I am struggling to create a circular spinning navigation bar using CSS3 and HTML. How can I achieve this effect? I have attached a picture from an old game that showcases the animation I am aiming for. When the active circle is selected, the corresponding page is displayed. Is there a way to implement this design? What steps should be taken to create this using CSS3 and HTML5.
I have included a code snippet as a starting point, but I need assistance with adding buttons to control the left and right movement of the animation, instead of the current 1, 2, 3, 4 options.
The concept is inspired by SliderDock, a dock application for Windows and MacOS. It seems like this task can be accomplished with CSS3.
