Nice idea! I found it to be a bit confusing trying to understand on which side of the tornado I'm on, but the bar is already a big help. It's really fun, the tornado is well animated and I love the fact that you can get hit by the different kinds of debris.
Overall, a very well done game! My high score is 2650 points :3
Very cool concept. the surfing system seems unclear to me, i have no idea what that bar next to the charcter is used for, but it feels good, when i figured it out a bit.
Very cool visuals, I really like both the tornado and the player character!! I got around 3000 in score, and thought it was pretty easy to stay up once you got the hang of riding the tornado :b
I think that this has potential to become so fricking cool by adding some kinda tricks with sound effects that you can do while riding for extra points, or some kinda items that trigger some event to spice up the gameplay [:
Would love to see a update with the tricks!
The visuals are really nice. Also the fits the theme very well
The gameplay is not clear at first, but you get the hang of it. When you know what to do, it is not that difficult to stay afloat almost forever.
Also, the ambient noise you picked really fits the vibe of the game. (my highscore was 3321 :))
Well done
I like the visuals and the look of the tornado. Actually riding the tornado took a bit to get. Overall good tho, nice job!
c'était tro bien
i've ride it like an horse, congrats for ur game, btw don't forget tu play mine( plz [: )
I love all these tornado games! The dithering in general was really nice and specifically the way it was implemented with the LOD look really cool. I got a highscore of 2643.
The game is cool but it took me a while to realize how to actually ride the tornado. Otherwise really nice!
The game looks nice, even though I’m not a fan of the shader/camera effect that makes everything harder to see. Where the game really shines is in the concept and the gameplay. Surfing a tornado and marking points is a great mix of fun and a good fit for the jam theme.
Sick ass game, loved riding the storm and got a high score of about 1800. I think the game could benefit from some more sound effects and music and the camera is a bit funky, but I still enjoyed the heck out of this and could see myself playing this for ages trying to rack up a high score. Good job!!
Cool idea. The camera lock and shader made it quite hard to visually understand what was happening at times, which made it mostly guess work when you are supposed to be orienting yourself in a 3D space.
It feels like it isn't far from being a fun and chill game though, I would love to do some rad tricks in the storm and shout it's stormin' time.
Wow, really cool game idea! I like the kind of "make your own fun" feeling of this, I feel like I could just relax and sit here and try get the coolest storm tricks. One thing that I would like to mention is that since I am so far away from the player that I'm controlling, I didnt have a very good depth perception, and often fell due to not knowing how close I am to the perimeter of the storm.
It's kinda fun to play, and the player model is great. But i do have an issue with the camera movement: when you 'ride' the tornado you can't directily move your camera (at least i couldn't) and it can be hard to tell how deep you are into the tornado. Once you fell - you almost lose control, it can be a feature, but i think having an ability to get back on track would be amazing. Very serious game!
