How does your game fit the theme?
The gameworld is set on the midgard-serpent, a never-ending ouroboros-like loop. In combat they use a "looping" fortune-wheel

Great game! Way better then my also it's cool to see that runes meaning match abilities.
Thank you a lot. (: Nice that you noticed the rune meaning. :D
A really well-made game, compact, polished, and visually appealing. As a bonus, there are even two different loops!
Amazing! So well executed, and the use of Jörmungandr was ingenious (I am a fan of God of War and Norse mythology so I was touched).
Very nice concept and really fun to play, love the art and music, awesome work!
Simple but well executed. I enjoyed playing the game. The art and concept are very appealing. Well done :)
Really loved the art style of game! Gameplay was quite simple but fun to play. Using the spinning wheel for combat was also unique. Overall enjoyed the game specially the game's art. Great work!!
love the concept :] and it looks very beautiful — I ended up trying for a strategy of "not having that many runes", which I don't think worked very well. It seemed with the wheel I had that the best way of doing battle was to spam-click to stop the wheel more often which hurt my clicky finger
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2532998626 it was the last game on the stream, forgot to get the starting time :p
Thank you for streaming our game. (:
Cool game, I like the visuals and the mechanic of the wheel is also pretty cool, I like how I can aim it at a specific tile. After a few rounds, I figured that spamming stop button usually gives me great results, because I have more moves than the opponents, and probably this tactic should be fixed. Good game, I always like entries from a fellow planet loop side-scroller fans :)
loved the theme and artwork! very cool combat system
incredible art work and super cool viking theme. the whole game idea is actually facinating too. cool game!
Mirroring a lot of other comments, the art in this is amazing, I like the texture used for the environment which nicely fills in the blank spaces. The wheel adds a nice dynamic and I like that the first spin gives you more control over what you need for that round.
It would be cool if you eventually get powerups that permanently upgrade your wheel spin (make it slower, spin twice, critical damage if you get two/three/four of the same type consecutively etc).
Really fun experience, nice job.
I really like the artwork and atmoshpere, very nice balancing so far!
I love the double usage of the theme. (The map and the wheel) Awesome atmosphere and really cool art. Congrats on this!
My favorite game in this jam so far! The music and graphics were incredibly atmospheric.
Great artwork, solid gameplay loop and good audio! Nice work.
Really polished game , I like the art style ! I found a bug when you kill an enemy and it kills you at the same time, you then continue the run with no health bar thus becoming invincible ^^
Thanks for reporting that! (:
And just as we thought we where relatively bug-free... :D
I love how you use the wheel as a loop mechanics for action selection. Very unique!
I love the game idea, and can see how this game can expand much, much further :D
The current system right now as I see it, encourages players to spam "stop wheel", to ditch out as many actions as possible.
Maybe if the enemy also has a wheel, and player can stop it as well, it would make more meaningful strategy play around when to stop and when not to :D
But overall, great concept, good art and music!
That is an interesting idea! Yeah the stop spam is definitely real right now :D We do have ideas to tackle it in a post jam version :)
Thanks for the lovely feedback!
