A Quick Little Game made for Ludum Dare 47 and the theme was stuck in a loop, a loop is similar to the shape of infinity and then I came up with this game. You have to get your high score in a given time which is around 1 minute.

The controls:

Tap on the little entities to get them stuck in a loop. Try to get a high score. Mine was around 105 or something

If the game does not work or you are on another platform just install the source zip file, the game was made in python 3.8.5 using pygame==2.0.0.dev12 and you can always just install them.

The only thing which was not created by me was the text assets which were from https://managore.itch.io/m5x7

I hope you enjoy the game!

It's simple but it works. The theme implementation is quite thin but it does not really matter. It could be better with some music, I think. (i made 109 points)

125 here. Not gonna lie, I had to play it again so I could beat myself xD. Good work! With some particles and polishment, you can make something very adicting!

@hadryel I really think that I should have added particles indeed but that was something I tried implementing and failed but I am gonna try that some time. Just wanted to ask what do you mean by polishment so like I know what you are talking about rather than just particles so I know what I need to improve on for later games.

121 is my high score. Really nice, but gets repetitive real quick. Some variation would be nice, like entities that you should not click on or moving targets.

It plays well, but I agree that I don't see the theme connection. The description mentions the infinity symbol, is that what the object in the center is suppose to be? I couldn't tell if the entities were spawning around it in any particular way.
This will be a good warm up for playing Dota :) thanks!

@fronwewq yup the object was the infinite looking object, thank you for your feedback!

Hi there! Managed to get a score of 150. Good job on finishing this for the jam. It'd be great if there was more feedback when you clicked on characters and some additional mechanics (like characters you can't click on), but I totally understand this is a jam and nobody ends up adding everything they'd want to.
