Disaster City

Disaster City is an inaccurate tornado simulator I made for the GMTK Game Jam 2023. The theme was “Role Reversal”, and I decided to go for a simple reversal of a city builder game like SimCity - instead of building the city, you’re destroying it!

Initially I was going to add multiple disasters and make it a sort of strategy game where you used your limited resources to destroy everything. I quickly realized that wasn’t feasible for me to make within 2 days, so I limited myself to one disaster for now (the tornado) and ended up with a sort of windy Katamari clone.

The controls are basic: WASD to move around. The tornado gets smaller over time, and gets bigger each time you hit a building. Destroy all the buildings before the tornado disappears to win.
