Good game

Submitted

This game was one of the most fun games I've played in the whole game jam. Really well done. The numbers were all balanced really well to maintain that level of chaos while not being too hard so I can always recover until it's too late, but it didn't feel like it was the game's fault and was just I wasn't fast enough. I think the main problem is the hitbox of the tree being very annoying, I think make it very small or just get rid of it entirely, also when putting down the bucket and sword it's obstructed by the character so it's hard to tell when it's placed down, as well as when placing down if there's already an object there it should move to the side otherwise it feels unfair. Other than that this is a really great game, kinda said it only has 12 ratings so far, it would be a pity if it doesn't make it to 20.

Would also appreciate it if you played ours, thanks!

Oh yea and also if you make it so that there's no 'you win' and more of a high score game, maybe with increasing hardness it would be better. The controls are really smooth too.

Really cool game!!

Nice idea, definitely harder than it looks! :D I  really like your 'how to play' page. Well done on your first game jam!

Certainly a challenge! It'd be good to see how long we've defended the tree so we could brag in the comments
