STuck in a loop

eating!

Okay here's the ideas i had, but i'm pretty sure what i want to try to do. This is not a new or original idea, but lets make it one.
Subway loop
halo loop
sonic rings
finger stuck in a ring.

Ok the main idea is this. You are stuck in a loop, haha i mean you get stuck in a golden loop. It needs to be on a wall or something and you poke your head through it to get away from ... something? (maybe the boss?)
and you get stuck in a loop that then rolls around. You can't get out of it, so the goal is to break the loop and get free.

There's all sorts of reasons for this. Maybe I should work on the looping menu? Maybe have the entire menu rotating around the center with the title and all that? sounds kinda neat.
What should I call it? Break The Loop? Ring Roller? Rhino Roller? That sounds funny. You are a rhino and you smash into a wall because ... something? makes you mad? maybe hunters? Might be ... interesting. Hmmmm. anything better than a rhino? Bull Roller?
Maybe you are a Bull? Cow Roller?

well whatever is in the loop is to be determined. ok i need to know this. ONCE this is established I can get started!
current options:
person - engineer.
cow no.
bull - no.
ox - no.
cat - no.
fennec fox - no
rhino - 
red panda -no
Giraffe! yay! the game is called Giraffe Roller! It makes no sense, but we'll jerryrig it because that's how we 'roll'. mybe a baby giraffe?
Stuck in a train loop to start? no sounds like too much a deviation from the initial idea which in and of itself is good. More.



the goal is to break it, so it will have health. The health will go down when some task is completed. Mostly invovling rolling things over. That would be hilarious depending on what you need to roll over. You could end it with some sort of 'boss' and dent your ring. Once finished the ring will break.

Once free you win the game.

This can be a simple first level with boss so you will have a start, a simple thing to complete, a boss, break the ring, and end.

The scaling can happen when you extend the breaking of the ring out over the course of several 'levels'. Just don't need to go crazy. The first and possibly only level will need to be nice and polished if possible. Mulitple levels are not as important as quality in this LD.

ok the level intro: i kinda want a herd of giraffe and a 'hunter' kinda trick the person into thinking their the hunter and going to capture the Giraffes.
but, that's not the case, you are the giraffe. Just need the herd right now. i'll shade them just yellow to red lerpstyle. Let's Go!

So, he goes for you. He will hit you.
He will suck up or kill any other giraffe he hits on his way to you.
once he hits you you will get stuck in his loop. He will drive away to the right.

Focus on the loop goal and theme. that's the goal.
