Game's Take on the Theme
you will have to select the abilities the boss throws at you by standing on a spinning wheel around the boss.

Did your team make the majority of the art and music during the jam?
most of them, i used some sfx packs for soundeffects

If not, please link to any asset packs or resources used here.

good art designs and gameplay.

This was one of my favourite games I saw on the Discord feedback sessions so was excited to play it. Its definitely one of my favourite takes on the theme, and it plays really nicely.

A great game, very beautiful and with a very interesting concept! The wheel under the bosses is a great mechanic, which makes you want to improve even more! Often, I didn't have too much trouble positioning myself on the sun.

Well done for this great submission :D

The theme was used in an innovative way!!

I love the artStyle!!

This game is hard and challenging. But it's on me as I was playing with my macbook's trackpad. Controller integration would've been nice tho. Definitely will come to play this game again. Rated it highly.

Pretty good game! All 3 characters had different play style and so did all bosses.

A lot was going on on screen and fhankfully dangerous areas could've been recongnized for the most time without too much troublems.

Easily one of my favorites. There's so much Replayability with all the other weapons and power ups. Loved the visuals and unique boss designs and abilities, as well as the player's abilities and controls.

Developer(+1)

thank you so much! Sounds like you might be one of the few who played the whole game? I guess i should have given the player the second weapon earlier it feels a bit wasted now :‘D

Submitted(+1)

I actually forgot to use the second weapon haha. I also forgot what key it was supposed to be to use it. Still fantastic game though. Did you develop the whole thing by yourself? I couldn't tell if you and Thaddeus OTT were the same person

Developer(+1)

If you beat all 3 bosses in a row you get a new weapon then you can fight the last boss and get a little comic for some lore. Its like not possible to not use the new weapon so i guess you did not make it x) and yeah im thaddeus 

Submitted(+1)

Oh then I probably used it without realizing, since I got to see that little ~4 page red comic strip at the end.

And congrats on making something so entertaining and successful with just yourself!

Very impressive number of mechanics for the bosses! I was never bored! And it's one of a few games where dying is just a skill issues and on an unfair or unpolished design problem!

Art and music do feel a little bit dull - but it's barely noticeable because of joy of sheer playing. Thanks for the experience!

Developer(+1)

thank you! I put a lot of work into the balancing but there is only so much time so music and art had to suffer (sad on the art part because thats the thing i thought i was good at)

Submitted(+1)

Good job on the visuals! I found it easy to play, so that's a plus :D The audio section feels a bit "neglected"... Why does no one take care of the sound? jejej Great work! 

Developer

thanks! I sadly dont know much about sound so im kinda proud of what i managed to do anyways^^ but yeah there is a lot of air for improvement 

Submitted(+1)

Pretty much a perfect score from me. Very clean game, only thing i'd say is the rogue like elements are a bit odd in a game thats so short and doesnt keep scaling. Be cool if there was a way to loop or something. But honestly thats just me trying to nitpick. Great great job!

Developer

thank you ! Yeah maybe i add some waves or more bosses after the jam, but i gotta say its nice how it is for balancing reasons. On the other hand a roguelike might not need to be balanced

Another perfect entry in my book, Incredible job on this absolute masterpiece... IN SCRATCH TOO!?

Developer(+1)

thehe just like playing with lego but less expensive  

Submitted(+1)

My favourite so far! unique and well done, congrats

Developer

thanks!

Submitted

Forcing the player to interact with the wheel mechanic is great, and allowing you to pick what it's gonna be is also super innovative. The game feels good plays good and the art style is memorable. Well done!

Submitted

Probably my favorite take on the theme so far! The visuals, gameplay, the sound and music are all amazing. Really great job man, makes me hungry for more.

Submitted (1 edit)

the game is nothing but impressive man..! the art style.. and the funny sfx, and the most creative take on the theme! i also really like how the story ends as well.. i-it's very heart breaking :o

good job of the game man ^-^

Submitted

The most creative theme usage I have seen so far, really nice job!

Submitted

Lovely game, creative theme use and amazing bosses, just perfect!

Submitted(+1)

This game is very unique and I love it! Instead of the actual boss telegraphing the attack you can look at the wheel instead and that makes for a very interesting playstyle. Very creative and well thought out game! Combat is also oddly satisfying despite being simple!

Submitted(+1)

This is such an interesting take on spin and very creative!

As you play you get used to choosing which boss attack pattern you perform better against!

The art also fits the game well and is very unique, I love how the minotaur boss turned out. Really really cute

Submitted(+2)

Wow, your art its so unique! This artstyle could really stand out from other games. Im very impressed. 

Developer

thanks means a lot! ill make sure to check your game out once the rating starts ! :)
