Great job, and super unique take on the theme. One tiny critique i have is that UI elements like connor's textbox and requests can cover up locations to edit, making it really difficult. Also, I think the difficulty curve could do with some flattening out, it was too slow for too long at the start, but then got too fast too quick (my highscore is 61 if that helps provide any context). still was really fun though, loved it!

Amazing game in terms of the theme. Liked the graphics and gameplay a lot! Also liked the smiley face screenshot :)
Loved the innovation and the art style 😊 ! Although in the beginning it felt way to easy and then it got hard really really fast, a bit more time in the middle would have been awesome, but maybe I am just bad 😂. And just realised thanks to the screenshots, that I could actually draw with the temperature pen, I only clicked on the corresponding numbers the whole time without actually drawing anything 😂
Very creative to use the weather/news cycle instead of bicycle as your theme interpretation! I wish there was a button to do a quick switch between tools, and also that Connor wouldn't talk over my map and cover icons I need to see! But other than that it was 100% really fun, felt like an expanded Warioware minigame - in a good way! Art is great, too.
Oh, and I wish the music sounded a bit more like a news/weather report theme, but it was a good track so I'm not mad about it.
Art, Sound and the idea are great. But I don't like, that the speech bubble giving the next action covers part of the map, thus hiding some spots to mark. That turned the frantic fun into annoyence. With that changed I would have nothing to critique about this game.
The only thing I wish was different would be being able to change the volume in-game. Great job with this!! really fun and creative!
Wow what an interesting take on the theme of the jam. Art is really good and the game plays well but it becomes super chaotic almost immediately and I got confused really quick. Managed to recover but by then the damage to the ratings had already been done haha.
My strategy is to tell everyone that its super hot, super cold and has a hurricane and a side sunshine all at once. It kind of worked, and I think I'm fit for the weatherman job now! This game is fun and exciting and panicking, all great for the experience. Its also one of the few games that takes cycling into a more broad unique way, which is awesome to see. The art style is well done and this feels like a warioware minigame that I'd be absolutely cracked at. Amazing experience and great job!
Very awesome art-style and unique interpretation of the theme :)
It would have been nice to change the volume in-game. Additionally, once you miss one marker, it is hard to get back into the correct rhythm.
