Goin' in Circles by PimMoeskops
Simple parkour game where you're going in circles
Notes
NOTE: All content was created during the game jam time. (Except for the post-deadline fixes/improvements, which are noted as such)
THEME: Our game tries to match the theme by having the player run (or mostly jump) around in the same circle/torus multiple times, with the parkour changing however
HINT: Some jumps require you to sprint by holding LSHIFT

And I can't figure how to go beyond the second plateform, too bad, it could have a great gameplay behind this :(
The controls of the ball are a bit odd. the inertia might be way to big when in air, and a bit of inertia when on ground could be nice.
My only criticism would be that the mouse sensitivity is REALLY MASSIVELY HIGH and you turn like crazy (even with my mouse sensitivity at minimum)
Additionally, the second powerup confused me, the controls didn't mention shift to sprint (I probably should have assumed so thats a bit on me) and I couldn't make that jump. I did complete the game in the end though!
Good job!
- Way to high dpi.
- Make the beginn easier
- I dont know what the power ups do
- Some soundeffects and music would made the game mutch better .
But Overall I likes the style and the graphics :) Keep going
Thanks for all your feedback. We've made slight adjustments to make it more playable, see above on the page. New download links for the improved version have been added.
