  • Updated the Sprite-font so it is not the default font. Now uses the same font as the Title and Buttons.

    +1 to blackhornet and the Sprite Font Generator.

  • Haha. Everybody loves cute animals making funny faces.

  • Love the art style! The graphics work very well with the game-play.

    5 stars.

  • Game:

    Pinwheel is a one-directional, side-scrolling, 2d platformer, where you control a pinwheel. The levels are randomly generated, and extend infinitely in one direction. Every level offers a new and unique build, which provides for challenging and rewarding fun.

    After you have collected a set amount of coins, you can unlock different seasons that add a refreshing look to the game play. You can also unlock new colors for your pinwheel in the store.

    In the level, there the three different kinds of traps: spikes, mines, and saws. There is 15 unlockable colors and 4 unlockable seasons.

    There are multiple layers that are used to add depth to the game, and coins that spawn randomly throughout each level.

    This game is cross-platform, and works on both mobile phone, and computers.

    Platform:

    I plan to release the game to the Web through clay.io. Windows, Mac, and Linux will be released though http://www.itch.io. I also plan to release to the Firefox marketplace. I would like to release to the Chrome Webstore, possibly once the other planed platforms are released.

    This game is my entry for the http://www.clay.io "Got Game?" student competition. For more information on the "Got Game?" student competition please visit http://www.clay.io/gotgame.

    Use the Arrow Keys, A&D keys, or the Pads to move left or Right. Use the Up Arrow, W, Space, Z or the Up Pad to Jump/Double Jump. Collect Coins and watch out for traps!

    Thanks to sved for the template! Good luck on your game!

  • Whew! I was hoping I wouldn't have to compete against this brilliant work of art.

  • Is this going to be entered in the student competition though clay.io?

  • In the settings of clay.io, you can disable the login menu. You can also use guest accounts for the leaderboards.

  • Just email Austin at if your game is taking a long time to get approved on clay.io

    Good luck..... #justsayin

  • I am trying to make a level editor, and am using the save-files to store the data. To make this method effective, I need to find the location of the save-files. Unfortunately, I don't even know where to start looking. If anyone can help me, I will be much appreciated.

    Thank you,
