I can place builings over bulldings over buildings? Seems like a bug but anyway also to easy? I just lpace everything randomly and repair stuff during the storm got up to 10.000 in storm 5? seems unbalanced but great concept, nice art. :)

Out of the hex-based games I played, this is one of the most polished. The mechanics and art match perfectly. Congrats!
What an interesting concept. I really like this. It encourages a lot of experimentation and creativity combined with strategic placement. The art was also fantastic. Very nice looking and cohesive style. The effects were also great. I do think there is some balancing to do, but that only makes sense with a 1 week jam. Something I wasn't sure of was how the storms would arrive. Was it based on number of cards played or was it a timing thing?
Either way, I really enjoyed it, and played it a bunch of times.
It's a fun tile-based construction game. I hope it'll be refined and released later
Nice game! A lot of different mechanics, both with the buildings and the weather! With some balancing and tweaks I feel this could become a pretty deep game
Well done!
Absolutely solid! Loved the variety to the storm and different strategies to defend against it.
Incredible video game, very good sound effects and graphics. Everything is excellently done; it's amazing that you were able to create all of this in such a short time. The dirty Sand effect was one of my favorites.
Nice game! Everything, like art, music, aesthetic are pretty coherent. Super polished game
Absolutely love this game, super polish and on point on all interactions !! It's quite intricate but everything information is communicated clearly, graphics are amazing, well done ! (my fav of the jam so far !!)
Liked the graphics and audio! Nice job, and the gameplay is solid too. I love the wind effects. I agree with the general balance comments. If you were able to destroy ruined tiles (maybe for a price) and the storms started small, but ramped up more intensely each time, it might make for a more fast-paced (and possibly more engaging) gameplay loop.
you're probably right. We couldn't allow players to destroy the tiles as the "grid" is formed wherever you place the first tile, it doesn't use any built in systems. So if you were to break a tile between two "islands" it may break more gameplay. However, there are ways around this like ghost tiles.
It's a good idea though, especially destroying for a price. (A high price ;) ) we just didn't have time to explore our options :)
This looks, sounds and feels great to play! Definitely needs more balance though, as it was pretty easy to reach a point where the town is pretty much indestructible. I'd love to see this expand further after the jam is over!
I like this. The design is good and except for the stacking bug, things were pretty clean. It bothers me that I can't remove the rubble of destroyed buildings, but I understand the desire to keep it in to show the danger. I originally thought the game was hard but you earn plenty to not have to worry about money things if you're placing your tiles well. Great game and atmosphere!
Instructions unclear, Achieved perfection, did I win?

It is now 2 AM... I have been playing for an hour straight, but I achieved PERFECTION!
Here's a link to a video: https://streamable.com/t1ft01
wow that is Impressive. You've dominated the whole map. I'm so glad you're enjoying it. Even if the wind rotated around I feel like you'd be posting a clip of the entire map surrounded in wind defences.
But, I'm curious.
What was the performance like with this many structures? Like, when the end of day money was collected? Do you remember the amount of money you got from all those buildings?
Really like the hex layout you went with for this! The setting and the tiles you came up with to match were super fun to build with. I did feel like it's a bit too easy to get established and then the fun kind of dies down a little after that, but I had fun for quite a while!
Really cool and solid game overall for this jam! The gameplay loop is well thought out and the audio sounds great overall. I would definitely love to see this expanded more. Great job!
Great aesthetics and sound here, was a lovely experience to play through. If I had to find a critique I would say that I found the game started to play itself sooner than I expected? I reached about 40 days with over a million income sitting there and not really sure what to do, since most things were surviving multiple storms and all I had to do was slam down everything, protect them occasionally and repair as the storm was happening.
Nice game! Reminds me of a fave game of mine, Into the breach. Graphics look really nice. GG
Cool concept, nice art and fun game. Gets really addictive ranking up those funds! ;-)
I encountered a bug: I reached day 16, bought a "Lightning Rod" but did not place it. Then day 17 came, I opened the shop again, and at some point the "Lightning Rod" card disappeared (or maybe I accidentally placed it?) and I could not place my next card "Farmland". I waited till day 20, but I still could not place it. Also swapping the cards in my hand (for 1500 coins) did not work, so I got stuck.
