How does your game fit the theme?
Reaching the portal at the end of the level will result in the level rotating, finding you needing to complete it again. Thus beginning anew after the end.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?

Nice work overall, I enjoyed the idea of replaying the level after it spun!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
Nice platformer - lots of different obstacles and enemies. Great work with the UI and animations. Well done!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
nice paltforming !
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
Really cool platformer! Movement feels bubbly and responsive, and neat use of the theme too!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
Fun little platformer. The idea of the level spinning and then you playing is upside down was a neat concept. The blades tended to be a bit annoying to wait for since its time you cant do anything in and then you might have to repeat that section multiple times if you die after it. The polish details like the pow coming up was a good touch and the addition of a save system was also great
Thank you for the feedback and for playing my game! The blades are def the biggest draw back for gameplay. I needed about two more hours to nail down their timing. Sadly I lost most of day 7 due to my wife making plans lol. Thank you again for the feedback!
Lots of great aesthetic polish here. Sprites look crisp and interesting, and the rotated levels were a nice touch. I was getting SNES Mode 7 flashbacks. :). The game got too difficult for me in the level with the "too easy" hallway.
Jumping felt good, but the attacks seemed to be slower than I was expecting for some reason, especially for a ninja. (Maybe they start with a delay, maybe they're slow overall.) Not a big deal since the game doesn't seem to require precise attacks, just wanted to mention it in case it helps.
This might be the first jam game I've played with intentional controller support (where the game explicitly acknowledges controller support). Thanks for that! Platformers are way more enjoyable to me with a controller.
I really appreciate the detailed feedback. In hindsight the attacks were a little on the slow side. I do think you are right about the delay. I set the attack up weirdly and never got it feeling perfect but had to make concessions. The game was designed for a controller because I have issues playing platformers with a keyboard lol. It does make for issues during a jam though as the keyboard controls are a bit off. Glad you appreciated that!! Again. Thank you so much for the feedback!
Awesome work on the game, nice and challenging without being too crazy!
Good take on the theme here. The controls were nice and responsive on the keyboard. Really liked the visuals and the music was very hype also :D
Really appreciate the feedback! Thank you for playing!
The rotating level was great. Platforming felt solid. Great job all around.
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Appreciate it!
Nice game! I really liked the idea of the level rotating, I think it fits the theme pretty well! The movement also felt very nice and snappy. Nice job!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Much appreciated!
Really interesting idea with the level turning around! I enjoyed the levels outside of the time I had to wait for the spinning blades. Awesome visuals and audio, very polished. Overall, well done!
Thank you for playing and the feedback! Yes I agree the blades were a bit off, should have had a little more rhythm to them. Thank you again!
The effect of the level spinning is super cool, very creative execution. It's a nice and challenging platformer. Good job!
Thank you for playing and for your feedback! I appreciate it and am glad you enjoyed!
Really interesting concept that you executed well! The art looks great, but I'm a bit confused why a turtle is in an icy area haha. I had some small bugs with the text (skip button not showing and skip button showing once text had finished), but nothing really outside of that. Great job!!
That's a mystery :) I had intended on opening cut scenes but had to make concessions due to time constraints. Between work and familial obligations I only had about 4.5 days to work on the game :) Thank you for playing and I appreciate the feedback. Sorry you experienced those bugs. I will add them to my bug report!
Love the idea of spinning the level to make it different, nice sounds and an overall good platformer. The attack feels really nice!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
Great game. the levels are interesting and chalanging and the art style is realy funny. It reminds me of those old flash games everyone used to play.
Great game. keep it up♥
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed!
I love your game. The graphics was cute, the game was really fits the theme.
Thank you for playing and thank you for the feedback! Much appreciated!
Hey, you where that old dad guy from discord! I love your game. It’s really fun and challenging. I also love the cool twist. I could see this being on steam!
I am that old dude lol. I am glad you liked it. Thank you for playing and for your words of encouragement!
Dude amazing work, I saw you took into account my feedback from yesterday with the bookmark thingy. Now I can finally enjoy it and it is amazing!! great work once again!
If you want try our game as well! <3
Thank you for playing again and thank you for the feedback! I really appreciated that, I would have never caught it because I tested with a controller. Super helpful! I will be checking yours out in a few minutes!
Thanks a lot man! No worries thats what the community is for, to test and feedback each other hahaha.
Tell us what you think when you play it. :D
The game is very good, a little bit difficult but it's my fault
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
really fun. I am not very good at platformers so it took me quite a while!
Thank you for playing! Some of the difficulty was a bit unnecessary and could have used a little more time in the playtest oven :) I appreciate your feedback!
The levels were simple enough to figure out but completing them was challenging at times! The rotation of the levels was a really cool mechanic!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
