woah. a dungeon crawler where the main character is a top. now this is a unique game idea. i was having lots of fun spinning. though, why does it reset after two? I think i keep spinning to stay alive, and i did. i made it through many rooms, but the spider is unbeatable, so i always die there. fun game though! would love to see a finished version.

definitely a short but fun platformer! the controls felt nice. it was very addicting collecting the coins. I like how they stayed between levels and you can go back to a level you already completed to collect more. changing the gravity with the wheel was nice, and an excellent use of the theme. very nice game!
oh my god. it was so scary watching like all of the enemies SWARM the area. i figured out the space mechanic and found it very fun to watch the red meter build as I collect coins! though it seemed to just fill with no purpose, maybe if there was something at the end, that would be cool! other than that, great jam submission. reminds me of vampire survivors. nice game. will stay looking for the next one you make.
wow! this was kinda short but thats okay. you got movement on the ball really well. the camera is kinda hard to follow the ball with though. I feel like if you made some more levels for this. it would be a best seller. i made it to the door and completed the game. very fun. can't wait to see your next one!
wow. what a nice little flappy bird-esque video game. it was pretty easy and smooth to the control "spinny bird" idk if it ends, but I kept playing for a few minutes. it was quite fun! maybe a score counter would make it feel just a little more complete. but thats okay it is still fun. and very serious. nice jam game.
i believe I made it to the end of Dead & Spinning. I know maybe like one other game who did the whole "rolling in the grave" idea. this one does it very well! out of all the game jam games. I haven't seen many point and clicks. the emulation of an old PC is also very endearing! found a lot of cool things. the crowbar. toilet that i peed in. but i did not save my friends, the format and layout on itch is also kinda hard to use. it doesn't fit, at least for me. this is a nice submission. you should think about finishing the game! and give it a full story or something, that'd be very cool.
look i understand you think, this isn't a game. but it's playable. that makes it a gamee to me! i bought i a lot of sugar, but my wheel kept increasing its cost. i don't know how but I made it to $-4352.46. I'll take it as a win. this was a fun game! you should join the next jam if there is one even.
don't listen to the haters. this game was very fun! from start to finish, the only problem was the difficulty in movement. and also I feel i made it to the end, but the italian man did not move to the goal. it was fun to watch him roll!! wooooo. very cute spin on the idea. good luck on your next game!
YESSS! I AM THE MIGHTY WARRIOR! KING OF SPINNING TOPS!! WOOOO!I tried very hard, and at the end I did end up winning against 3 of thee! extremely serious. super fun! this is a great example of graphics don't matter. all honesty, the only cool part about the graphics are the tops looking like they came straight out of WINDOWS XP. everything else looks kinda prototype-ish. but oh my god. this is fun. this is a GAME! make it look nice. finish this please. and tell me when. i'll play it and buy a physical copy. 10/10.
doth hath found the way to town square. which immediately ends my game. but I don't want my journey to end there. the pixel art is too beautiful. for each area, tarvern, crypt, cemetary, vortex. I tried to find all endings becauseI found it SO UNIQUE that the spin mech was inside the N, E, S, W movement. that's so cool. continue story games like this. it'd be fun to see where it goes. awesome game!
I actually think it's a really funny idea to have like a roguelike (? idk maybe wrong genre) and just have a button to constantly spin the room around. not only disorienting you, but the enemies. the camera didn't really follow me around, but the weapon was fun to use. very fun game jam game! if you finish this. let me know. if you make another game. also, let me know. have fun on your next game!
very nice and fun to play! i only figured out how to move one spinner, the left one, not the right one. but I managed to get the weight over to the other side! this was pretty cool! have a way of changing spinners and this could be next original nintendo title. seriously. so good. good jam game! it was very fun.
this game does really well at creating unique movement and controls for mouse and keyboard. it is genuinely fun to spin my mouse and enemies(?) and cure them of there sadness and fear. i think the pink bug things following me means i cured them? you don't say this in the control section but i CAN move ewith arrow keys, that's cool. anyway it was fun to try this out. nice attempt in the jam! it's a game in my heart. make more games!! never stop!! woo.
oh my god. so scary!! i was having a nice walk on the road ahead of me, with a valve in my hand. I like the generator mechanic. and oh my god, i didn't even see this volya guy and my is he scary! very loud. very serious. wonderful game jam game! you should finish this one. it seems like it has a good idea.
love how the spinning comes in the form of a tornado. like others have said, very plague, very destructive. very serious. this was a pretty fun play. loved spamming my destructive tornadoes everywhere. i destroyed pretty much everything. region 6 though i think broke on me? i completed it but it was like, still there kinda. otherwise. good game!
oh my wow. the characters designs are so simple, but insanely cute. I feel connected to these characters, because they each have their own personalities, it feels like. putting them on the wheel to fight to the death with math equations (?) is pretty serious. after that point i kinda get lost, but very fun game! the song is so alien. idk if that was the theme you were going for, but the game feels so alien-like. awesome jam game!
wow. I destroyed my own moon many times. but hey, live and learn i guess. speaking of learn, i found out that I must go counter clockwise to keep my moon alive. I destroy many red planets going after my moon. but what i don't get is why the grey spike things always take my health? why? other than that, very fun! I was addicted to the constant spin of my mouse. join another jam sometime! or finish this game and let me know. i'll play it.
woah. how did this rank so low? the art make this feels so charming and the idea is absolutely spectacular !! this is a perfect example of why I am still going through these game jam games. this idea, if given maybe more than 7 days. could be goty winner. i was trying to figure out a roulette idea myself, and i feel this is what my heart was going towards. a unique, simple, not too dark idea for a quick roulette game. the variation in bullets and randomization in your cylinder makes this a very serious, and fun experience. have fun on your next gaming adventure!
okay i didn't understand a thing. what was going on or anything. then i read some reviews and also realized you can move the top. WOAH!!! the mechanics feel pretty solid. i don't know what signaled a win, but I think i won. I made it to another screen of like, balls and another spinning game, but couldn't figure that one out as well. however I think this is still a great submission! if another jam ever opens up. consider making another game.
okay the weapons were very versatile. 1 was gun, 2 was like a wand, and 3 was a rocket launcher, that one was my favorite. the combat was pretty nice, not sure if spin is in the game or not, maybe i didn't get far enough, but I survived pretty long in the little area that was. the music and sounds were pretty nice too. you see something off in the distance and y'know it starts running at you. that gets super stress inducing and very serious feeling. good job on that. awesome prototype. good luck on your next game.
the desert and the low poly theme is nice. spinning the motor is such an interesting idea. i'm not really sure if there is a goal at the end of the road, but it is fun spinning the motor to turn on the car. the car also moves pretty nicely. great start to a game! try finishing it, because i'll totally play a finished copy. good start! can't wait for you're next game. and don't use ai again.
