Ham-Spin's itch.io pageGame's Take on the Theme
A hamster spinning in a hamster ball, fighting off cats trying to get to it.
Did your team make the majority of the art and music during the jam?
Yes to all of the art. For music, I'm using public domain/free to use/unrestricted/commercial use ones. Will be including attribution in the game.
If not, please link to any asset packs or resources used here.

Cute visuals and creative way of executing the theme! Roll roll roll!
Thank you so much! I enjoy making games about small animals getting in trouble :D.
lots of fun rate my game too
Thanks so much for playing!
This game is awesome, the bosses get exponentially more difficult, the controls are simple, they're all CATS. This is no doubt my favorite game I've played so far. It's really fun and the music choice could not have been better.
Thank you so much for playing, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Yes, they're all CATS for now haha, and I plan to have other animals in there too!
Very well-made game with lots of content. Well done! =)
Thanks so much for playing!
Very well done! This was one of the games I was most looking forward to after seeing it on one of the feedback streams. I don't know that the boss damaging aspect would have been totally clear to me without having watched it on stream, but knowing that each boss felt like a lot of fun and difficulty seemed to ramp very nicely.
I really enjoyed the public domain music. It was a perfect fit.
Thank you so much! Definitely will be tweaking stuff, and perhaps have some sort of indicator to guide first-time players. I have to admit, when I first put in the public domain music, I couldn't help but laugh at how silly it was, but yet so fitting for the game!
This was really fun! The controls are very simple and you immediately get the hang of the attack patterns. Fitting music choice as well, great job!
Thank you so much! I wanted to just make a silly game without any dialog, and the music sort of came to me by accident when I posted my work on social media. I chose 'can-can' and immediately thought 'hey, this works perfectly!'.
I loved your game! it was very fun and it is very cute, after you first hit the head it gets hard fast, that's very nice. Congrats!
Thank you for playing! It might still need some tweaks and balancing. Will be working on it post jam!
Movement in this game feels great! Played this one with my partner and we both were a little confused about how to actually beat the bosses.
Thank you so much! Charge up and spin towards anything that's twinkling (I got this idea from Astrobot).
This game has such a cool boss battle concept! The music and visuals only enhance the experience. I love the idea, and I had a blast with its execution. The boss attack patterns are clear, and I never once wondered, "What am I supposed to do?"—a sign of truly well-thought-out design. Fantastic work!
Thank you so much! It took a little bit of experimenting to get things working the way they are, so I'm very happy that you found the experience positive!
A very well-made game!! I love it!! The art style is amazing and so coherent too
So simple yet so fun to play with!! top 10 games this JAM for sure!!
Thank you for playing it! So glad you like it. Not sure if it's top 10 because there are so many awesome games around, but I enjoyed working on it and am planning to expand it after the jam!
Love the game! Had alot of fun playing it :) Extra points for CNY themed boss XD
Thank you for playing! Happy CNY!
the game is soo simple yet soo hard for some reason.. i'm loving it xD
Thank you so much, I'm glad you like it! :D
Love the visuals and mechanic. This feels really polished, definitely lends itself to expanding it into a full game. Great job!
Thank you so much, so glad you like it! Indeed, I do have plans to expand it in the future!
I really like the poppy semi 3D look for the visuals. Maybe reduce some hitpoints on the first phase but other than that I really liked it.
Thank you so much for playing! There's indeed some balancing that needs to be done, I hope to continue working on this post jam.
Amazing, simple and well executed idea. A variation of attack mechanics may be beneficial but a good game.
Thank you so much for playing! Indeed, I hope to continue working on this post-jam, adding more content and of course, more bosses.
Masterpiece , Browser and Mobile.
Thank you for playing!
Fun game !
Thanks for playing!
Pros: fun game, nice spincharge mechanic. Cons: no ham
Thank you so much! I'm so sorry, will include actual ham in the future.
This one is one of my favorites.
Those are such kind words, thank you so much!
Love this game, the design is charming and the music is great! The idea of a hamster in a spinning ball is a very unique take on the theme.
Thank you, I'm so happy you enjoyed it! I tend to make games with smol animals.
