Circolo

Circolo is a roguelike wheelbuilder where players must climb toward ever-increasing scores through strategic wheel manipulation, clever item use, preparation, and a touch of luck.

This project was originally developed for Brackeys Game Jam 2025.2. While the jam version is a very early prototype and is missing a lot of things —like a tutorial, balancing, animations, and some sounds—we’re continuing development to fully polish the game.

🌀 How to Play

• Your goal is to reach the final boss and win. The timeline on the left shows your progress.

• Press Spin (or Spacebar) to spin the wheel. If you have a brake installed, press again to apply it.

• A score multiplier grows with each consecutive color landed.

• Charms trigger whenever score is applied, while bosses activate their abilities at the same time.

• After every boss fight, visit the shop to buy/sell items and charms or upgrade your wheel.

• Each wheel section has pegs. Pegs physically slow the wheel, so placing (or removing) them strategically helps you influence spins.

💌 Closing Note

This was our very first game jam! It was exhausting at times, but incredibly fun and rewarding—we’re proud of what we built in just 7 days.

A huge thank you to Brackeys and to all the participants—finishing a game in 7 days is always an achievement. We’re excited to keep building Circolo into its full vision and can’t wait to share more with you soon. ❤️
