How does your game fit the theme?
You must protect a race of slimes from a periodic storm. During clear weather, you are to construct marble buildings to cover them from rain as calming piano plays in the background. During the storm after the calm, the music shifts to a darker and menacing tone to show the contrast between each state of the game.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No. Many assets were made from scratch but some are reused. Despite this, all art and music is still made by me. The game is also built off of a version of the Orbinaut Framework for collisions and physics (They are credited).

It's one of the most complete game I've ever seen in Game Jam. The graphics, pixel art, and music are absolutely amazing. It is really well made in a short space of a week. The game of a rolling golem is really unique. The background art is really the best. Pixel art was the best, but the game is fun. Personally, I hope this game publishing on Steam. I'd appreciate it if you could review my game as well.
Thanks for playing! I'll be sure to check out your game when I can.
Extremely good, very pretty, and I love the Piano with the Rain. Really sells the gloom feel very well. Overall Great!
Thanks for playing!
Hee-ho. Very beautiful game. Cool music
Thanks! Improved the music myself.
I couldn't really figure out how to build, but i really like the movement and especially the background music.
Darn, game page has the confusing building rules listed. Sorry I ran out of time to explain the controls in game. Thanks for playing though!
The building phase and the ones where the flying enemies come and try to take what you built is really interesting. Nice job on the game!
Thanks for playing!
This game is quite impressive! I love the vibrant art style; it definitely brings to mind the classic Sonic games. The visuals are engaging, and it feels like a lot of care went into the design. Well done!
Thanks for playing!
Pretty cool game, the art looks kinda sonic's lol
Thanks that was the main inspiration!
Astounding graphic and gameplay, already tried, really like it. Now its ur turn to Try & rate us. Thank u :)
Will do!
Art is amazing and the feel of the game too. I had quite some technical issues with it (mouse alignments, inputs not registering) and wasn't really able to play it as intended I think? But I love the feeling it goes for and the vibe of it.
Really sorry about the mouse. Tried my best to fix it but Gamemaker wasn't having it. Thanks for playing though!
Its good, love the graphics, reminds me of the old Sonic game (in a good way). Very well made, i don't think i can give you any meaningful feedback its just that well made.
8.5/10
My artstyle is directly inspired by the genesis Sonic games so I'm glad its convinving. Thanks for playing!
