This was amazing! I loved how you treated "seriousness" as theme to follow as well as the spinning. I absolutely loved the way you implemented emotions as forms of buffs and debuffs lol. like confusion making the controls invert? GENIUS!
The laser mechanic tbh reminded me a bit of the laser to gold mechanic in lego games!
Overall, super polished and fun. The foundation's pretty evergreen, so I could see you adding plenty of additional mechanics to make the game feel more "full" and varied in the future.
Great job guys!
