Very good idea, with fun execution. Spent quite some time to find the last few persons and kind of spammed tornados :D Just an idea if you'd like to continue development. Had a lot of fun playing it.

Interesting take on the theme! Felt quite fun throwing around disasters, would have loved to see more also a simple restart button would have been nice.

Really fun to play. I really liked using the abilities (all of them tbh)! Unique take on the theme too.

There was some strange bug (probably caused by the French keyboard layout ;) ) where wasd did not work, but I managed to find the right keys to play.

Unfortunately, I also could not find the last three survivors, so I couldn’t see my final score… Maybe they ran off the map, or they are too good at hiding. Humanity always finds its way to survive…

Good job with this entry!

well that was fun, played a few rounds. I know it probably wasn't the inspiration, but makes me thing of the early SimCity games as a kid, where causing disasters was half the fun. Was a little difficult to find the last stranglers though, I gave up on one of the games because there was 1 person left I just couldn't find...

SimCity was not our primary inspiration, but we are glad it reminds you memories of when you were a kid :)

I'm so impressed, and I love the idea of a flipped survival game! The particle effects make everything so satisfying! Loved using the sharks the most!

Lol that was a lot of goofy fun! Definitely needs to be balanced and cleaned up, but this was a great little time waster and cathartic experience. I definitely saw some of the people go off the map, so something to investigate if you keep working on this. Well done :)

That was surprisingly fun! I just think sharks are way too powerful for their cost and meteors the opposite - also meteors take sometimes very long to arrive so you think it didn't work and throw twice

Very fun game!

Although I'm not sure the island should be happy to receive meteorites lol.

Really great to play! The only thing I would add is a way to focus on a random living survivor, because it gets really hard to find the last few.

Great work!

I think the game would become too easy if you could spot them automaticaly tho

Really cool idea! I like the reactions of the humans when things happen, and how you can bait them into more open places. I liked pushing them to the water so I can let the sharks go at em haha

There are some bugs (like the W and S keys not working) and maybe more indicators (rooting out the last few people was painful) would be nice, but it is a solid game! Love the concept

The keys are acting weird for everyone, i don't know why, for me it's WQSD that are working.

We are going to make the sprites of the dead survivors disapear over time to help rooting out the last survivors. If you want to be notify for the post jam update you can follow me on itch.io.  :D
