'''Spinners''', also known as '''crystals''', are circular spike-like objects found in a large variety of chapters, and have different appearances throughout. They aren't attached to blocks as often as regular [[spikes]], but are instead often joined together with other spinners placed closely nearby, forming impenetrable walls. Despite their name, spinners do not spin, or even move at all.

List of entities

Spinners, also known as crystals, are circular spiky obstacles found in all chapters starting from Golden Ridge (except Epilogue). They are not attached to blocks as often as regular spikes, but are instead often joined together with other spinners placed nearby, forming walls. Despite their name, spinners do not spin or even move at all.

Functionality[edit | edit source]

The spinners' hitboxes are bigger and they can kill Madeline from all directions. They often appear connected in large formations, forming deadly traps. Spinners can also be attached to moving entities such as Move Blocks or falling blocks in the vanilla game.

In vanilla, they are usually placed on a grid where their hitboxes have gaps 4 pixels wide. This allows speedrunners or TASes to Demodash through them, although it is pixel perfect and difficult to do consistently without a setup. Certain rooms, such as the final falling room in Reflection B-Side, have slightly wider gaps, forming intentional speedrun paths. The narrow-enough gaps are filled with spinner juice, which is harmless to Madeline.

Spinner Stunning can be used to avoid dying from spinners. Also, by spending about 118 hours on one level, two-thirds of spinners become non-lethal. This is known as Spinner Freeze.

Appearance[edit | edit source]

Spinners are colored depending on the chapter:

Although static dust bunnies in Celestial Resort are technically considered Spinners according to the vanilla game files, they are often called different entities due to their vastly distinct appearance. They may also be demodashed through.
