Immaculate game. I did respect the platypus's wishes and stopped at 70 spins. 100/25

Developer

Thank you, on mine and the platypus's behalf

I blowed him up real good.

Developer

Erm actually the correct past tense participle of the word "blow" is "blew" 🤓

Submitted

Yes, I was just having fun with words. Thank you.

I got what I asked for, perhaps even a little more. 

Developer

Thanks for spinning!

This gives so much peak 2000s flash game energy and it is quite charming for that. But why let me spin more than 70 times...

Don't you know the old saying? Curiosity killed the plat

It does exactly what it says on the tin.

Developer

It does.

Well I'll be damned, the world did end

Developer(+1)

Yeah y'know what they say: curiosity is like nuclear warfare (both are nouns)

My esteemed Mr. Platypus,

It is my great pleasure to inform you that this experience was most delightful.
It brought me many hearty laughs, the visuals were absolutely splendid, and above all, I found the main character utterly magnificent, charismatic, profound, and, most importantly, a true connoisseur of the spin.

Alas, he did explode... but what a glorious journey it was while it lasted.

10/10

I humbly receive this letter with much joy, Mr. tasticc. 

I am simply overjoyed by your delight in the experience I have curated for you. The main character is (or was) indubitably fitting of your description. Best of luck in your future endeavors.

Spinningly,

CrimsonChallenger

As a professional platypus fan, I can confirm that the platypus did not survive the explosion.

Developer

Thank you JamBrot, I was uncertain of his state of being. Glad to have trained professionals on hand to verify stuff like this 👍

I could really relate to the main charachter, it touched my heart <3

Developer

Thanks, I worked really hard on the dialogue ☺️ (I had no idea what I was doing bro I don't do writing 😭)

Submitted(+1)

This was hilarious!! Could have been fun to have a slightly more random audio for spinning, like some WEEE and WHOOA :) regrettably I was too curious :( but genuinely amazing!! :)
