Very serious "Spin to Win" action!
Trial by Rotation is a fast-paced arena brawler where the courtroom never stops turning. Spin, slam, and survive unpredictable hazards and rival attorneys in a test of timing, positioning, and chaos.
Step into a courtroom where the floor rotates, hazards interrupt the case, and every hit can send someone flying. Last person standing wins! This game was made for The Very Serious Juniper Dev Game Jam, which challenged participants to create a game in 1 week with a tounge in cheek emphasis on 🍭"seriousness"🍭 and the theme "Spin to Win.".
The arena constantly rotates, forcing players to adapt.
The faster you spin the harder you are to displace and the harder you hit.
Spinning hazards attached to the Wheel of Justice and stationary blades create dynamic challenges.
Voiced testimonies add depth to the narrative and create immersive moments in every trial
Built in Unity using C#. Developed around fast iteration, readable feedback, simple controls, and game-jam scope control.
Spinning courtroom arena, movement, knockback and core loop.
Basic AI, win/lose conditions, hazards, sounds.
Weapons, defenses, incremental difficulty, accusations, testimonies.
Particle effects, motion blur, weapon spinners, UI, audio, and balance passes.
Playtesting, final fixes, and jam submission.
Smooth rotation, camera behavior, and knockback balance required repeated testing so the chaos still felt fair.
Fast iteration, visible player feedback, and strict scope control made the game easier to finish on time.
