This truly is a spin to win game. I think the energy and torsion box upgrades were a little difficult to understand but overall the game was pretty fun!

I'm not an idle game kinda guy, but even I have to admit that this is really, really good. The art, music, and sound design really makes it. So much satisfaction when the spinner gets flying and those particles start particling, and you see that number get huge. Really made my monkey brain happy.

I feel like the spinning itself felt a bit odd, especially in the early game. It was hard to get the hang of in a way that I didn't really expect for an idle game, and honestly might have been a stopping point for me if I wasn't playing it to give feedback and rate. I think in a different sort of the game the sort of physics-y movement might work, but for this I just wanted the darn thing to spin. Not sure if intentional, but it actually felt a lot better to me if I just flicked it on a touch screen (I'm using a Chromebook/tablet), haha.

I'm nitpicking a little though for the sake of giving feedback. This really is great. And that very serious ending really got to me. Awesome work.

Yeah I would agree that the spinning can sometimes be a bit unsatisfying and even difficult to grasp early game. This is mostly just tied to the weight stat, where the lighter it gets the easier it is to spin, which I could've probably telegraphed a bit better. But I appreciate you playing nonetheless, and I'm glad you've enjoyed it!

Very fun idle game with unique upgrades for when the older ones get stale!

Nice game. The upgrades always felt like they made a difference.
