It's a fun idea but demands to much clicking to get a proper budget for a nice disaster.
Maybe redesign it into a clicker game that requires reflexes.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The objective of Simple Destruction is to cause chaos among the non-playable villager characters. To do this, the player is able to make fire, thunder, explosions, poisonous fog, devils, and tornadoes.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I have written all the code and made all of the assets except for the sound effects (which are from https://mixkit.co/)

I really liked the game and I really wanted to finish it but after a while the people stopped running arround and they weren't getting scared soft locking me. If you get to fix that bug send me a message or reply to this comment because I really want to see what "The End" is.
Nice soothing game play. But you need a better way to collect points as clicking small characters are difficult.
Okay, I wasn't expecting to like it that much, seriously. On first impression, given the very simple graphics, I wasn't super convinced, but after playing for like 1 minute I wanted to reach the end. Really fun and really fitting for the theme. The bomb during the end game is absolutely broken tho, as long as i got 3 villagers, I turn a profit, so I was just spamming that lol. A note about the music: althought the loop wasn't noticeable, after a while it gets really repetitive and you start to notice. I would have liked a longer background music so there would be less loops

The game fits the theme perfectly. Really enjoyed the game. It reminds me of Plague Inc.
And I reached the end in 613 seconds! Yay!
You made a pretty cool game!
The game fits the theme well and is fun to play. I'm pretty sure I bankrupt that poor little town.
Very fun and exciting game! Definitely fits the theme. Other than a few small nitpicks, pretty much perfect!
Now that is how a game jam game is made to fit a theme. Very fun game play. Took me a few minutes to figure it out and at first I thought it would take for ever then I realized the population kept increasing which substantially sped up the higher rewards. Nicely done.
Game Design: Its nice how many options you have. On problem I had was I didn't know how to close the help menu at the start.
Fun: Pretty nice! I liked the timing aspect of trying to click the coins while they ran away
Innovation: Its an interesting change on this type of game
Theme: The take on the theme that you actually try to cause the chaos is really interesting.
Graphics: The art looks nice.
Audio: A bit too loud.
Really fun game. Like others said, took a second to figure it out, but it was worthwhile
