Cool twist on 2048! I liked how you added strategy and resource management to a simple puzzle game. The art choices and audio was good. It was very enjoyable. The only thing I can criticize is that 50 waves is too long.

How does your game fit the theme?
You need to be calm in the storm, sort things out and build your kingdom to survive waves of enemies. Use the storm wisely to manage resources and defend against enemies!
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Everything except for the art is made from scratch, the free asset I used is Tiny Swords by Pixel Frog

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
Nice little artstyle, I like the overall work. Great Job and Good Luck!
At first i was a bit confused but it was fun! You picked right art for the game, i love the cozy feeling. nice work!
Very cool mechanic! Love the unique integration of 2048 into the gameplay, though it took me a bit to figure out that moving the units costed gold lol. I also didn't notice that you had to use the wind to blow back enemies
This is very cool, the wind mechanic affecting both the structure grid and the map is very interesting and innovative. This game is really solid and highly replayable for being made in 7 days!
The start is surprisingly hard, requiring you to learn what to do near-instantly, as wasting time or making mistakes early will compound later, which is fine I suppose and led to this funny stalemate where I was abusing heavy gold production to keep the snowballed army away (which I suppose I would inevitably lose when the army grows too large).

You should adapt this for mobile I could get sunk into this for hours
Wow how did I not find this sooner!! This game is a gem of a jam, if anything Im only frustrated cos I couldn't reach the Goblin God after an hour of gameplay T-T And you did this alone?? Man, really well done :D
Good job. Only problem is making the lumber yards cost wood. I accidently destroyed mine then ran out of wood so I couldn`t build anymore and I couldn`t get more wood.
This is something i would play on my phone 100%! I loved your idea to mix 2048 with small idle kingdom builders and tower defense. Wanted to play something like this for some time. Good job! But i think some tiles were more stackable than others. Also wasn't clear how to upgrade from 4 guards to more and if it was possible
Liked the game! The enemy troops spawned very frequently so I needed to upgrade the structure quick enough without making all the slots full, it was very enjoyable to try it out!
