I do think there didn't seem to be a lot of strategy involved in moving around, I could basically consistently buy every upgrade just by standing in one place and the weather effects seemed kind of just random. Maybe if there was another mechanic relating to doing something with the weather dots already on the ground, that could help give more depth to the gameplay. The graphics are cute, I especially appreciated the little touches like the particles when the dots disappeared.
