Very dopamine inducing once you get a lot of upgrades!
Amazingly spinny!
I wish there was more player input and more stakes - like a way to lose
and as for player input, there could be a betting system.
I got bored at the beginning because it feels like no matter what I do I always win I just have to click until I win. I saw a video of Juniper going to some slots place and she always lost yet those places are addictive as well, so my bit of advice is - don't be afraid to hurt the player a little :d
graphics are extremely good reminds me of old casino sites or idk I love it I really love it
music is extremely good too!
Thank you for the music compliments!
The beginning needs to pickup a little faster but this game has juice. I had to stop myself from playing it all day lol.
extremely well polished, in its current state could very much be just a finished game. kudos to you!!!
Really well-polished game here. High marks all around.
Only bit of feedback: I almost gave up on the game about two minutes in because in the beginning it is just so slow before you've got enough spins to unlock the first few upgrades. I stuck with it though, eventually wound up getting to like 20 million wins and a cacophany of bells and lightning strikes and had a good time.
had a bunch of fun with this one! once wheel speed increase was unlocked the game became pure dopamine simulator. i am proud to be a wheelionaire
Ui, audio, visuals - amazing! If u r going to scale this game after the jam, consider adding more types of currencies, to add a new layer of depth to the game, and mb even a losing condition, to make decisions more spicy
Glad to hear you enjoyed the music! I saw the game halfway through the jam and I just HAD to reach out!
I became a wheelionare in 33 minutes. I think the first 25 minutes were spent getting to 10k, then for maybe 8 minutes I was spam-clicking the “spin all wheels” button. I then found the auto-spinner in my last few minutes of gameplay, so I didn’t have to click anymore.
After winning the game, I went back to investigate the wheel fusion mechanic. That was pretty cool! I’m glad there is a way to reclaim wheel slots, and it does something different from the typical upgrade.
I liked the slow start at the beginning and the snowball effect, though it is probably a bit too extreme in how exponential it feels. Once I had 4 wheels, everything else was a blur where I could always afford to buy as many upgrades as I wanted. I didn’t really understand which upgrades unlocked which other upgrades (thus my late discovery of the auto-spinner), and the Luck mechanic was unclear to me, so I think this dissuaded me from exploring all the upgrades earlier on when the top upgrades had such obvious utility and cheapness in comparison. Still good gameplay for a game jam, though!
The sound and visual design is top-notch: very nice work on the clicky buttons, music, and whirr sounds. Some lag issues at the endgame, and the audit button uses an emoji that doesn’t render on my system, but those are minor problems. Overall, fun game!
Glad you liked it an thanks for the feedback!
It definitely starts a bit slow then snowballs almost too fast for the amount of upgrades and currency floating around.
Peak game :)
Yo I'm not a fan of the incremental game genre myself but i thoroughly enjoyed this game. I got wheelionare in one sitting and might've kept playing if my computer would stop lagging lol. I really liked the lightning upgrade i thought it was the upgrade I could "see" the most ifykwim. My only nitpicks were the repetitive sfx for winning, but theres not much you could do there for a game jam. Amazing game I loved it!

Thanks for the kind words!
Performance is in need of an improvement for sure. Especially when you have multiple chained lightnings or shockwaves constantly spinning! I’ve got a few more sfx recorded but they weren’t as good as the original batch I made so they didn’t make the cut for the jam submission.
The UI + incremental Game that's perfection
i love idle games, this was just missing a way to automate fusing and it would have been perfect, incredibly good visuals!
Thanks! I was trying to get more automation an longer term progression in but I couldn’t get it feeling goo before the deadline. Hopefully in a future upadte!
We had similar ideas hahah! Well done, the game snowballs very quickly but its fun!
Glad you had fun! Your game is also quite fun. It gives me more inspiration for future work on Wheelionaire!
Peak gameplay, performance (at least in web build) hurts a little towards then end. Still don’t understand what ‘Lucky’ does XD
UI is very polished, I liked that.
