Thanks for playing! Rated your game back

Cheers

Thank you very much for trying at least, rated your game back. Cheers 

Thanks for playing!! Rated back 

geberally night time is when the storm hits, and when you advance to the 2nd and 3rd levels there are much more different objects to build with. The general idea is to stay higher than the storm(white indicator) or have 360 cover.

Hey, thanks for playing!

Thanks for the positive feedback and suggestions!! I totally agree that the game loop is too long, I originally planned to add a "Speed up game time" button, but then it started screwing up the music so I decided to give up on it because of the time constraints of the jam. 

I also made some poor choices with the storm's height changes because I originally planned it to be a game where the player builds a barricade (Not making a structure as tall as possible but more 360 cover). When I realized it's not working quite that way I made some last minute changes and it mutated to be what it is now haha. 

Again, thanks for giving it a shot and great feedback! Appreciate it!

Hey, thanks for playing!

To be honest, I owe all the graphics to Unreal Engine Haha. I hope the game was also fun and interesting in addition to the visuals.

Thank you for the positive feedback!!

Hey, thanks for playing!
Indeed it was hard to balance especially since as I was developing the game I realized the whole mechanic of using items for cover wasn't quite working so it started to become more of a height-building game haha. 

I appreciate the feedback and that you really gave it a shot!

Hey, thanks for playing and feedback!

These are some of the most beautiful words I got to read, you really are an amazing writer(Your game has AAA writing potential), and you really made my day!

I do have a tendency to take up on projects that are a bit too big for my shoulders (The rotation system, the collisions and the physics in the engine etc). As I went deeper into the jam and started tweaking those things I realized I got myself into deep waters (literally hehe). But I think the main reason we do gamejams is to learn, and the second reason is to make connections. 
I actually always wanted to make a game like this, ever since the days of playing around with "Garry's Mod" as a kid and also Half-Life's Gravity Gun. ( Hope you know what I'm talking about)
It's far from perfect and my Idea of the Lightning coming in from around the island was breaking down as I was making the game. My original intention was that the player will build a barricade and cover themselves 360. At this point the storm "Shooting" angle was parallel with the floor, but then I realized that if it's parallel with the floor then it's enough for the player to build a barricade in the height of the player and the height of the storm doesn't affect anymore. 
Then it slowly mutated into being more height oriented or whatever it is now hahaha

Hey, thanks for playing!

Haha I thought the first part was the easiest XD that's why we must have play testers in our games

Hey, thanks for playing and positive feedback!

Hey, Thanks for playing!
Sure, I will try "Echoes Before The Storm"

Hey, Thanks for playing!
Thank you for the positive feedback, you killed me with the comment on the chair level XD I thought it was the easiest hahaha

Definitely had the skipping day time in mind, at some point I added a button to speed up the in-game seconds but it started causing problems with the music playback and in the time frame of the jam I decided to give up on it :( Maybe I should have went on a more simple implementation like just starting the storm right away(simple thoughts that come when the mind is not in gamjam-stress-mode). 

The physics and rotation issues are known to me, I didn't understand the complexity before I already went into deep waters into the gamejam ahaha. But it was a good learning experience, and I got to fulfill a bit of my childhood dreams from playing "Garry's Mod" and Half-Life's Gravity Gun hehe. 

Hey, thanks for playing!
Thank you so much for the positive feedback!
I haven't thought about adding mouse sensitivity settings so I'll keep it in mind now :)
I wish you could have advanced to the next levels (Need to stack at least 2 chairs and stand on them to pass the first night's storm\Use other objects in the level to stay higher than the storm line).

Indeed making the ragdoll projectile when the player dies was one of my favorite parts! I feel the game is a bit too slow and too heavy(literally 800 mg) for a gamejam but if I you could enjoy it, that's enough for me!

Hey, Thanks for playing and positive feedback!~
Of course I will try your game too 

Hey, Thanks for playing!
So I've tried to explain the game-loop in the description. 
Basically, there is the Safe-Zone (in the middle of the island). The player may survive only by staying in the safe-zone when the storm hits.
Then when the player is in the safe zone, the storm can enter at every point under the white circle indicator.
So the game is designed in a way that the player must either stay higher than the White Storm indicator or inside it but covered from all angles. 
If you are still interested in giving it another shot, I've got a walk-through video on the game page:

Hey, Thanks for playing!
It's true, the throw mechanic could be too powerful. However, the intention is to be able to collect items around the island and throw them into the SafeZone.
The most precise way to get an items in a wanted place is using pressing 'R' to reset the item's rotation and them setting them by releasing them by pressing 'E' and not throwing. There is also a rotation mechanic when grabbing an item it is possible to press 'Q' to enter rotation mode and try to rotate it to the most precise position. 

Thank you very much for the feedback!
