How does your game fit the theme?
The first idea that came to mind was from old shmup and arcade games where you can exit one side of the screen and appear on the other. That simple trick makes the stage feel like a loop, like the world is round. I started by imagining an arcade-style shooting game where you have to dodge your own looping bullets. Somehow at one moment, it shifted into a turn-based survival concept, where the goal was to survive as many turns as possible. Then I realized it worked even better as a level-based puzzle game, one where you solve challenges by exploiting the looping structure of the map and the predictable behavior of enemies.
(Optional) What would you like to be called if GMTK features your game?
