As an art piece, this was beautiful. The graphics were top-shelf, and the audio was fitting if a bit sparse. Gameplay-wise, I wish there had been a bit more depth. I played this several times through just for the art though. Fancy!

Very good graphics. I actually think this could work as a one-button game, as once I moved in a direction there was little incentive to go backwards.
After finishing a game, I got this error:
Unable to find any instance for object index '4' name 'o_whirlwind'
at gml_Object_o_dude2_Collision_0

@amorphous
Thanks for the feedback. It has been patched.
@Thought Reactor
It failed to load shaders. If you're on a laptop with a dedicated gpu, try right clicking the exe -> Run with graphics processor -> choose the gpu that supports shaders. The game will now let the player know if shaders didn't get compiled.

Such an impressive game, the graphics are awesome, wow !

Looks fantastic! Definitely a solid game. Maybe it could be more challenging if you got more points for getting people, but people can run away really fast.

the graphics <3

GOTY material right here. My lifelong fantasy of being a tornado has been fulfilled.

Wow! Fantastic graphics! I really enjoyed the looks of this game. Also, nice use of the theme! Congrats.

So nice looking... Never had that much fun wrecking stuff. Time limit is harsh, though... maybe add time by fullfilling tasks, reaching enough points in time?

Beautiful art, those sun-rays... Mmmmm. Gameplay-wise, I'm looking for a little more depth with the movement of the tornado. I don't know how effectively I could fling things with my movements (i.e. Throwing a tractor into a dude), but I was hoping I could.

This was quite pretty, but the game play could have used something more. A very nice entry, though!

Very nicely done, the two buttons controls work very well and the graphics effects are so well polished!!

Launching sheep into space since 2015! Blowing stuff up is always good fun!
The clouds and lighting effects were spectacular, how did you get the clouds to change shape?
