Hello Itch world!

My second game, and first full itch release, is available now for free: https://jarkonian.itch.io/kill-the-twister

Designed as a standalone boss fight, "Kill the Twister" is a short fight against a massive tornado. Using a shotgun, ground slam and a litany of explosive barrels, players will hop around the scores of debris orbiting the tornado, scavenging supplies and dodging attacks. Throw explosives into the tornado and then blast them to deal massive damage.

Currently the game is only available on Windows, but I'm planning a Mac release once I finish some testing.

I hope you all give it a try and enjoy!

Incredibly cool game all around! My one critique would be that the chess pieces all moving individually ends up taking a long time at the end. Other than that though, very well designed game. Makes great use of its mechanics, would love to see a full release one day

Lovely game! Great idea to go with a wario-ware style thing, and the visuals were perfect for it

Absolutely fantastic!! Loved the chill vibes, and the puzzles were a lot of fun to pick apart. Very well designed and executed!

Looks really good! I love the aesthetics and the music used. I expected the concept to feel dull but it was surprisingly fun rolling that little die around! I will say though, the camera feels very unreliable. It seems to turn with your current direction? With W,A,S,D, that made it hard to get it oriented the right way

Fun and cool looking game! Felt snappy. The puzzles themselves were interesting, and I found myself starting to consider the whole board as I played through it

As a minor critique, the"You Suck" felt a little aggressive, though that's more just personal taste, haha

Really cool little game! Neat idea to flip around common platformer concepts. I like how you included goal posts in each level even if they weren't the actual goal, gave a feel that this *would* be a normal platformer if something weren't different. Was a little annoyed by the lives system though, if only because this is a game where predicting what kills you next can be difficult, so having to reset the whole thing after a while feels arbitrary.

Really cool concepts! I especially love the idea of losing control of your ship in a natural way due to space collisions. That being said, I feel like the amount you lose control is a bit extreme for how long it takes to get it back. I get that's part of the point, but spending a minute trying to stop spinning only to graze a rock and start spinning again can be a bit tedious. Definitely some great potential in here though, would love to see how it could be polished later on!

Wow this was fantastic! Artwork is adorable and the gameplay is surprisingly engaging!

Main critique I have is I think some use of colors would help with more quickly identifying melons who are getting sadder. Other than that though I'd say this is a really fantastic little gem you got here with lots of room for expansion and refinement!

Really cool  game! Love the aesthetic and music, and the ideas you had for messing with basic controls were really cool. My main critique would be that even standard platforming is a little finicky, though for the most part it's still accessible enough to be fun
