Magnificent concept

Funny game, good job! I just think I could have a bit more difficulty here, it felt too easy despite the health bar. But that’s just a preference, the game is cool

It was fun to wander as tornado and destroy everything (just don't tell my shrink).

I liked the visual style - it has it's dark side of the old Disney stuff.

Reflecting therapists evaluation as given bonuses is original.

Nice job!

Liked this one, I enjoyed the hand-drawn art style: it all felt very consistent! The movement of the tornado was very unique, I can feel that in my wrist :D

In the first level, my health and progress meters were not working though, not sure what went wrong there.

Maybe as an addition you could have some additional powerups on the maps? That would spice up the gameplay a bit more.

Good job finishing this one!

you've understood everything we were going for, we originally planned to have powerups spread around the level but we decided to focus on polish rather than content near the end.

Thank you <3

Good game! I love the art style and destroying the environment felt very satisfying. The game feel does slightly suffer from the controls, I had to lift my mouse up a lot even with the highest sensitivity. But other than that, the game was very well polished, fun, and serious. Well done!

I did not think that I would ever play as a druck addicted tornado, but here I am. I honestly had a blast playing this game. The artstyle and musik reminds of of looney toons and the seriousness of it. Only the controlls are a bit unresponsive some times, but thats just a minor issue, at least to me.

I liked this game the art style is so good and reminds me of don't starve. I think it was fun to destroy things as the tornado, although I hate moving with my mouse, why can't I just use wasd??

The therapy sessions are such a wacky and weird idea to attach to this game, I love it!

Developer

we use the mouse to make you feel like the tornado we did mose pos, but to ez so we did the mouse dalta. Glad you liked it

Very satisfying to play, although the controls are a little awkward (wish there was a way to pull up settings while playing, to edit the mouse sensitivity). I like the therapy subplot, as well as its possible connection to the tornado.... Game could use more visual/audio cues, such as some way to indicate building health, or a way to portray when the goal is met beyond just the progress bar (reaching the goal and being transitioned to the next level always felt sudden since I was focusing on the tornado the most). Repetitive but fun!

Really cool game. I loved how the buildings and objects would have small remains showing your destruction. I only wish there were more levels. Overall great game.

A game about a tornado? that's likely the most ingenious concept I've come across so far lol. But for real, the music was so good and I really love that top-down 3d effect you got going on. Had a lot of fun cruising around as a tornado and wrecking stuff. The vintage toon style was done very well.

Thanks for giving it a shot, the time did a great job

I adore this game! The art style is really nice and the music is SUPER groovy. It was fun playing the two levels (farmland and wild west), although I was a little confused on how to move the tornado consistently, and taking down buildings took some extra effort...but still, my favorite jam thus far! Maybe as an obstacle, you can add "storm chasers" and their news broadcasts alert people to evacuate?  Or knocking them down gives extra points.

Yoo had lots of fun moving around in that evil tornado. Pretty fun

Fun game, I love the weird looking cows! Thought definitely went it this, some buildings require a little extra effort for Jeremiah to destroy. Well done guys!

I love the concept, art, audio, story, this game would be amazing if it wasn't for how bad the controls are. The movement seems fun on paper but I feel slow and it hurts my wrist. This would be easily cheesed by maxing out the DPI on my mouse, and It would be impossible to play with a small mouse pad.

This was a blast!
Loved the concept and art, and the upgrade therapy sessions were fun to play out, plus the remedy bottles for upgrades made me giggle. Fun simple game-play loop that had me surprisingly invested and wanting to continue. I think you could add certain traps or roadblocks and it would elevate the gamey feel that is already pretty ingrained in the design. I think the design choice of roads leading you to pockets of destruction is smart and helps the player a lot. Overall a really great project!

Artwork looks great!
