Fun game, good job.

Such a brilliant and fun game!

Good job for the first game, enjoyed taking out these "office slugs"!

Submitted

Nice work for your first game.

I liked it. I feel if the character held a little higher towards the center of the screen it would be easier to navigate. Most of the traveling and searching was downward from the start and made it harder to see where to go.

I'm not sure if this will win the jam but you did invent the Millenial dream job

It's nice to see a fellow first time dev who made a game in Gamemaker about fidget spinners lol. This game is pretty cool; the music and art are great and the gameplay loop is simple to understand and fun. The only things it needs is a way to restart the game after losing, the enemies having some animations, and maybe some security who try to stop you? But I understand not being able to get that done in the timeframe. Solid game!

I love the seriousness in the game

For a first game, this is sooo good. I like the combat and level design overall.

P.S. I will never look at a fidget spinner the same :|

7/10

Amazing job for a first game!


Like this fidget throwing mechanic, things can be improved for movement animation and stuff but overall you did a great job.

Hey there! So I just played your game and its a really nice game especially for your first game so good job :D.
The movement felt solid and it was a funny concept of throwing a fidget spinners and the game juice was definetly there!

Here are some points of improvements:
- I think the camera is a bit too zoomed in, it might be a personal preference but I'd recomend zooming the camera out a bit for certain rooms.
- I think the fidget spinners effects are great at the start but I think they're a bit too much if we constantly keep doing them. You'd usually want that level of effects for a super heavy attack.

overall cool game, great job :D

Nice game! The game feel of throwing the handspinners is amazing!

Submitted

Nice game,

The movement was good and the hand spinner felt nice.

If you are looking for potential improvement: the view feels a bit narrow, especially in the down/south direction where we can not nearly see anything below us. Also I had to change my keyboard layout because it only recognized wasd.

But other that this, it was really fun.

Very cute! Congrats on making your first game! 

The screen blur combined with the explosion and the little sound effect made it very satisfying to mow through a bunch of workers and the movement felt nice, quick and responsive. It was a quick and fun time to play through


The theming going for taking on a serious mission with something that spins is maybe a little shallow but it works! I like the portraits of this game, but all the assets being different pixel sizes makes the game a little messy to look at.

But yeah, overall I had a good time with a game that is very quick to play! congrats on making!
