Spin The Wind was a very neat surprise! It's a game style I wasn't expecting and it was rather fun to play. I think there were a few issues I noticed, one being that the payout $$$ didn't seem properly tied to the amount of destruction I did, like the 4th round I started with only 1000~ speed, hit a few buildings, still made $4k in payout. Another small bug, the final mission still awards you a perk but it's details are blank. Small bugs aside, the visuals complimented the game nicely and the UI and controls were easy to navigate.

Overall,  great submission! I think the only thing that would have made the game more "fun" would be if the tornado boosts worked a bit differently, like using them gave you a brief speed up + increased damage, and so there was an importance to timing them / using them right within the duration of your turn. The current mechanism of keeping the tornado alive longer unfortunately just turned into spamming space bar the entire turn to keep it going.

Outside of the review for your game, I enjoyed the story / background of the game with the mayor committing insurance fraud quite a bit as I live in Florida, and a Bowling Alley in my town had actually done this exact same thing with a hurricane! The story I heard is: the owner had burned the bowling alley down the night of the hurricane and tried to frame it on the hurricane for an insurance payout to revamp the place. Unfortunately, he was caught, and the bowling alley never re-opened. Worst part? I had just joined a local bowling team there two weeks before it happened LOL.
