SPIN - An Unexpected Sensation

note: this is a repost of the devlog written by SolsticeMage. Going forward devlogs for SPIN (working title) will be posted via Posh Sloth Productions. We want to make sure all of our followers can be notified of all future updates!

AN EARLY AND UNEXPECTED HIT

What started as just a placeholder page for the 2025 Boss Rush Jam has turned into an instant sensation! In just the first 24 hours of the 30-day game Jam, SPIN has hit over 300+ views and inspired over a dozen comments!

THE INSPIRATION

Our Game Designer was still traveling back from Florida for the holidays when the theme was announced:

GOING FORWARD

We intend to take the development of our game seriously, and make a competitive entry for the Boss Rush Jam. The alligator is not the central feature in our vision for the game. That said, we don't want to disappoint our fanbase so we've decided that, even though it won't be a focal point of our game, THE SPINNING ALLIGATOR WILL CONTINUE TO BE FEATURED! This way we can keep the meme alive, and still deliver a competitive entry for the 2025 Boss Rush Jam!
