I love the aesthetic and the little diorama of the mountain.

Unfortunately the gameplay is just not quite there for me. As other people said you can just spam rocks on the enemies without needing to use the other abilities which is a shame because they were the more interesting abilities. It also felt really uncertain as to where my abilities were actually being placed.

It's a great concept thought, just didn't quite land.

Developer

It is possible to win with just rocks. But as it gets harder, the enemy spawn rate is faster than the rock cool down, so the, you'll need to wall off with trees on the entrance, then use a storm to finish the enemies off.

Submitted

A cool concept but I found that I could just create a rock on the enemy and kill them :D

Also, maybe use A and D to rotate the camera?

Submitted

Nice game, I wish the rocks would just roll down and killed enemies and not fade away in a few seconds.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I didn't make the rocks as powerful because I want the player to use all of the tools.

Submitted

Interesting idea for a game, it felt quite slow to get into and I would have prefered some way to rotate the camera on the keyboard without snapping to views

Developer

You can use the mouse. Move the mouse to the side of the screen to rotate the camera.

Submitted

I was aware of that but it felt awkward to move the mouse to the edge of the screen when I was placing stuff in the middle

Developer

Ah. Well I'll take that into consideration when designing future games. Thanks!

Interesting interpretation of the theme ) Pleasant music and aesthetics

Gameplay are good too, but I dont understand what trees are for, almost all the time I've used rocks :)

Well done!

Developer

The trees are better than you think. You can block off the entrances and then use the storm to get all of the enemies

A great way to implement the theme. The aesthetics and sound are great. A great and a fun game to play!

Submitted

Honestly a crazy cool idea, and I think the take on the theme is really impressive. I like all the concepts, although I think the controls felt a little off. Overall wonderful job and it was fun!

Developer

Ok thanks for the feedback. Next time I will make sure to make the controls a little bit more natural.

Submitted

I really like the overall aesthetic of the game! I think having arrow key/wasd controls for rotation would make the controls feel more intuitive.

Submitted

I really liked the sound effects, music and aesthetics. It also fit the theme quite well. Good job.
