I love the humor behind this game lol. Those class cards and the goofy casino chips especially. The game is enjoyable, too bad I can’t like the gambling since it’s not a gambling game 😔🎰🎰🎰

Great job on this entry!

A very well put together game with a bunch of passion behind it, good stuff. I love the goofy art style of the characters you play against and the boss is very well designed. The gameplay is quick and snappy going back and forth between enemies and me, but I felt it was at times maybe a bit too easy, because I didn't fully understand what I was doing and I still decimated the boss with a one hit 200 damage kill, so some balancing might be required. Good work otherwise though, the tradeoff of safety for power was a very interesting and cool idea that really worked in this project's favour.

this is SO GOOD, especially for a first game

choosing between a 100% guaranteed weak ability or putting all ability on the roulette for powerfulls ability was pretty clever,  i like it

Great job for a first game! Admittedly it does have little replayability for a rougelike (simply because it only has the one event and all enemies feel the same), but the main mechanic is super clever!

As someone who ADORES spinner wheels in board games and have since I was little, it felt like this jam entry was made for me. The character sprites had me in tears, and the execution is faithful to its inspiration. I would have liked some confirmation for what upgrades actually did in the moment, rather than finding out in the next combat, but that's really my only criticism. A fantastic job well-done.

Really enjoyed this game. The spin-to-win theme was spot on.

This is a very well made game! I quite enjoyed my time and the visuals are really cool

Woah! Nice soundtrack and sounds. I also liked the rainbow letters. 

Pretty ambitious game, especially with the boss and graph-map. Super impressive. 

Would be cool to see more things to add to the wheel. Also clearer communication as to the value of each ability on the wheel. And maybe have the wheel update every time an ability is ticked?

thanks for the comment! yes the idea maybe was too big for noobies like us butwe are quite happy with the result. it would need a lot more abilities for sure. also the auto update for the wheel it's just a thing in the to do list we didn't manage to add, but I agree would be a great quality of life improvement. we'll see maybe with an improved build after the jam

Haha yeah that’s how it goes with game jams you don’t always get everything done. Nice one it is a great result

Liked the idea, I’d be interested in seeing what the future holds for this one, wasn’t sold on the art, but liked the spinning and wheel customisation. Nice job

I'm glad this isn't a gambling game. I was worried at first, before I'd read the title, because I just kept wanting to play more... round after round, and then one more round. Then I thought, "Oh no, it's got me hooked," but then I finally read the title. What a relief! 

11/10
