Who Knows by Whom

[raw]
made by Whom for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

I decided to make a loop with circular motion controls for the jam. It is a simple design and should be easy to learn and play.

Collect green dots before the timer ends. Can use the Dpad of some controllers with the bottom action button. On Xbox it is A.game.PNG

Highest ranking(If you want to appear on high score you need to submit a image of full game screen)

Really interesting concept, wish you'd added more levels

Played it for a good while, so it's obviously pretty fun. Super original concept!

Interesting controls. At first I thought hitting walls would be bad so I was extra careful, but then I realized I could just speed around recklessly...

This game is really hard to get the hang of but when you do it is very fun! Well done. I agree that if you slap on some more levels this could be really very cool!

I would suggest continuing with this if you can. Some levels where you have safe ground and places where you can's land would be very interesting. I played around with the controls for a bit and it seems like something you could really get the hang of for some interesting gameplay. Nice job!

Simple and addictive! Would be cool if you put some enemies in it. Nice job!

I think this is the first time I've seen a gravity reversal mechanic that isn't simply a signal change of the gravity constant, that's cool :)

Good game with a different gravity as you circle. At the time of me writing this I have a score of 80...in 3rd place. Addicting gameplay with a focus on getting a better high score. Good job!

It was fun while it lasted~ Never seen a game quite like it.
Did anyone get higher than this yet?

Was kind of addicting. The gravity frustrated me a little, but it also makes sense with how the game goes. I had fun :)

Fun little game, really liked the concept of holding to change gravity instead of just completely switching gravity on pressing space;
Some music and maybe changing levels as time passed may have added to the thrill. Still enjoyed, good job

Interesting basic mechanic, fun to play with. Timer was a bit long; a much shorter timer (like 60-90s) and slightly faster movement would have made me much more interested in playing again and competing for high scores.

The meaning of Spacebar was the inverse of my expectations. This was either an interesting challenge, or a control dissonance, you decide which.

This was nice! Pretty difficult to get the hang off, but fun to try and get the highscore! Maybe add an option to change how to long is. So you have 3 minute, 5 minutes and 9

Broke my brain a bit but it was fun. I would probably add more more level and audio queues (tho you opted out of that so no biggy). Also maybe more respond when pressing space like adding particles or UI elements, but that's up to you :)

Unique concept. It was pretty difficult to get the hang of it. But once I understood the mechanics, the game felt great!
