Really nice game, specially that it was made by one person. I have a small problem with the screen even on full screen as it was still not showing all the menu but I was able to solve it by reducing the zoom level on my screen. One thing that could be added is make the UI to scale with screen. But I had great fun. love the art too.
Yeah, I haven't thought that itch.io did weird things with the resolution (I supose it's also because I didn't make the UI scale with screen as you say) so I didn't have time to fix it, for next jam I will have that in mind. Thanks for playing!
Congrats on your submission, this is incredible work esp for a solo dev! Simple but really fun! The art is really cute and fits well with the game.
Thank you very much!
Very nice game design with great atmosphere! Good job!
Thanks!
Cool game. Enjoyed it a lot although there didn't seem to really be a use for shelter as I have waisted three wood on it only to not do anything and eat through all my food while the storm was as strong as in the beginning and in the end I just rushed for wood, bridge and to the flag while dodging the storm. Maybe I had a weird luck for generation but otherwise really nice game.
Thanks for playing! I will try to balance better the game in that case, really appreciate the feedback :)
Great game! It did feel a bit repetitive having to click to end turn after all the options were used up, but overall it was really fun!
You could also end turn by pressing space in case you didn't know it (I think it's specified in the tutorial) Thanks for playing!
The game’s visuals are stunning, with an art style that perfectly complements the tone and atmosphere
Thaanks! :)
I think this comment goes to another game, well thanks for playing anyways!
sry that was by mistake
I really liked playing it! It has very fun and addicting gameplay. The art and music is great also!
If you plan to do more work on this already awesome game, keyboard movement and action key binds (like 1-4) would be a very welcome addition. Thanks for the fun!
That could be an interesting improvement, thanks!!!
Very cute art and sfx. Liked the idea and overall implementation.
Gorgeous menu. The idea is interesting. It reminds me Into The Breach in some ways.
Some feedback:
- I would like to have a way to predict where shorm will go
- Also, there is not enough mechanics to prevent player from making silly mistakes (like, going into storm, or chop a tree instead of eating food)
- Maybe there is a balance issue, maybe it's progression. But it seems a little bit harsh at the beginning.
Had some fun playing it. Glad you've submitted such gem to a jam :)
Thank you very much for the feedback, I really enjoyed developing this game so maybe I will extend it in a future having in mind your ideas!
first of all i loved the menu screen and the turn based idea is a cool take on the theme but i wasnt every good at it haha
would you mind rating mine?

I'm glad you liked!! Of course I would rate yours!!
loved the concept I think it needs a bit more balencing but very good game :)
Thanks!!
Wow, really cool idea. The visuals were great, and specially the music was charming. I loved the concept, and the relaxing vibes it had. Good job man!
Thanks for playing!! :)
Interesting game, I kept dying and couldn't finish the game but it is fine, maybe I will try again later :D
Here is my game if anyone wants to try:

Don't worry, thanks for playing the game!! I will try your game when I get the chance :)
I already tried ur game, very impressive, i like the concept and graphic so much. Now it's ur turn to try & vote us. Thank u
Thank you very much!! Hoping to see what your game is about :)
I think the game needs a little bit more balancing but overall I like turn based games so it was nice! Good job!
Yeah, some mechanics are a bit punishing i will try to fix it in later updates, thanks for playing!
It fits the theme! Maybe you can improve the gameplay controls and actions!
Really nice and polished game. The visuals are so nice and easy to catch. Best of luck.
Thanks!!
It is calm and cozy. Music is relaxing and very cute art-style. I think it's a very nice game. Only negatives I have is that it was a bit hard to see initially where I could move. Clicked around a bit and then saw a green tint on the surrounding tiles.
In future I will try to improve that or specify better how movement works in the tutorial. Glad you liked the game :)
Great game! I was not able to move the character
You can only move to the adjacent cells from your position, then end the turn (space or click big button on the right) and you would be able to move again
Art and Audio is good. Game design is very tight and I like it. It would be better to add a little bit of omp when moving or taking an action. I think if you add that it will make more gamey feel to it and more fun.
Thanks, I will have that in mind!!
