    Invent the Wheel

    Games

    Reinvent the wheel

    A creative mini-game, in which the player draws a wheel (or something similar) that should reach the bottom of the slope as quick as possible.

    The game was developed for LudumDare 36. «Ancient Technology» was the theme. By the way, it was a favourite for our team among our previous 72-hour projects!

    Due to the continuously positivie community feedback, we decided to continue development (which is still work in progress).
