I think the randomizer is working as intended, but it's just that true randomness doesn't actually feel random.\r\r@novotmike There are 4 minigames (push the other player off, collect 5 squares, do two laps around a track, and king of the hill). But now that you mention it, it's probably a good idea to guarantee that all minigames are seen in any given match, so if we work on this some more we'll put that in."},{"author_name":"Chris0903","author_uid":"112934","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 8:03am","epoch":1472543880,"text":"It's pretty good.

I don't have anybody nearby that i could play with, but I'll definetly check it out with some of my buddys.

Good job. But rotation of characters a slightly too fast, it's make it hard to control. Match result become more random than skill based.\rAlso, stuck on level with laps.

You both start off as triangles, and compete in a series of simple minigames. If you win a minigame, your polygon gains one side. To win, get to 8 sides.\r\n\r\nNote: We originally brainstormed some ideas in which you started off as a triangle and eventually became a wheel (or circle), which turned into this. It doesn't relate much to the original theme, but you can imagine some backstory in which a bunch of shapes are competing to become the first-ever wheel. This game also uses a lot of mathematics\/physics, which I'd say is a prime example of ancient technology. :P This is also the first game we've ever made, so we hope you have fun and would love any feedback.\r\n\r\nControls\r\n\r\nPlayer 1\/yellow polygon: WASD\r\n\r\nPlayer 2\/green polygon: arrow keys\r\n\r\nMade in HaxeFlixel.","title":"Force of Wheel"}
