10/10 on the theming and well polished, can tell work was put in
Thanks so much!
That means a lot to me coming from you! You made my favorite (by far) game at the first jam I ever did! Last year's Halloween jam where you submitted ISCREAM CO. It actually heavily inspired my last game before this, a hotdog cart simulator game, lol. I'll definitely be checking out your submission this time too!
I really enjoyed this game! Did not really know what to think for the first couple of minutes, but fixing up the shack was definitely satisfying. The thunder clap scared me a little bit.
I think you did a really good job with the audio on this - it all seems to be tuned very well.
One small thing that I think could make a huge difference - if the shack level/heat level/food level were shown throughout the game, the player would have some idea of what they are headed towards.
Great job!
Thank you for the feedback!
Cool atmosphere, good sound design. One of the few quality games that really fits the jam theme! Bravo!
Thank you so much!
Hi there, I love the hand-drawn art style like this. It looks cozy at the first 5 min but not when the storm coming. Good job on this one man.
Thanks!!
The visuals and sound design were excellent! Also the impending storm was really well done
Thank you!
It was fun! I liked the mechanics of improving the cabin, it gives me motivation to complete its construction haha.
On the other hand, the music and sound are well implemented, and I liked the art style.
Great job! :D
Thank you so much!
That was a lot of fun! The concept overall was great and well polished and the art was a nice personalized touch. My only feedback is to have some sort of indicator that shows when the inventory is full. I spent a whole run collecting everything only to realize that I could only hold 4 things. Didn't stop me from trying again though!
Thank you for the feedback! I agree 100%, that's a needed addition lol. I'm glad you gave it another chance!
Astounding concept, love it. Now it's ur turn to try & vote us. Thank u
Thank you!
And sure, I will add your game to my list to play and I'll be sure to get to it before the end of the jam!
Thank u so much, i will be waiting
Wow this games art style and music really goes well together to create a survival based atmosphere! Those loud thunder sounds really started to hit later into the run. I enjoyed upgrading my little shack in hopes to make it throughout the storm! Congrats!
Thank you!!
I really like the art style and the gradual buildup of the storm, much cooler than just using a text countdown. The music and audio is also good.
Thanks so much!
loved the game! it was fun to play and made me wanna do it again when i died!
the only thing i would want is for it to have an indication for when the inventory is full and theres nothing going in it, because i collected lots of wood and then went back to the house and found out i have none of it lol...
aside from that i loved the unique artstyle of the games graphics and also the audio of it and overall it was a pretty cool game!
Thank you! And yeah lol I definitely need to make that change, I've had a few people mention that.
A very good game!
i thought my inventory was unlimited so i kept trying to hoard food, wood and stone and was surprised when i didnt have anything. got a 120/100 on my second run though.
Thanks! And yeah lol the inventory limit and lack of indicators as to when it's full have been mentioned by a couple other people, definitely something I will need to fix if I keep working on the game.
Very cool! Pretty fun, and it fit the theme well! Good job!
Thank you!!
That was a nice little experience! Love the way the clouds slowly get darker and the rain pours harder, quite stylized! Made it feel very natural!
Thank you so much!
This game is amazing!! The art style and gameplay are great and I would definitely play a full version of this
Thanks so much, that's so cool to hear!
I agree with another comment, this is a good concept to expand and make a bigger game. It was very fun to play
Thank you!! We're definitely considering it!
I liked to art style. All elements of the game fit well together. Audio is just great
Thanks so much! I put a lot of work into balancing the different parts of the storm audio throughout the game, it's so cool to see people noticing it!
The first time I my shack collapsed, the second time I died of hunger, but on third try I succeeded! This concept could work for a bigger game, where the storms would get bigger and bigger.
At first I thought it would have been nice to know what I needed to survive the storm - but then again the uncertainty prevented me from feeling too safe, took a couple of risks, and made me enjoy the game more.
Thank you, this comment makes me really happy!
Great game, I honestly found it quite entertaining. The art, given the time available, is decent, but more importantly, it all has complete coherence when putting everything together. The only thing I would criticize is that I wish the stamina recharged faster. To be honest, this is my kind of game, and yours kept me entertained a lot. Good job!
Thanks for the feedback!
Really liked the art! The idea was good and fit the theme well! Only complaint I would have is just a bit better UI and indicator for when some things were happening, but overall nice job!
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback and I agree with it. If we continue to develop this game after this we will definitely be improving those things.
