Nice work overall, I enjoyed the idea of replaying the level after it spun!

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 platformer - lots of different obstacles and enemies. Great work with the UI and animations. Well done!

Oh No, Zombies Again!Really cool platformer! Movement feels bubbly and responsive, and neat use of the theme too!

The Food ChainFun 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

Chrono HorizonLots 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.

Bound by Your WordI 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!
The rotating level was great. Platforming felt solid. Great job all around.

A Grave SituationReally 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!

Tree DefendersThe effect of the level spinning is super cool, very creative execution. It's a nice and challenging platformer. Good job!

Kelpie the VulpineReally 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!!

Project: XenomouseThat'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!

unSentencedThe levels were simple enough to figure out but completing them was challenging at times! The rotation of the levels was a really cool mechanic!
