I like the song! Pretty chill game, love spamming the buy button to get more. The progression/money amount is well-done! Would love to see what would happen if like a ball bounced around the screen

Submitted

It's mesmerizing watching the little spinners go - I'd love to have had an option to zoom out and see them all! I also know it's an idle game, but it would've been great to have an additional thing to do other than wait for the money to get high enough to buy another spinner.

Submitted

It's very basic, but alright. I think the thing that matters most in incrementals is their presentation, so maybe next time when you have enough time, you'll make the art a bit cooler, although the spinners are still relatively satisfying to watch as the number goes up. The music is great though, and I don't see any credits anywhere, so I assume you made it. I got the gear.

ts the typa game you'd find on roblox with 6 or 7 active players that you'd max out in an hour

jokes aside, the free roam camera is quite a nice take on an idle game, i'd love to see that being explored more! although i'd appreciate if the music was a little less basic since it does get a bit tiring hearing it loop in the background

Developer

100 robux for purple spinnies?

honestly idk what to do with the free roam camera. i feel like i would need a lot of art for the player to look at and i'm not the best at it. i can definitely improve the music and i'm looking to have a more solid style to my game.

Reminds me of something I'd play on my Chromebook in class in middle school

Developer(+1)

Neat! I have been inspired by the vibe of Flash games recently. I was too studious in school though lol.

I'm in college and still play games in class sometimes

Submitted

Pretty fun! Loved the music ngl

Developer

Thanks for playing! :)

Submitted

Cute, simple idle game (I love idle games!). I wish I could zoom out to see the whole screen, even in its current unfinished state. Hope you continue tinkering with it!

Developer

Wow thanks! I'll definitely add a zoom function for the camera. 

Submitted

cute!! would be nice to have some more options

Developer

Thanks! I plan to have more spinnies in the full version.

Submitted

Surprisingly engaging for a pretty simple game. I played to RESET twice ("for some reason" haha). The music was a vibe and I enjoyed adding small spinners to make the big spinner spin faster. It reminded me a bit of a complex machine with small gears that spin fast to make a big gear move. Would love to see this expanded on!

Developer(+1)

Wow you reset two times?! You can get an all caps "THANKS FOR PLAYING!". I also thought about that complex machine idea in my head as I was developing this game. I'll let you know if I ever update this game. :)

Submitted

please do!

Also would really appreciate you trying out my game! There's some genre overlap so I'm curious to hear your thoughts

Submitted

Pretty barebones for an idle game, but it's a great start! And very spinny. I had an unreasonable amount of fun timing my purchases to the beat of the music.

Developer

Thanks for commenting! I do the same thing sometimes haha

Submitted

not interesting enough, it's really just an idle game.

Developer

Glad it seems like an idle game! Feel free to suggest something that could make it more interesting.

Submitted

you could make the spin theme a little more interesting instead of it being just "the things you buy spin"

Submitted

The vibe? Immaculate.

The art? Outstanding.

The music? Thumping.

Hotel? Trivago.

Hey, as a new dev, being able to get anything working in under a week is something to proud of. Good job!

Developer

Haha thanks for the comment! I'm not new to programming but game dev is definitely its own thing. Also I'm glad the metagame cog is working!

Submitted

The music is great. Aside from that, the visuals are basic and the gameplay could use some work to make it funner.

Developer

Thanks for trying my game out! I'll hopefully improve my art and the design of the game. Any suggestions?

Submitted

the audio is a banger man!

Other than that it's a good skeleton!

Developer

Thank you for playing! 

Submitted

You’ve got the mechanics for a potential cool idle farming game. I wish I could also interact actively (like spinning some spinners on my own to get more money) instead of passively watching and waiting for the money to generate. The graphics are very simple, and again- with some kind of face lift there is potential for a cool idle game like cookie clicker. The music is an absolute banger tho, no doubt.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I do plan to have some sort of active mechanic that's not too hard on your fingers.

Submitted

Impressive soundtrack although lacking in gameplay value.

Developer

Thanks for playing! What will make the game more engaging for you?

Submitted

The soundtrack is an absolute banger, and the visuals are simple and silly (but they could also use some work), but it's missing something when it comes to gameplay, imo, since it feels generic and repetitive.

Developer

Lol I'm glad that people are liking my soundtrack. Do you have any suggestions that can make the game engaging?

Submitted

I really liked the gameplay it's simple but also really addictive the music is really good and also the use of the theme the visuals are simple but they aren't ugly or try to be complex and beatiful and i think that's good cause games like this should be simple by art and gameplay.

Developer (1 edit)

Glad you enjoyed it! I plan to make it more complex if it becomes a full game though.

Submitted

I am a little confused what the goal is/what I should do. All my actions feel rather pointless in the game. I do however like the music :D

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! The goal is to make the "fan" spin fast enough. If it hits a certain speed, you will see a reset button and you can "complete" the game. I'll admit there isn't much to the game. You can click the Spinny Info arrow in the game description for tips.
