Its very hard controls, but Its a lot of fun! And the models are amazing ofc! I like that you took the time for this nice menu screen in the beginning and the animation. Also good use of the default cube! \nI actually don't know whats on the end of the circle but somehow I had in my memory it was a spiral? Good game! Good Quality!

What better to do than run head-long into it and explode? Of course, it's even better when you re-spawn, looking at the conflagration of your last death, only to do it again. :grin:\n\nSuffice to say, this game brought me joy.\n\nI found the controls a little to touchy for my own tastes, but then I'm a terrible at games like this, so I'm not a very good judge. The graphics were well polished and I'm curious to look into your code for generating circular levels.\n\nIt would have been interesting to introduce other flying things like dirigibles, but I guess, since you have floating presents, that works too.\n\nThanks for sharing!","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Diefleder","author_uid":"1212015","time":"2020-10-05T03:27:38Z","epoch":1601868458,"modified":1601868458,"text":"That moment when you finally unwrap a present. :joy: ","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"BumDag","author_uid":"1078239","time":"2020-10-05T12:17:13Z","epoch":1601900233,"modified":1601900233,"text":"You are amazing.

So much attention has been given to the particles, the aesthetics, really liked it! The arcadey sound effects were great too. I'm not sure I'm fully on-board with the controls' low sensitivity, but I think that's more a matter of preference. Also, I think it might work better without the lives altogether. The lives add to the arcade feel, but every time I reached Game Over I was just frustrated to not have an instant restart, but that's also maybe more a preference kinda thing.
