How does your game fit the theme?
In the morning, after enjoying a delicious bowl of mushroom soup, I heard on the radio about a storm expected to hit at 6 a.m. on July 15th—just four days away. My roof is damaged, and I need to urgently gather wood to repair the house. But the trees aren't cooperating. They run away, and some even fight back when I try to chop them. Why can't they just stay calm?

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
yes

Really impressed with some of the visuals and the art  even though some of them didn't really match up cohesively. Definitely stands out well. Gameplay was a bit unpolished but man, the vibe of this game is great. Perfectly unsettling and there's that initial 'wtf' moment when the trees started to run away.

Fascinating, creepy vibe! Some of the art doesn't match, the main character looks very different from the surroundings. Died on day 3 because half-the-time, the fighting trees didn't seem to have a hitbox, but it was intriguing up to that point. I got the sense that the moving and fighting trees were people, and the main character was just imagining them as trees.

Unique and fascinating art style. I like the iconic hair style of the main character. It's all very well drawn and I really enjoyed the cutscenes. The story was well told, and very creepy. Good jobcreating an eerie atmosphere.

The art in this game is gorgeous, those splash screens were incredibly evocative, and the increasingly creepy trees were cool. The gameplay itself was simple but effective and I didn't run into any bugs playing the game through which is certainly an achievement in it's own right. Great work all round!

I really like the atmosphere. I would add a sound effect when the trees are hit (or shake the frame). Good job.
