which I updated with delta every frame) to determine how far the impact travelled, and which two points on the circle are at that distance. I then raised/lowered those two (and all points within a distance of them) with a sin function. It was fun to figure out! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!!

amazing, thanks for sharing!

Super cool and polished game, with so many things included ! (skill tree ???!!!!) . My only concern was the balancing, the game being way too hard even on loop one. I think i reached loop 2 only twice, and it was because i was just jumping from the same spot all the time lol


Very impressive submission gg

glad you appreciated the skill tree!! i VERY MUCH agree that the game's a *little* challenging on the first run, but that's what the second lap of the nine incarnations is for, right?

Welp you could say that haha. I just wasnt expecting a reversed difficulty curve :p congrats again!!

Wowwwww!!! I'm so inspired by everything about this game. The UX, effects, audio, and the physics. It's honestly incredible.

Submitted

So... it's a game about a loop, in the shape of a loop!
Really impressive how it sticks to the theme like this.

The effects are just captivating. The way the edge lines flow is something I really adore.

Great submission, i like how the teaching period went, the game was pretty brutal for me but i enjoyed it.

Really good

Loved it, excellent composition of art, sound and music.

I was able to reach the end. Just spamming jump and not moving (other than aligning at the start to avoid past self) was enough to get there. Probably needs something to make that strategy unworkable.

Nice game name 😉

I like the concept and the title pun! big problem is I suck as this bullet hell/paradise thingie, and couldn't proceed very far TT

Developer (2 edits)

i will admit, the first nine incarnations are supposed to be hard!! I'd be impressed if someone managed to successfully bring every single incarnation to the End of Time on the first run!

Excuse me. BUT WTF IS THIS JUICY AND POLISHED GAME. THIS WAS DONE IN 4 DAYS ??? This blow my mind so muchhhhhhhhh (The only Down side i get was the freeze because of WebGl not supporting such a huge game ?)

Developer

yeah i know!! I've already had to do SO many HTML-specific optimizations but the Windows version just runs MUCH better.

Submitted

Wow, this is such a cool game! It’s so polished and juicy. I love all the little wobble effects in the loop! And the skill tree (loop) on top of it all is really impressive. Nice job!!

Submitted(+1)

The shaders (aside from the lag spikes), the UI, the general game feel, all super polished. That's crazy for a game jam game.

Submitted

Extremely fun, technically impressive, visually stunning, and cats!  This is a complete game!  Ship it!

Submitted

Damn.

Submitted

WOAW what a HUGE entry! It's really cool! You took the theme seriously...! Great art, great audio (love the music, please upload it somewhere) and well... CONGRATS
