Game Developer known as tatsumaki games unveiled a browser-based game where you move the Japanese archipelago to avoid a natural disaster.
The game is called Typhoon Escape, and the rules are rather simple: move the island group so it stays safe from the looming storms. Their trajectories are predictable, but there are a lot of them, so you need to stay alert and keep the archipelago safe, moving it around the map – and, in the process, other islands and continents too. If you don't succeed, a news-like message about the disaster appears on the screen.
Typhoon Escape also features a storm track map interface, which makes you feel like a scientist observing the typhoons.
You can play Typhoon Escape here. The game is in Japanese, but it's not hard to play even if you don't know the language.
tatsumaki games has created many projects, like a relaxing mining game that acts as a desktop companion, titled Cozy Mining, a prefecture competition, an amusing point-cloud puzzle, and many more. Check out some of them below and visit the developer's X/Twitter for more:
