How does your game fit the theme?
There are periods of Calm before the storm.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes I did, I made all the code and all of the sprites, however I did download all audio files from Pixabay.

Such a polished game! The SFX are great, the pixel art is great, the gameplay loop was great, and so on. I really think this is a perfect example of a game MADE for a Jam. The partials were nice along with everything else. My only suggestion: WAY LESS DIFFICULT. The game was CRAZY hard, even on easy mode. I once heard someone say, "Make the game to the difficulty YOU would like. Then, since you will always be better than most players at your game, make it three times easier." Overall, 9.5/10. Sadly, I cannot rate because I did not submit our game. If you would like to play our game (please do), here is the link:
Rate FRACK! by woutan for Brackeys Game Jam 2024.2 - itch.io
keep in mind that the export size was incorrectly submitted (we are new devs and this our first Jam), so you may have some difficulties with the screen size (the text is up there!). Your Game was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!! Definitely one of my top pics for the Jam.
I played this game a few days ago, and I came back to it a second time because it is really fun (also I forgot to rate it)! Unfortunately, I cannot make it past wave 2, I just get so battered on wave 1 most of the time.
I feel like part of the difficulty (on normal at least), is the scarcity of wrenches which helps massively with enemies and dealing with projectiles. Maybe also have throwing wrenches destroy bullets in their path as well as enemies?
Regardless, its such a fun experience - great job!
Thank you for your feedback! Glad you enjoyed it!
This was fun to play, love how the tiles break over time adding more stress to the storms danger.
It was a bit difficult to stay alive but insanely fun to try.
An outstanding creation!
The game's polish was immense
The emergent strategies are fun to plan around
The concept is rather unique
It was fun to run around trying to keep your platform safe
It fits the theme pretty perfectly
The pixel art was very well done
The music and sound effects were super nice and fit well with the game
The difficulty is absurd though - easy mode was already a challenge and so I tried hard mode and I'm like 80% sure the game is unbeatable on hard mode. If I had to add one thing, it would be more gems appearing on harder difficulties to balance out the fact that your board was practically unsavable due to not enough resources.
Again, one of the best entries in the jam, great job!
Thank you for your feedback! I am sorry about the hard difficulty and agree with you that it is probably impossible. I had planned to spend the last day of the jam working on bug fixes and balancing, but instead spent it adding the audio lol. Once the jam is over though I definitely plan to balance out all the difficulties for sure!
