How does your game fit the theme?
The player spends an important preparatory phase in the calm before the storm, trying to establish an arena of grappleable scrap. When the storm does come, the debris sitting on the ground starts to kick up, providing a little extra challenge to withstand the wind.

Though the game features the storm itself, we designed it to have that prep phase so that the calm is the most important part- digging up the right scrap is the key to surviving as long as possible.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All of the code and art assets were made from scratch; the font and audio files were not.

The idea is innovative and fits the theme, the visuals are great, and the character has stylish boots. I would only ask for more background music and slight movement control during the storm phase when not grabbing an object (for more interactivity). Awesome entry.

Would be nice to have a few tooltips at the start but well done on the coding and graphics!
