Humanity faces extinction at the hands of a mysterious foe. 

Harnessing the power of the SPIN, what remains of humanity has forged its final weapon. The revolutionary war machine: SPINBUSTER. 

Pilot the Spinbuster. Destroy the enemy. Keep the Earth spinning.

This game was developed in three weeks as an entry for the Boss Rush Jam 2025 using SPIN as its central theme.

TIPS

The Spinbuster's charge attack has three levels. The first level, while weak, can help you destroy bullets in a pinch. The second level is a great mid-distance dodge, while the third level packs the hardest punch.

Don't underestimate your base movement. While slow, it allows for more precise dodging, which is crucial for surviving dangerous bullet barrages.

Tried to click in hopes of speeding up the slow intro text, and instead it skipped the whole intro... Not good.

yo thank you for the feedback! the intro has a certain timing to go along with the music and i added a way to skip it for those who don’t want to watch it everytime, think of it as a cutscene rather than dialogue.

i thought that’d be good enough, but i’ll look for a way to speed it up without skipping it entirely.

Its seems to slow down to a completely unplayable state. Once it gets past the intro into the intial cut scene its maybe averaging 5 fps.

The game screen is larger than my screen, and when I press the fullscreen button, it just aligns the top left corner to my screen and chops the rest off.

sorry to hear that! the game is locked at 1920x1080 resolution due to time limitations.

once the jam period finishes, i’m planning to upload a Windows version with resolution settings and an adaptable web version.

EDIT: this has been updated, along with resolution options.

ty for the feedback! indeed, WASD is mostly for strafing and dodging bullets. the game can be played with one hand if you’re good enough.

Really fun, I love Gyra. Super good music 

Thank you, glad you liked it!
