Wow really loved the art style and theme of this game! The concept of making a 3D tower but being actual 2D and have to spin to dodge and attack the bosses was a very clever idea! Really well done! I also loved the music of this game, really arcady, loved it! Congrats! <3

Another game that deserves to win, the spinning around the arena mechanic was a thing I wanted to put in one of the bosses. we had to cut it out due to not knowing how to implement it in time, we wanted to do something like the first Klonoa boss for that one.
I love that the first boss has a touch hitbox because it's the way he attacks being melee and stuff, but the penguin doesn't have one, its a small thing but shows the thought that went into the game design, there are tons of things that I can describe that makes this game very good but if I listed I would stay here for a while.
a problem I found was when you are going in a direction and just tap the other direction the player will continue facing that way, making running then attacking a bit awkward at times, and the penguin fire seems to have a bigger hitbox than one would think.
great art, music and sounds!
rooting for you guys! good luck!

Really cool game, i like that style of 2D with 3D effect, art is coo, nice game! 

Really cool take on the theme! Big fan of the "spinning" background, really makes us feel like we are spinning around a tower and adds a lot to it - really enjoyed that. The controls are simple yet have a nice mastery curve, which is super sweet.

Really really solid game, the boss fights are super fun and the whole experience was awesome!

I struggled a bit with the keyboard controls but it is incredibly clear that this game succeeds on all fronts and I am astonished I didn't see it until now! 4-5 stars across the board except for controls as I didn't vibe with them. Great work!!

I like a lot the feel of classic arcade, reminds me to SkyBlazer, really well made, I find your pixel art really awesome, I rate graphics, control fun and music the most but all is greta really, also, if you have some time, please, rate my game too, thanks!!!

This game is really fun to play! Loved the bosses, and especially loved all the graphics and effects in you game! IT's really polished!

(P.S. If you're willing to I'd love it if you gave some feedback on my game! this is my first ever game jam and I'd love to see where I can improve for the future!)

I adore creative uses of perspective in games, anything that can give me that Fezlike experience is just an instant gold star in my books, and this game did that absolutely flawlessly. The use of perspective with the rotating arena was used to such an awesome effect in literally every single boss fight, and that kept the game consistently engaging despite the very retro-inspired difficulty. Everything here is just so clean and responsive, and the bosses are designed immaculately 

Extremely solid game here. I may have some issues with it, but it doesn't take away from the fact that you guys made something really great here

First off, the music and sound effects are excellent. Nothing else I can really say there. The visuals as well were also amazing, but that kinda goes without saying. The animations are all great and the bosses telegraph their attacks really well. I do love the effect that you guys created to make the spiral tower as well.

However, I do have a bit of an issue with this effect, and I'd say that this kinda applied a lot with the first boss. I got knocked back by quite a decent distance when he hit me. Now that by itself isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it caused quite a lot of disorientation because of the spiral effect. Maybe the amount you get knocked back could be reduced slightly ?

On that note, I'd say that every boss was pretty distinct and fun to fight. Part of me does wish that all of the bosses had maybe  1 or 2 more attacks that they cycled through, mostly because they all became somewhat monotonous at some point, but honestly that's more of a nitpick than anything else. Although I do think that the attack that the squid did when it spawned those bullets from those portals suffered in terms of visual clarity since it was a little hard to gauge the distance between the player and them ( probably just a skill issue though )

Honestly, I can nitpick all I want, but y'all have made something very polished, very lean, well paced and fun. I'd be surprised if you didn't win something

Being the best game I played in the jam, and the fact that it’s a blue rabbit :0, I loved the game, and besides being very balanced, it’s fun to play

really awesome, graphics, bosses and mechanics. really hard!! 

This is possibly one of my favorite entries, the polish and mechanics are so well done! Love what you did with the shaders, absolutely stunning!

It's a perfect game, the art is beautiful, the SFX fits really well, the controls are great, and it's super fun. All the bosses are unique and have amazing designs. Congrats, amazing game!

Everything about this game is perfect, the art is so beautiful, the bosses are fun to play and the main character has really cool attacks.

I really had a lot of fun playing this game. Great Job. I loved the art style and the mechanics. One of the most polished games I had played.

I absolutely love this, the way the tower spins is so good and the music is superb, reminds me alot of shovel knight. My only thing is the controls, after the first boss i had a really hard time with the platforming outside the tower, i understood what i was supposed to do but for some reason i just couldn't do it, that might be on me though and I'll try again with a controller. What a great game, good job!

5 stars game. What a gem. 

Woah, that rotation effect looks super neat, I loved the hollow knight like combat with pogos and the bosses felt really enjoyable to play, good job :)

So polished. Many interesting platformer game. Visually stunning.

Please rate my 2s platformer duck game, when you have some time.

Game has really good idea and great realization. Using perspective to know when to dodge is a great idea. Good job.
