Short and sweet puzzle platformer. My favorite levels were the last two as it was fun to time the rotations to avoid the spikes. It reminded me of some of the levels in Celeste. Simple mechanics, simple art, simply a good experience!

Simple game, I  like the cute visuals you did for it. I could see you adding more levels to this! Great job on it keep it up!

It could use a few more levels, more consistent sprites and some bug fixing, but the idea is cool. It's not that innovative, I remember playing flash games that were pretty much the same gameplay loop. I'd also make it so you can, for example, spin only once and have to touch the ground to be able to spin again. This way it would add some puzzle elements instead of just being able to fly everywhere. Still very cool and fun to play, wish it was a big longer. Congrats!

I really like the style and gameplay,it is not the most creative but still good!

Such a simple yet enjoyable concept! One thing I'd like is a faster rotation of the room

Before any of you say anything about the audio, I know it's broken. It should work on the downloads, but for some reason itch just breaks it. :(

CLASSIC!! The world itself spins around! Lvl 6 actually posed a challenge, that was the only level i died in (like 10 times). The rest were very easy.

Criticisms: Very few actually:

1. The bgm stopped after level 1.

2. The levels apart from lvl 6 could've been made a bit harder :)

Overall, really enjoyed!! Hope you check out my game too <3

I don't know what happened with the music... It worked just fine and then I broke it right before submitting it. It seems to work just fine on the mac download (I can't say for windows, I don't have anything windows, but it'll probably work there too)


I played your game, thought it was a really cool idea! It was a bit strange to get the hang of but I liked it a lot! Also it might just be a skill issue, but I felt like it was a bit hard to tell where I was going to land a lot of the time. Most of the time I would undershoot.

Had a really good time with this. Wish there were even more levels to play seems like you can do a lot with this concept.

I liked it, nice simple platforming game, sorta puzzle-y. Definitely could be expanded with more elements, good job!

Submitted

Simple but works well! Mechanics are solid ,easy to understand and intuitive as heck.
I think what would work really well in this game is if you add an additional achievement to complete each level without touching any ground after the first spin. That would really add somechallenge factor.

I love puzzle games and this was a great one! I really like the art style and the subtle idle animations for all of the objects/player. I know you didn't get to make as many levels as you would have liked, but if you decide to continue making it I would add a transition level between levels 3 and 4 to introduce the spikes with an easier puzzle. Overall, good job!

Submitted

I really liked the game concept, the visuals are cute and the controls were easy to understand. I think some background music would definitely help!

I'm so glad you said this. Somehow I managed to break the audio right before uploading the game and I just didn't notice. It should be fixed now!

Submitted

OH! great! I changed my rating in regards of the audio now :D

Developer(+1)

I don't know if it worked for you, but on the web version the audio is broken for me. it seemed to work just fine when I downloaded it, so I would recommend doing that if it didn't sound right for you.

Fun mechanics and cute visuals 😊 I liked the surprise of pressing the arrow keys.  The only thing I would change is the direction they make it rotate. I think it's more intuitive for Left to be anti-clockwise and Right to be clockwise, like turning a steering wheel.
