How does your game fit the theme?
through the connection between your hammer and you you can spin faster or slower. I kept on changing the game and I'm not sure if it still fits the theme. Controls: A, D

I won't cover the spawning spin issue as others already have, otherwise this was a really fun concept and a good time overall. I know you didn't make the music but it still paired well with the gameplay and made the experience very chill, and the sfx was a good choice too. Its clear how this fits the theme and a good take on the jam. Good job!
This was really fun when it worked. As others have pointed out, though, I think it's a little luck-heavy in that even at max spin sometimes you just won't be able to turn fast enough to save yourself. One solution for that might be to add a special move or block or something that reverses your spin. Still, this is a neat concept and I think you could probably expand on the mechanic a bit. Nice work!
The presentation is really good, it is also really fun to play! However it is kinda frustrating when you can’t turn around on time (not sure if it was intentional or not), it feels like the game relies too much on luck for me.
Also using up and down keys would be more intuitive, you could make both work really!
I feel like arrow keys up/down for extend/retract could've been a bit more obvious than A and D.
If the turning time was a bit faster when you were tucked in, I could see this being a really fun mobile game!
EDIT: Also, since a couple people are struggling to find the buttons to extend/retract, it's A and D on your keyboard!
thanks, I actually do plan to make it a mobile game. And I forgot that you don't get game's description on jam page.
I really like the concept, and the minimalistic look and soundtrack are great, however I tried every key but the hammer won't retract :(
How does one play? :( I can't find how to pull the hammer in
