This is easily one of my favorite games from the jam! I absolutely loved the cutscenes, the visuals, the concept, and the story. Everything came together so well, and it kept me engaged from start to finish. It has so much personality and was a blast to play. Fantastic work!

Courting ScarlettDo you wanna know how I got these scars? My father was a spinner... and a FIEND! And one night, he goes off crazier than usual. Mommy gets thhe kitchen knife to defend herself. He doesn't like that. Not... One... Bit.... so, me watching, he starts spinning her around the room, laughing while he does it. He turns to me several times, and he says, "WhY sO sErIoUs?!" He flings mommy with the blade at my mouth - "Let's put a SMILE on that face!" And... why so serious?

SpinBallerThis game is great. Loved the cutscenes, dialogue, and gameplay. It all came together really well. The different interactions were fun to play with too, like picking up a cop with a gun and using him to shoot everyone else. The only thing is I feel the throwing mechanic should take into account the spinning momentum, it seems to just release in the direction they are facing which feels a bit weird. This was really fun, nice job!

RippersFirst of all, thank you so much for the nice words and I'm glad you liked so many parts of the game, makes me very happy! The thought about making the throw more accurate did cross my mind, but my programming skills aren't thaaat good so it would take quite some time to fix, so I prioritized other things for now, but you are 100% right, it would be nice if it moved with the direction you moved better.Thanks for taking the time to play and thanks for the feedback!
The hit visual feedback is awesome! And really loved that intro scene too.

A Child's DreamWhat an amazing game. The kid throwing physics were surprisingly realistic.

Franky's (Not So) Fresh FlipsOkay dude. I laughed through all playthrough. Did it just once (3k4 and some for my high score), and was a little bit disappointed to be restricted to not grab tanks, but was reaaaly fun. Thanks fo this memorable experience!

Roll, You! Roll!Thank you for playing and it makes me very happy that it made you laugh! I never intended the tanks to be grabbable, and therefore never playtested that, but apparently I must have forgotten some snippet of code because now the game crashes if you try to do it. You can still explode them by deflecting or grabbing their bullets tho! Thank you for leaving such a nice review!
Very good game. Got a nice laugh out of me. The realistic hands with the pixel art hits just right.

Spinning ...in SpaceThis was honestly a really fun game, and your implementation of spinning is just peak. I love the art you made for this too. Nice job! I hope you had fun making this game too! Unfortunately, it's just way to serious for me to play... :)

In This Economy!?I did have a lot of fun making it! Making it work in browser was what messed me up in the end :/ Gonna have to fix that after the jam. Thank you for the nice words and it means a lot to me that you liked both the mechanics AND the graphics haha. I'm assuming you had someone else play the game for you since it was too serious? That's very understandable, not everyone can handle it.... Thank you for the review!
An absolute banger, but you know that already. I wanna spin it all away and for it to just be spun and spin.

The Cult of Unicycle IslandI almost wet myself laughing... (I'm joking, it's just for emphasis).
