Nice !

I think you have quite a cool concept here. As it stands it's a good jam entry, but with some more refined mechanics it could really become something! Fun gameplay, but I did keep turning too fast and walking into my own fire haha. Nice entry.

I had fun playing it! I saw that you used Claude Code—how long did it take you to make it? If it had a few more animations and mechanics, someone could easily spend a couple of hours on it

Thank you! It took 2 days on and off. Yes It could use more. I am making a full color version for my website. I have been making games every week, so I have a whole setup built that pushes to GitHub and deploys to Cloudflare.
