How does your game fit the theme?
Game starts with light rain (calm) that slowly escalates into a heavy downpour (storm), increasing the challenge over time.
Beside the narrative of a grill living in peace being interrupted by a storm and fighting it, there also exists the contrast between the calm upgrade sequence and its transition to a literal storm.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, all of the code and art are done by me and all of the audio assets were done by my teammate Fatih Anıl Yıldırım.

This is the pure fun! Awesome job!
I looove it.... sooo freaking adictive....
hehe well done to make us all spend all that time:D
Wow! My 14-year-old mouse burned a hole in my desk. Very cleverly constructed game design. You managed to make a very addictive game. And I think you even completed the Make a game with only particle effects challenge.
The visuals are great. The level texts are funny. The upgrade system also worked well. I really like how the music dynamically adapts to the difficulty level. At first, it bothered me that the background music always started from the beginning and I couldn't listen to it all the way through. Because the cycles are only a few seconds long at the beginning of the game. But then I understood that this is part of the concept.
By the end, the game plays by itself. I also maxed out the upgrade tree.
Great game!
This is insanely good for a game jam! Congratulation on your submission ^^
The game is so catchy I've been playing it for a hour now hahahaha, the only thing that I think of is maybe more powerups? For example, instead of having 1 radius, you have a mirror sphere but you have /2 of your initial radius. Maybe some horizontal evaporators. Other than that, more water droplet types? Some with more health, or in angle instead of vertical. So many opportunities :P do you plan on continuing it?
Thank you!
Although I am not directly continuing to work on this game, I am actively prototyping variants of it to see what works and what doesn't.
I also have an update adding another droplet type, a couple of new upgrades and lots of tweaks ready on the hand to be released after the jam. It somewhat addresses some of your recommendations.
Very nice! I loved it, I'm sure your future projects will be at the same level ^^Good luck
Wow, it's a simple concept, but it's very fun and original!
I loved the art, it is minimalist and very beautiful.
The sound effects and music fit perfectly.
one of the best I've played in the jam! :D
Bloody Brilliant, 10/10/6. i love how seemingly everything was made with particles
I liked the incremental part but I think that at the beginning, you can unlock more features faster. Also, put some "teasers" for new/different stuff so people will want to unlock them.
Very addictive game! Finished it all the way. Really like the amount of powerups you made. Graphics and lighting is so bright wow!
Really cool and easy to understand how to play it, pretty good progression system, enjoy playing it!
Cool idea, very different from other games.
I loved the particle effects and minimalistic style! good game!
Pretty nice upgrade based defense game. I like the upgrade system.
Dude, for the past one hour and a half I only played this game. Good job on it! Only one little issue: "Heat Wave" doesn't all the water drops and I can still get damaged for it(it affects more at the beginning).
Hope that you'll also play mine :) https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690
Unique take on wave based survival with a meta progression system. Nice graphics, solid mechanics, feels like a complete commercial game, great job.
This game is definetely one of the best of this jam. I only wish you place it in android play market so i could kill time when i need to kill time. The amount of upgrades is staggering. My only criticque is that if you move too fast you don't kill most of the droplets, but i understand it's related to limits and it is symbolical in the way, you can't control the water slipping off your grip. Good job!
Good news (or not because that symbolism won't be possible anymore haha), I have a after-jam patch ready on the hand that addresses not being able to kill droplets when you are too fast, along with some other changes. You can check out the changelog here: https://samethope.itch.io/storm-grill/devlog/803428/update-v080rc-v082rc
I am really happy to hear you enjoyed the game :)
Great game, love the graphic
Amazing game!
absolutely loved it 10/10
really good UI and very creative idea of a grill in a storm also the audio was really fitting to the different fire effect/attacks
Loved this game! Visuals are simple but so effective, gameplay loop is highly satisfactory with amazing level-ups. Stunning entry!
I guess I WONNNN!!
Pretty clean and publishable game. The play through is flawless. Really appreciate the execution of the idea :D
Kudos!!! Congrats for making such a fun game..
