I'm excited to share my first semi-complete game, Goosewind! Soar the skies and honk the tornadoes out of your path! Play in browser or download for Windows (Mac coming soon). There may be a few small updates here and there. I'm a hobbyist game developer and this is a practice project for me. It's small, but I hope you enjoy!

Controls

  • Move: Left and Right Arrow Keys
  • Honk: Up Arrow Key

Notes for Downloads

  • On Windows, after extracting the .zip folder, be sure the .exe and .pck files are in the same folder/directory.
  • On Mac, after extracting the .zip folder, you will likely have to right-click and Open to bypass the unknown developer message.

Possible Updates to Come

  • Pixelated menu font
  • Full credits page
  • Explosion animations

Also...I'm wondering...have any Goosewind fans named their goose? Let me know in the replies what you call our feathered friend!

Just updated to v0.5! Major updates are difficulty spikes at certain scores, and a score penalty for missed tornadoes. One bug fix of game crash on Controls screen. See devlog update for more details!

If you read the devlog for v0.5 you'll see I was worried about messing up the high score system. I was correct in that fear, so I've now updated to v0.6 to fix that bug! Let me know if it still isn't saving your high score correctly (Best way to test this is in browser btw, not desktop version since the save data carries over between versions on desktop).

Just updated to v0.4! A small update, but important for gameplay: a score counter! It should also now save your high score and display it on the game over screen, too. Enjoy, and let me know if you have any issues!
