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 and polished game, I do wish I could change the spin attack while maintaining my momentum my favorite part was just launching the little guy off the walls with a full spin. Great job and fun take on the theme
Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback! Definitely something I might be experimenting with when I continue working on the game after the jam.
This game is super clean and polished! I love the art and how clear the boss attacks are. I had a ton of fun with this one!
Thank you very much, I'm very glad you enjoyed it!
I llike how this game presents itself! It looks like a game you could release on IOS and Android and make like 1 million downloads in a few weeks! Its neat lol. It took me a figure out the controls but once I got it all figured out, I had a lot of fun!
Thank you so much! I do have an Android version built, and once I've expanded the game for a full release, I'll be considering publishing on the mobile stores too!
Thats sick!
i LOVE THIS game!! Super cute and the music is the best. This definitely gives tom and jerry vibes.
Thank you so much! I loved Tom and Jerry as a kid (still do), and I think it's always influenced my games in one way or another!
Damn its a really cute game, visually its really cute and the music its a great choice no dobut! The speed up really felt like I was watching a tom and jerry episode hahaha really good! I would've love more boss variety tho but overall it was a great experience! :D
Thank you so much, I am happy you enjoyed the game! I was waiting for someone to reference Tom and Jerry, and you're the first haha! Indeed, I've gotten a few feedback about the lack of variety. Definitely something I'll be working on after the jam!
Perfect Music selection! fits the gameplay soo well!!
Love the game lots of funn!!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
I really love how much this expanded and became even better than when I originally played it when you first submitted!! Very cute, and very fun. Fantastic Job!!!
Thank you for your continued support, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Will be expanding it even more after the jam.
I look forward to it!
Why are they putting this poor little hamster against these cats so many times? ;--; So cute! Despite feeling sorry for the cute little hamster, it’s a great game—I had a lot of fun, and it was a bit challenging, especially when more mechanics were introduced in the fight. Congratulations on your work!
Thank you so much for playing! I also pity the hamster sometimes, but it seems he is more than capable of fighting off the cats. I'll be expanding the game to include more bosses after the jam!
The art is so cute, The music fits the game very fall, fast paced and really fun to play!
Nice job!
Thank you so much! Here's an interesting fact: I drew everything on PowerPoint!
Pretty fun and cute game. At first I didn't like how the bosses are too similar to each other, but I like how each one adds a new stacking gimmick to the fights, making them harder without getting too complicated. Great job!
Thank you so much for playing! I've had a few feedback sent my way about the bosses being similar, so it's definitely something I'll look into when I start working on expanding the game.
This game reminds me of my poor pet hamster and my naughty cat. Exact things happened in my house before hh. The controls are simple and movements are smooth. I really enjoyed the cute assets and music. Well-done, and 恭喜发财！
Oh no, a live-action Ham-Spin in your house! I hope both the cat and the hamster are okay! Thank you so much for playing, and 恭喜发财 to you too!
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!
