Fun game - theme doesn't add much other than the motion, but the actual gameplay loop is really fun and a good challenge. Surprisingly tough - great work on the letter combos so its not too easy but not too hard.

Thanks for playing!

Cool game, pretty unique take on the theme! I would have gone further if it weren’t for motion sickness.

Developer

Oh no! I didn't think of the wheel potentially causing motion sickness. I hope it wasn't too bad. Thanks so much for playing regardless.

I thought spinning wheel would give me the random letter and make me choose the position I can put but this is also fine and fun way building the words, it was fun experience even I was able to put English letters together! 

Game in web window feels a little huge as focusing on the game windows does not allow me to scroll around every button on the screen that is the most yikes you can get from me, loved the rest :) It may fix easily so it is just a small issue many might encounter on first impressions.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Oh thats a cool idea actually maybe for a future iteration. Also the itch.io scaling threw mw for a loop, so I hopped back ont a windows downloadable version.

I spent long enough staring at the spinning wheel now whatever I look at spins in the opposite direction

Haha

This is a really cool idea, quite enjoyable. my main 2 problems is that the UI is not scaled well, i cant really talk cuz im not too good at that myself but most of the buttons are off-screen for me, and my other "complaint" i would have is it heavily revolves around shuffling the letters until you get a word, it seems like sometimes there are no possible words

Developer

Aww thanks for playing. Yea I fought with different resolutions for the Webgl, that one was at 1920 x 1080 so it showed great on my screen but not so much on other screens. I eventually just caved and added a Windows downloadable version. so hopefully it can be seen the way I see it on my side. *fingers crossed*

Really enjoyable while being simple. Also it's not really "Spin to Win" but "Spin is Hazard" I would say

Developer

Thanks for playing!
