This is fun and the music is a good choice for the mood.
Would have really appreciated a volume slider or lower default volume though
Thanks for your feedback :) Yes, adding a volume slider is for sure a lesson learned here.
what an amazing game so enjoyable !! we need more levels !!!
Thank you! For sure, we would also like to expand this game in the future!
This was enjoyable. I liked the variety of items you could pickup to increase your score. Spinning mechanic also forced you to focus because of the added speed. Volume was a bit unbalanced between the sounds. Collision was also a bit wonky (you can half clip into stuff on the left/right of you). Still great though, could use some refining.
Thank you! Yeah, there's a lot one could improve - and yes, unfortunately clipping through blocks is possible and happens while moving left/right. Appreciated your feedback :)
Simple yet really fun to control!! I'd love to see this game expanded with some more mechanics and levels. That along with some visual polish would make for a great full game!
Thanks for your feedback :)
Ayyy I recognise this music, I used it for my first game jam game! :)
Fun little runner, I managed to get to the end and got pretty much all the coins. Pretty unique idea to have a running platformer without a jump mechanic, gives it a cool spin on the genre.
Well done devs, can't wait to see what you make next!
Thanks a lot for your feedback, much appreciated :)
Simple but cool! W sound effects 😂(make her volume lower)
Took a while for me to hang of it but once it did, I was able to play through all the levels just fine. I enjoyed the reaction based timing especially at the last stage. I'd honestly would like to see a game like this get a little more polish given the fixed speed forcing the player to find optimal routes makes it more engaging.
Thanks for your feedback :) Optimal routes, moving obsticales, jumping, vertical movement, etc. I would also love to implement a polish version - let's see :D
I actually love the Brackey's tutorial aesthetic! It's a simple idea but there's enough complexity to do a few things. The models are nice, but I do think the spikes on the spike fences could be a different color so that it's more apparent that if you run into them you'll be having serious block-based health issues. Good overall though!
Thanks man :)
It was a good time while it lasted. I feel like the character controls need to be polished a bit more.
Thanks :) And jep, I am with you - character controls + camera could be improved.
really cool the visuals are a bit loud but I'll look to ignore that, and I love how it looks like Brakey's unity 3d tutorial
Thx. And yes, that's true :D

What is going on, the assets doesn't have much of a visual cohesion, and the audio was over the top and just distracting.
Of course, there's plenty of room for improvement here for sure. For some people, the game development journey is just beginning - therefore things are not perfect ;)
Really cute visuals and actually decent gameplay~ Only the audio is a bit too much and quite loud too.
Thank you :) And yes, we had something like audio settings planned, but well - next time :D
I like the 3D art like the bridge! Yall cooked on that, and the gameplay feels really smooth!! The super speed movement is super satisfying.
Thanks for your feedback, much appreciated :)
I really enjoyed this game. It's like an endless runner game like subway surfer or temple run by the speed boost that make you spin is a nice twist you added. In terms of adherence to the theme, it may be subjective but I don't think it doesn't feel like spin to win. One thing I could explain this is if you just retain the speed up mechanic and throw away the spinning part of the game, it would not really affect the game overall.
The visuals is clean and it could be rendered further so it would really give the feel of being a cloud runner. Same with the previous comment, the audio needs a bit of balancing, but the music is a banger!
Overall, it's a great game. Please continue making more games as you both have a lot of potential. Good job and congratulations!
That's a very kind comment, thank you! We are for sure going to be making more projects in the future. Your comment has really motivated me now, so thanks again for that!
Big thank you for your feedback :)
> In terms of adherence to the theme, it may be subjective but I don't think it doesn't feel like spin to win.
I totally agree with you. We had a lot of plans to incorporate the theme better into our game. Unfortunately, we had to remove things once again or couldn't even get started to work on them—we didn't had the needed skills :D
Interesting take on the theme. I definitely like the idea behind the boost pad that makes you spin. The risk and reward of going fast but making it harder to control definitely works, just wish there were more obstacles to explore this gameplay loop
Thank you for your comment! We also wish we could do more too but we just didn`t have enough time in the end. We might think about expanding this in the future so look out for that!
Enjoyed it very much, and the visuals are really charming! My only nitpick is that some of the sound effects were a little harsh on my ears (but to be fair, they are funny as they are)
We had to really rush the audio and so didn`t get much chance to fine-tune everything unfortunately. I`m glad you enjoyed playing though!
I hoped there would more levels but it's a nice game and also it's 3D, which is not common in game jams. I really liked the funny SFXs!
Cheers! I actually really like making 3D games more 2D so we ended up just going with that.
Great game really enjoyed it but unfortunately it crashed when I pressed alt+f4
5/5
Play Spinach to Win
Oh dear! We should really think about patching up that bug XD
I'm genuinely surprised by how fun the game is. It just needs better graphics and MORE LEVELS!
Thanks! We really did want to design more levels but just didn`t have the time to do so. We might consider doing an expanded version of this in the future so let`s see!
