How does your game fit the theme?
You have to use your time before the storm--the calm phase--to fend off a storm (assault) featuring various storm-themed enemies.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I drew all the art from scratch.
Code was mostly done by me except for KidsCanCode's multitarget camera.
SFX was pulled from freesound.org or generated on sfxr.me. (No AI; just random sound sliders). Music was mostly done by me expect for the main menu music, which was done by ACL_Engineering.
Fonts were from public domain bundles.

Full credits can be found in the game description.

Hee-ho. I like it. Very cool game. Thanks for nice experience

Nice one I enjoyed the coherent a unique art style and the headbutts

Reached wave 10, this was fun! Well rounded, hits all categories well.  If I could add something it would have to just be more content: an upgrade that lets your blocks have a chance of resisting hits, new block types for different orientations of each tetronimo, and variable physics based on the weight of blocks being thrown. That said the clouds were playing tennis with a chunk of wood with my building as the net!

The clouds did that too in one of my playthroughs LMAO
Thanks for playing!

Super Fun Game Keep It Up!

I actually loved this concept, was super fun! I thought I had built this awesome structure only to watch it fall and crush my guy before anyone came haha.

Hilarious. The enemies just head-butting the blocks. I felt myself just spam placing objects to the far left and right to absorb damage. Very unique game. I really enjoyed the theme and sound / music too. Great job! Upgrades were a nice addition.

I love the audio and the concept! Super fun and makes me chuckle.

Really fun game, good job

It's cool that even though you compared this to Tetris, you have to think very differently than when you're playing Tetris. A very unique game.

Thanks for sharing with my stream! Here's the VOD of your game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2256101019?t=02h58m04s

Kinda unfortunate that I missed the stream, but I was just watching the vod and the chat comparing you to the Guy was crazy lmao

Submitted(+1)

yeah man messed up

Submitted(+1)

super fun game! a cool take on tetris thats for sure. nice work :D

Submitted(+1)

So much fun! there was even powerups, enjoyed it a lot. This game is really polished, you squished everything together perfectly

Submitted(+1)

Fun wave managment game!! wish there was a threat that made you have to block of the top!!

Developer

Yeah there's only one but it comes pretty late into the game (it's the second-to-last enemy you encounter lol).

Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Thanks for submitting your game to the stream! If you wanted to look at it again in the future heres the vod timestamped to your game

Thanks for playing!

I clipped the Thunderstomp death specifically because it was super funny lol

I considered it more of an assist enemy than a direct killer (I built roofs)

Submitted(+1)

Amazing! Love everything about this game! Really put a twist on tetris! Art is cool, I'm glad the game doesn't get boring due to new troops and new upgrades. Great job! :D

Submitted(+1)

I like Game art.

Submitted(+1)

Loved the idea! Interesting take on the theme. One thing I think could improve is at least allow blocks to move down and then to a side, for a example, for makeng those L sized blocks fit with each other in a more satisfactory way. Still,  reallygreat entry!


I would also appreciate a rating on my submission if u could!

As someone who loves Tetris, I love this just as much. What a great idea. Fun design although I would prefer a more polished look, but it has a vibe nonetheless. The lack of rotation is an interesting challenge, but I would like to see how it plays out with more tactical placement. But it is veryy fun :)

nice use of tetris 

Submitted(+1)

Great game, I enjoyed the wave system and the music was so fun!

Saw your game in Ategon’s stream! Nice building game! Would be nice if it’s possible to rotate the pieces but considering the complexity of doing proper Tetris I can see why it isn’t added.
