A friend sent me this game and I would ABSOLUTELY pay money for this as is. I also wanted to send a small crash report in case its useful (I think I won) 10/10 will continue to play.

looking at the screenshots and trailer it looks so fun, too bad I can't play it as I am not on windows :(

Taxi LooperI love the animations and overall aesthetic of the game. However, the loop theme feels a bit loosely implemented. When you die, it just seems like a regular restart—there’s no clear reward or progression tied to dying, at least not that I noticed (though I might have missed it). Still, great work overall :)

LOGLOOPLove it. Rad game, i could see myself play hours if there was better ways to prevent myself from being "trapped" into game states where i lsot too many dudes (maybe code something that takes into account your power rating or something and not just simply raises the stakes)

Sunken OrbitTho I don't really see the loop, the game is incredibly fun and addicting. I would even buy the full version if there ever will be one!

Sunken OrbitLove the game! But not really loopy lol. I would pay for this and play for hours if it was a released game

Sunken OrbitLove the idea based on a trend! Surprised how many different options there were to buy, enjoyed the growing variety and scaling of fights while the art and sound really worked well for the game. Great entry but not fully convinced by the theme

Planet LooperCertainly answers a few hypothetical questions out there... Also the only place I think it's legal(?!) to say I enjoyed punching that toddler!
Amazing game nonetheless. I saw this in another stream and the charming and wacky aesthetic made me want to play it myself. I'm glad it was well worth it!

Plan-EtI thought the 100 guys vs one gorilla would stay a hypothetical but I'm very happy it didn't. Amazing game. My save game is broken and I cant progress after round 56.

F.O.G. Forgetting Our GodLove this game very much. I think I like this game the most out of all the games in the Jam, I would love to see this game have continued development and move it away from it being such a luck based game the highest i could get after playing for a few hours was level 25. Please lmk if you anyone got higher and how they did it. Ninja and Boxer team up is so good!

One Minute Mechanicfun artstyle and cool idea, loved the animations! i kinda wish i could have a bit more control over the outcome but then again im not a massive fan of idle games.
if you have time, id really appreciate it if you could give me some feedback on my game (/jam/gmtk-2025/rate/3780834) - its my first game jam and im looking to get better!
