I like the hamster model lol. I also did get the bug where you couldn't die and could fling the obstacles. It was fun though!

This was actually a lot of fun but definitely needed more in terms of gameplay. I actually got to a point where even when I hit objects I didn't die and I could just send them flying, which was fun but clearly not what was intended. Great concept though!

Very cute intro sequence. The gameplay could use some love. You can just stand to the left of the wheel and never die.

I like the idea. You could spin the wheel faster and faster!
