Just Keep Spinning
JUST KEEP SPINNING
(First ever game)
Just Keep Spinning is a 2D game where you control a character in a post-apocalyptic world, that needs money for medicine for his sick son. The only option they have left is to cycle/"spin" to generate power for an almighty machine. Every workday gives a small amount of money.
On the second day you meet a somewhat strange, aspiring game developer, who is trying to make you play his clicker game. He offers money for a certain score inside the game. It is for you to decide whether to fully focus on the cycling or multitask and also start clicking.
Please let me know what you did/did not like and how I can improve in the future :)
- Bugs -
(The following bugs are known but could not be patched before the deadline of the game jam)
- If a new day starts, the player can already start clicking on the clicker before the day actually starts
- The day overlay shows up twice on day 2. (Once before dialogue of game developer and once after)

The concept is fun and the graphics are very Papers-Pleasey in the best way <3
I would recommend that the goal is lowered A LOT or there needs to be some other gimmick thing like a little shop with upgrades for the clicker game or such, because right now it's just a grueling experience after the fifth day or so and I resorted to an autoclicker for the clicker because no way I'll subject my hand to around 7000 clicks at minimum (5 coins per day max with 100 needed is minimum of 20 days)
You're totally right. I wanted to add more features but couldn't before the deadline and then forgot to adjust the goal accordingly.
Thank you for the kind words and the suggestion.
