Bunches of fun.   This was a very entertaining game.  I always love a good turtle race!  :) I completed it and love the spinning addition to the final showdown.  I am curious if the wheel spins were weighted in favor of the player beyond what was visible, or if it was truly random?   This is something I wonder about often.  In my game there is a very quiet player assist that weights the players vector towards the target once they are close enough, which makes it feel like you nail the target.  Overall, I have very few notes.  Your game was entertaining, complete, fun, and worked well... with good audio to boot!  Great work and I had fun playing.   Also I named myself Sheriff ;)

The wheel spins are completely random, for better or worse. Glad you liked it!

Submitted

Awesome game! It gave me chills as I waited to see if I passed. Audio was immaculate and the visuals had a lot of character. Great work!

Submitted

It really gave me an awesome game show vibe, and that thrill of spinning the wheel even though you were winning 7-1 was genuinely stressful :-)

Unfortunately, I totally messed up the ending, that was too much for my brain. But really well done, it was a lot of fun.

Submitted

Sooo good! Really liked the visuals and how polished it is. Impressive for just one week, wow

Submitted

Now I get how it fits the theme: when the screen starts spinning, Bob wins. And I die. Bob spins the screen to win. (Just kidding.)

I tried my best, but I couldn’t get past the third level. I don’t know if there’s a fourth level beyond that. As far as the part I played goes, this is a really well-made game! Great job! :D

Submitted

Pretty fun game! I love the atmosphere and the minigames, the visuals are good as well, I loved the pixelated people :D I liked the music too. Overall a pretty enjoyable game!

Submitted

Wow. This game in so good! I enjoyed the minigames and the boss at the end, the visuals were awesome and the sound design was very good too. I also really like the story and this game is very polished too. A lot of effort must have went into this. Good job!

Submitted

very fun game, having the images of real people pixelated was a great and unique touch 

Submitted

Really cool game! Tough minigames, but they add to the charm! I ran into some issues with the audio, but other than that, pretty solid game!

Submitted

It was perfect down to the every last minute this could be the best jam game I have ever played well done I have nothing to say It was so entertaining fighting sgsindt bob one last time

Submitted

Each level progressively engages the senses, and the pacing is absolutely spot on. The boss battles, in particular, are incredibly memorable!!

Submitted

This was way more creative than I first expected! Creative narrative and minigames, and the last bossfight, erm, I mean TicTacToe, was super cool, could make a whole game with just that haha. I do think 8 rounds were a bit long for the turtle game, but I got why when I saw the wheel. I never landed on a red spot, but I can imagine it would feel pretty terrible if you did, its a little brutal, but thats just what you have to expect at a wheelspin of death! Once again, super creative and well executed!

Submitted

You nailed the vibe of a game show to the death. The pixelated-realistic hosts were a great touch, it gave OG Mortal Kombat or video game Wheel of Fortune vibes. Writing was on point, very funny tongue-in-cheek. I did die after the math challenge on 1/8 odds, which was painful, but that's just how it spins outs sometimes! Would love to see different minigames get randomly chosen to make each run different, but game jams are short and you put a lot of polish into what you have here!

Submitted

Great interpretation of the theme and really fun mechanics! The art is also fantastic. I just wish there was a little more time for the math questions. XD The boss fight phase is really interesting too, although I couldn't make it much further. Great game! :D

Submitted

Loved minigames, although turtle minigame felt a bit too looong, bit it is a minor thing. Besides thatr loved everything 

Submitted

This is really cool! I love the visuals!!

Submitted

The visuals, SFX, and UI are all phenomenal. I also like the fact that your chances on the spinner are proportional to how you performed in that round. Though I did have a couple runs end at 2/8 or 1/8 odds which feels pretty bad. Maybe having a "lifeline challenge" to  save your life could be good. Great job!

Submitted

That is one fast turtle.
Awesome game, cool art, very serious and fits the theme!

Submitted

Really fun game. Nice job with all the ideas you have here! It feels very smooth and convenient to play too.

Submitted
