Fun and cool game! I really like the mechanics, it feels very nice to play. Loved that you used penguins for this, they are my favourite! :)

Game Description
simple penguins assembling in prayers so the clouds create rain and protect them from fire !
How does your game tie into the theme?
religious prayers require assembling and more prayers will allow to spawn more clouds therefore the clouds also assemble in power

i had so much fun playing this!! love the sound effects and the graphics too! nice work! :)
On my first playthrough, I figured waiting until the cloud ran out of ammo before praying was a good idea. It was not! I didn't know what I was doing wrong until I decided I would just pray whenever I'm not shooting, and that did the trick, soon enough I was able to pray the other clouds into the game, and from then it got really intense!!
Fun game! Some of the most crazy unique takes on the theme! :)
The sound of water splashing added a lot, as did the random chance to double shoot!
The penguin sounds were really cute and charming, and so was the menu screen. artwork
Is there a reason you didn't allow fullscreen on the game's page? maybe it's just me but I found the menu text to be almost too small to read!
It was genuinely heartwarming, you enjoyed the micro details, such as random double bullets and the religious take on the theme =D... Who doesn't love some religious penguins ? It was my first time posting on itch we, I don't think I even saw the "allow full screen" button at first, and it will be surely fixed ! Thank you so much for playing, have a lovely week my sir
Fun game! I like that you can chose to jump right in or get to view the tutorial. I particularly liked the sounds the penguins made while praying haha.
It's very funny and the theme was followed in a unique way. Good job :)
Very unique take on the theme! The sound effects were funny and the penguins were very cute! Like others, the text was a little difficult to read in the browser but installing the game with the itch app and going fullscreen seemed to solve the strange rendering issues there.
For some reason during playing session i had situation where i had active cloud on a field and my penguins kept saying that no active clouds detected. It's fine game idea but as with any game jam game there always a room for improvement - for example some visuals can be added to make the game fit the theme better like penguins growing in number along with the high score or simply over time. But anyway, it has a game loop, it has an objective and who doesn't like penguins?
Thank you for reporting the bug, I will be looking to fix it. I love the idea of penguins growing in numbers ! The system I used makes it quite easy, because every penguin is a separate Kinematic2D node with an animation and touch detection script, I really don't know how it went over my head. Thank you for the helpful feedback, it means a lot <3
Font was difficult to read! Allowing fullscreen would help or changing the font color to black. Nice interpretation of the theme!
I stop at 50.000 xD
It's a fun game, I liked the art, the idea and the sound, congrats! But the font is very small and hard to read. Maybe a black font and the option to put in fullscreen would help a lot. You can't update the game during the gamejam voting period, but I believe you can add the itch fullscreen button in the game settings.
That was fun! Really straight forward setup and enjoyed the steady flow of gameplay :D
This was fun. I tried the tutorial first and it was actually helpful. I played the game for a bit too long, too. The theme was weird and I wanted to see it taken even further. Looking forward to see where you take this in the future.
Congrats on your first submission!
Nice submission! Once I got into a flow state it was really hard to stop. Really well done :D
This is a cool little time management game, but it doesn't come across on the tiny web build. Fortunately, it downloads and installs easily on the itch client. Well done!
