How does your game fit the theme?
There are calm phases before and in between the waves, in which you can calm down and configure your weapon. The waves are supposed to represent the storm metaphorically.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
We wrote all the code ourselves from scratch but used premade assets, which we put into the credits and the description.

Really great game! Had a fun time playing! The weapon selection had a lot of combinations and different playstyles I could choose from which I thought was very cool.

Please nerf the skeletons though

Overall had a great time!

I like how different the weapons are with all their variations. My last attempt was hard using a hammer with virtually no knockback! It's interesting that we get a free choice on which weapon to use - no gold, no building materials, no upgrade systems or anything like that. The visual assets look nice, and the gamefeel is good. All that's missing is music and a lot more sound effects. The weapons could even have different sound effects.

Nice game. It has gamepad support in the webversion, thats a nice touch. Its a good take on the theme too. Hey. that makes 20 for you guys. Congrats!

"The gameplay is so satisfying."

Very nice work! Some devs would have said, "ehh, five weapons are good enough for a Jam." But you guys made five with twenty-something variations. Round of applause! The game felt very clean and polished, and my only negative feedback: there wasn't enough sound effects. Just a tip, without sound, the game can feel unresponsive and stale. But 95% of my feedback would be very positive!

Cool game. Fun to play but quite difficult. Very good use of  the theme. Great choice of pixel art.

follows the theme well, really nice customization, but the enemies are a little bit stronger than ideal. Elsewise great game.

very nice pixel art. Gameplay could use more juice. Cool game regardless.

Very nice! The art and animations are well made

All of the different weapons were a lot of fun to play around with, but it did kind of feel like a quite a few of them played pretty similarly. Big fan of the swiftsteel long hammer and any of the spears, wish more of the weapons had secondary abilities.

The art and animations are very nice!

Cute art and theming, nice gameplay too, my sort of game !

Nice work! I especially like the enemies and art direction. Also crazy how many weapon options you guys had! I think being unable to attack up and down feels a little bad in the state of the game now.

"Fun game with a solid concept. Needs audio improvements and more intuitive attack mechanics. The weapon variety is great, though some tweaks are necessary for balance. Also, watch out for the menu bug during waves!

Submitted(+1)

The game is fun, but feels clunky when attacking since you have to move to one side before you can attack that direction, and it could use some more audio/music.  small bug exists where you can start the wave while in the menu, and it locks you to the menu and wont let you move or attack

It is pretty fun, but I could not hear any audio.

It played very well but I feel some of the weapons need some tweaking. The secondary attack on the spear was pretty nice :)

Submitted(+1)

It's a cool concept with  lot of weapons, a pity not all weapons had a secondary attack. And the arrows were just too much.

The sprites were really nice, and trying to avoid the skeletons' arrows after a while was hard but fun, congrats!
