It was a fun game, with a great angle on the theme. Great idea for a unconventional weapon.

Not sure exactly whats going on, but the audio and everything else fit very nicely

Nice looking and good music, but it's a little easy to keep all the towns at 5.

jhell 2015-04-21 16:24

Very nice, I loved the art and music. The gameplay is a bit lacking though. Excellent polish.

frosty 2015-04-22 03:51

Really cute game overall, and a nice take on the theme. Great work!

aumni 2015-04-22 05:59

Really enjoyed the gameplay and the cute graphics. Well polished game. Good work!!

Flashy graphics, neat idea, great sounds! Very solid entry, bravo!

2015-04-22 08:39

Nice idea, nice graphics, nice music, nice EVERYTHING!!!!1 :D

zak-amana 2015-04-22 09:11

A pretty nice game, well executed! good take on graphics, audio and theme, all efficient. Nice work, your little clouds cheered me up :)

animanegra 2015-04-22 09:19

Sooooo cute!!!! :D I love it!!! :)

suhvan4ik 2015-04-22 11:03

I loved the music. How to win? )

strong99 2015-04-22 11:37

Funny game, I enjoyed playing it. :D

gogo199432 2015-04-22 12:56

Interesting game! good job :)

aske 2015-04-22 14:44

Really great interactive soundtrack. Good job!

gamehelp16 2015-04-22 14:48

This is a good attempt at making an unconvetional weapon :)

The graphics and audio are good too.

dragseal 2015-04-22 17:12

simple concept, yet it is quite fun, the art style and the music is amazing

jakub-gemrot 2015-04-22 17:20

Good idea for the jam - currently too hard (just for me?) even if I get all the pink clouds (miss one or two) I was able to perform just one storm (may be I missed some trick). Nevertheless very solid entry!

loggiant 2015-04-22 18:52

I had to die to figure out how to play (because I'm dumb and didn't read the description, controls weren't intuitive to me)... but cute and good use of the theme!

thejash 2015-04-22 21:50

Good game but hard to get far into it. Love the idea though, super cute

kunzbe 2015-04-22 23:28

quite diffcult, but well done

thejcs 2015-04-23 01:49

Really nice work. I believe you could improve it making a more progressive difficult to learn the skills

teslacoil 2015-04-23 02:12

Great looking game! The clouds and cities were adorable, and I don't call cities adorable often. That said, I thought the game was really unforgiving. I found myself just wandering around waiting for good clouds because I /could not/ rain on cities without a wall of bad clouds getting in the way. It would be nice if the lakes restored your water supply on their own, just by hovering over them, instead of having to wait for the nice clouds.

photon 2015-04-23 02:41

Excellent entry. Although I didn't necessarily understand what was going on at first, I started to get it and it was quite fun managing your rain and your powers. Really like the take on the theme too using rain as a weapon. Great stuff!

peterkirk 2015-04-23 03:01

This game was super cute and I loved the music.

raiyumi 2015-04-23 05:35

Really cute game and graphics! I'm not sure if there's any ending, is there?

bace1000 2015-04-23 06:37

Brilliant!

evilseanbot 2015-04-23 07:10

The presentation was extremely charming. The game was a bit difficult + unclear, though.

sakergames 2015-04-23 08:52

Nice and fun game. I like the graphics and the sound. In fact the whole idea is funky. I felt it a bit difficult though.

bardikus 2015-04-23 09:32

Very polished entry. The abilities charge a little too slow and there aren't enough good clouds to collect and you are quite quickly overwhelmed by pollution clouds, maybe ramp down the pollution cloud production rate and make more good clouds. Overall good game, probably the best polished game I've rated so far.

triplevisiongames 2015-04-23 10:26

Yey GameMaker (or at least I assume that with that loading bar ;) )

Great concept and beautiful art/music. I felt that the stuff filled up a bit slow and I found it a little hard to not get swamped by clouds (although I see comments saying it's easy so maybe I'm just terrible)

huvaakoodia 2015-04-23 11:21

Doesn't load on Firefox for me, but worked just fine on Chrome.

A solid arcade game, with some minor gameplay issues.

I would like the wind direction and speed to change in a less predictable fashion to spice up the gameplay. This would require a wind direction indicator though, so that planning where to go next was still possible.

Some of the pink clouds could spawn outside of the screen at a random interval, as currently there are very few of them and most of the time they are blocked by pollution and/or get pushed outside the area by the wind very fast.

It's a tad odd that while you have a functioning health bar the game also ends automatically when the pollution's gotten too severe. This is not communicated in anyway and comes as a total surprise before figuring out the magic number that the city pollution should't go beyond.

I would rather have the overall pollution have a periodic effect on health meaning that the player could easilly see how close they are to their doom, based on the cloud size and their health bar.

I really liked how the music merged with the sound of the factories :)

pinkmonkeyhead 2015-04-23 14:26

Really cute graphics. I played 20 minutes to get the rainbow but still didn't get :(

wupto 2015-04-23 14:32

Yeah, we're currently tweaking it a little. Thanks for all the nice comments! =)

lebrokholic 2015-04-23 15:59

Pretty fun game. Love how it looks. Would be great to add explanation of the game directly in the game, though.

scorched 2015-04-23 16:22

Simple and lovely. One of the best soundtracks on LD32 as I played. 5 stars for every category:-)

wupto 2015-04-23 17:08

Thanks everyone :D @lebrokholic We'll probably be working on a post-jam version with an ingame tutorial and some more things soon and might even port it to Android.

dustoutgames 2015-04-23 21:23

Loved this game! Very cute, and actually pretty challenging. I liked the specials we could use by saving up pink clouds. It was a game I wanted to keep playing. Nice music, and also really good use of theme!

gfm 2015-04-24 22:10

This game was so cute. *-*

But it was also too slow... The rainbow took forever to fill...

retrogradeorbit 2015-04-25 07:29

The best I've seen so far! Really well done. The only things needed now are polish things like on-boarding. I had to come and carefully read the instructions to work out what to do.

badlydrawnrod 2015-04-26 17:29

Very cute presentation and a good take on the theme.

heardtheword 2015-05-12 00:59

I enjoyed the concept. I was a little confused on the game play, whether or not the cities were supposed to be green or red. I also felt like the smog was a little overwhelming compared to the pink clouds. Maybe add more progression to the amount of smog clouds.
