How does your game fit the theme?
You have a calm period, where you have to build power ups, and then a storm incoming, and have to survive. Then, another calm, before another storm.
Well, another LOG STORM!
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the code is mine, but i've bought some 3D models and sound effects (i'm just a solo programmer)

Interesting game, chaos everywhere!, first I thought I could just hide behind the house, but before I knew it another storm appeared behind me in the 4th wave! & sometimes I went flying above the map lmao, anyway, good job on pulling this out in less than 7 days A_Nib :v
Hi I have played and rated, if you can rate mine. Thanks, liked the game feel and art style, kudos on the sound effects too!

Fun game! I enjoyed getting buried in logs
Liked the art style - felt a bit confused on how to add more shields, but avoiding obstacles and logs shooting at me from tornadoes was fun!
Nice submission! Wish the transitions between the calm and storm were smoother/more telegraphed. The shops need to be more clear as well
Nice work!
I love the chaos of it! Sometimes it was missing some guidance and I was confused a lot but it was fun haha
It was really fun to play and see the logs flying all over the place. The jump physics were crazy, I loved!! Good job!
Feedback:
Maybe there could be some indicators of where is the shop, when the tornados are gonna spawn...
Great game! I loved watching the logs fly everywhere. I also didn't notice the shops at all, took me a few games to realize I could buy things.
Yep, i know, this is the major issue i think :(
Happy you enjoyed it!
the game is pretty nice and as a game coming from a solo developer its good enough i think.
i dont think you could do this in the course of 7 days alongside what you have already made in game but i think it would have made a lot of difference if you had a nice ui, and if you had an indicator for the weather change and stuff like that...
but on the other hand, its not bad at all and if we compare it to a lot of other games submitted to this jam, its pretty good!
Ty for your kind words!
Maybe after the Jam i will improve the UI, and other things thanks to the community feedback!
Interesting concept, but the problem is that the only your defence is the house or VERY SHORT-TIMED shields. So, you sit behind the house in safety because tornados don't go behind house at much, or you try to play the hardest ever rhythm-game ever by spawning shield a milisecond before log hits you. I think, you could add some buildable obstacles, or give player something of a parry. Or let the player hold the log to defend themselves.
Ty for the feedback!
Holding the logs to parry could be a great idea!
sadly i can not play this game on a Mac, however i gave a rating based on info and screenshots :)
ty, i'm sorry, i was only able to upload the Windows version
That was a very fun game, I really like the character controller, the jumping felt powerful, and it was extra fun getting super jumps when colliding with logs with a shield on. I do wish the shops were a bit more obvious, as I didn't realize you could get shields or heal until wave 5 on my first playthrough, and it would have been nice to have an indicator that the storm was coming. Really great, I had a blast playing this one.
Ty for your kind word!
Yeah i know, the shop is not obvious, but i'm very happy you had a good time playing it!
Hee-ho. Funny game)
ty!
I enjoyed it, but a timer between the storms would be nice, just so i wouldn't get surprised by them spawning right next to me while i'm deciding to heal or to get some shield haha
Nice job !
Yeah you're right, i thought It could help in making the storm completely unexpected (and set the Mood of the game)
Tu for your feedback 🔥
