Hey there, here's my game Infinite Wheel made for the LudumDare.

In infinite wheel you play as a little orc and you have to avoid some spike to stay alive the longest time possible.

Got the hang of it, it's simple and on theme. I like it!

Good game! I felt like I could go forever, I would increase difficulty by adding another mechanic, like sliding or other type of obstacles.

Yeah i want to do an update to implement an increase of the difficulty ^^
thanks for the feedback !

Very simple but done well! Could have used some sound and increasing difficulty! :)

@lenophie yeah i wanted to add some sound but didn't get the time ^^, i plan to do a little update when the jam is done to add some new element for difficulty increase.

GREAT GAME! I recommend to add another element for the game, maybe sometimes change the player point of the direction from the right to the left, the same for opposite.

Nice and simple ! May be you could have put some sound when you jump or when this litle "ogre" take a spike !
Congrats

The game fits well with the theme. I would have enjoyed an increase in difficulty while time progresses (for example by speeding up the character, or by adding new things to avoid). Also, I think I found two little bugs (which are not very problematic for enjoying the game): (1) once I got two spikes stuck with three spikes, making five spikes in a row, which I think can't be avoided, and (2) when I get a new score it replaces the score at the corresponding position instead of shifting all the scores below.

Great take =) congratulations! I'm not good with that kind of games, but managed to get to 40s. Then I dropped off the wheel, unable to tolerate more than 5 spikes. Liked the character animations, btw.

@loig thanks for the feedback and bug report, i saw the highscore problem 5 minutes before the end of the time xD and for the 5 spikes in a row i maybe missed a calculation of my patterns ^^

Clean and clear concept that has been well executed with simple but well made art assets. A good amount of challenge (not too easy, not too hard).

I think some jaunty background music and sound effects would have greatly enhanced the mood. Also, perhaps starting slower and increasing the speed of the wheel over time might have added a little variation.

Overall, great work! Good job.

Nice game! Its a simple idea but fits very well to the theme and is nicely done! The small orc is cute! I suck at these kind of games, so my longest run was 32s ^^''''

Fun little game, worked well. Could do with some more elements to change things up and ramp up the difficulty. Love the character animation too.

Simple yet challenging! Nice works! Maybe it will be more challenging if the wheel will spin faster and faster... ^_^

@yword Thanks for the feedback ^^, there's an updated version in the download with the wheel spinning faster and faster xD
