very nice for jam, lots of safespots but overall fun and enjoyable. id assume this is like a good middleground for non shmup players, but even as a player it was still challenging enough in a blind run.


slapping my run in here as well.

Thank you so much for playing! I watched the whole play through, you found some awesome safe spots. The difficulty was the hardest thing for me as the technical designer to get right, we went from very hard to very easy to hopefully somewhere in between haha you did great thank you

The game is super super hard to a new shmup player that's for sure, though a friend of mine looove these types of game I know he'd love the difficulty (might be easy for him though, the skill cap is high in games like these)
Game was great overall. I didn't get why my robot started dealing massive melee damage sometimes (probably the spin command but since I was on kb I don't really know how I did it)
I can see the dev love these types of games
Great job !

Developer

Thank you so much for playing, your comments are spot on :) <3

That was really… tough. Really tough. The first attacks left almost no room to dodge. In the trailer, it looks challenging but doable… 😅

Visually, it’s cool, and the sound design is nice, but I couldn’t even come close to beating the first boss :(

Thanks for playing! Sorry about the difficulty curve, we didn't want to drive our lead developer up the wall because he has been balancing and nerfing as much as he could without breaking the game, haha... Appreciate the feedback though!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing!! All the patterns are doable and not closed off, but it can take you off guard if you're not used to this type of gameplay. I did a bit of a playthrough here to demonstrate :) Thanks again for taking the time we really appreciate

Thank you for giving it a Spin XD it takes a bit of practice for sure but thank you for trying <3

Very good game! 

Convenient, smooth controls, which is important for this genre. The difficulty is high, as expected from Bullet Hell.

I would especially like to note the wonderful music and effects.

This is what happens when a gifted team gets together =)

I love this game! Great idea and implementation. The art, sfx, and music are all 5/5. The boss bullet designs are something I struggled with in my shmup. I could use some tips! Great job.

Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it. I really loved your game too, the whole Vertical to Horizontal shift was a nice feature and I did enjoy your bullet patterns, You're going in the right direction :D

This is the second game called "Spinfinity" made in this jam that I played and... they're both amazing!!! (this name must be blessed or something)

The game is really fun, the music is hype, the artstyle is cool (even if the size of the play area is deceptively large)

The bosses are CRAZY, the bullet paterns are INSANE and the voice is really funny!!! (did you use microsoft sam?)

I managed to beat the game with a score of 702875 after 40 minutes and loved every second of it!

Developer(+2)

Haha, thanks for the kind words and enjoying our game! Yeah the Microsoft SAM was my idea, I thought it would weirdly fit because I thought that voice in general was such a funny throwback meme. Thank you for playing and enjoying it! ^_^

I'm an old man :) why so quick. I got to the second boss. Nice.

 Too bad I had to download it, I should have made it HTML5.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and the feedback! Unfortunately, the engine we used couldn't be converted to HTML5! :)

Developer

Thank you for trying it, your game super cool XD
