Haha, a very serious game indeed. Right on the spot with the theme and a fun game loop. Nice soundtrack and very fun. A little to hard at sometimes, i kept dying a lot. But still, a great work!

The game was a bit challenging, but still fun! With a game system that fully incorporates “spin-to-win” mechanics, cool music, and smooth pixel animations, it’s clear just how seriously the development team took this project.

We had a similiar idea haha! It was a fun game but a bit repetitive

Felt like a ninja. Wonder if this is what Junpier is going through rn...

Clean visuals, sensible audio, and a fun idea! Particularly a big fan of the clean and fun pixel art. I think my main critique is the tutorialization and difficulty scaling. It's a little tough to figure out how to start playing the game even with the tutorial in the game, and it feels like the game gets very overwhelming very quickly. Very fun though!

Juniper gameplay goes pretty hard

A very clever spin on the theme. The one-liners really added to the fun. It took me a bit to figure out how the game works, but once I figured out the basics, I had a great time playing this!

Pretty cool idea, it took a little bit to figure out how to play but it is fun. The game criticism one liners are pretty funny. The room was a bit small and made it feel very cramped especially since it's so easy to run into things. It also took me a while to figure out that the health is the spinning orbs on the left, the visuals are very busy. Very serious entry!

This was pretty fun I wish there were a slightly easier way to tell when your right click is off cooldown (it seems like it has a delay after throwing)but thats only a small gamefeel issue so totally understandable for a jam!

It should be available after your right hand goes from pointing to bare but having a ui indication could work better yeah, thanks for playing!

Now I know that Juniper has a dead mom and a dead dog. Thanks!

I really loved this game, tons of fun. My max score so far is 24, but I'mma see if I can pump it a bit higher.

Nice Music, Nice Gameplay and nice Visual. It was hard to Understand the Controlls but when you knew it it was very fun.

Developer

Thanks!
