Good take on the theme. Game was fun. :)

Very fun and a breath of fresh  air with all the potion games. Idea and execution were great and I had a blast wreaking havoc on the islands. Thanks for the game!

Loved the game however at a certain point the tornado wasn't pulling the trees/humans/houses anymore. Everything else is great!

Developer

That's weird, but glad you liked the game!

I like the bowling Wii style mechanics and retro style! (Is Wii already retro??) It's simple yet fun and easy to pick up, casual game. Very good!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it!

The game is giving me pineapple on pizza vibes but I like the bowling-tornado simulator! Was a bit hard at times to know how cleared the island was and what was it counting but the picture on the left that progressed through stages helped a bit. Also was nice that all powerups refresh between runs. Overall a really clever idea :)

Thank you! Glad you had fun :D

It was fun!Control of the camera was a struggle at the beginning. 

Developer

Glad you enjoyed! Just for the future, were they unintuitive or was it the camera switching the problem?

Submitted(+1)

I figured late the shorcut for switching camera, so the first time it was daunting. And for some reason it was confusing to me. Like, when you release the storm, the camera switches. I think is a matter of play style? Maybe some people wants to play using the inside storm camera, others the top view.

Alright, Thanks for the feedback!

Awesome game! I was suprised how many level this has (even if some repeat). It was cool to clear the islands. I only wished the game woulld remember the camera settings for the stormsince I always just wanted to use the top down camera to have an better overview.

But for the theme... come on a brewing storm, who would do somthing like this... (cough)

Developer

We almost named our game "A storm is brewing" as well! Would've been fun to have the same name

Thanks for the feedback! We didn't want much to repeat but jams are hard to make levels quickly for as you know, but they turned out nice! Thanks for the camera feedback, I'll remember that for the future :D

The camera switching, soundeffects and animations were all really nice. The screams were really funny and the upgrades actually felt useful. Also there was something really satisfying about the gameplay overall, everything came together beautifully.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed our game :D

Submitted(+1)

Reminds me a bit of From Dust and a bit of Sim City terrorizing residents with natural disasters. I like how much strategy there is both in what upgrades you take and knowing where the best place to end is so you can start the next storm at a good angle. Great work tying all those skills together!

Developer(+1)

I'm glad that you found it to be strategic, jam games are always a bit hard to balance. Thanks for playing!

I like hearing them scream when they fall into the water...

Developer

They're indeed very funny, implementing them was hilarious as well!

Submitted(+1)

Developer

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it!
