How does you game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme as the player cannot enjoy their picnic alone without being swarmed by pests, and as a result are pressed into defending themselves.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?

A super funny little game. Well done.
Funny game.. pretty hard to defend your picnic... :)) Good Job! All the best!
Good idea! At begin tried to hit dog, until realized that it on my syde )
Great idea. Almost unplayable in the browser, though :( Seems to be a consistent problem with 3d games that use mouse camera control.
It's a funny idea, fun voice acting and a nice coherent style (visual and audio)! In my browser, the game was lagging slightly when I turned and the turning speed felt a bit fast. This made it very hard to find and to hit the invaders. I think I would have enjoyed it much more if I felt a bit more in control of my character. But it was still a lot of fun, and very different! :D
Obnoxiously British but I'm assuming that was the goal. The swing sometimes feels a little delayed but overall fun.
Really british problems going on here. Good fun, very easy to get stuck on the picnic items
We are working on a fix now and it will likely come out soon
Thanks to all that have played the game so far! We didn't anticipate this much reception for our first game jam :D
We hope to update the game at some point (likely after the jam is over) and respond to all your feedback :)
unflappably lagy it hurts
Apologies, this doesn't seem to be a widespread issue though
Nice game! I like the humor and the presentation. Fits the theme well, as well. Only nitpick would be the sluggish movement around the picnic area and how collision of the trees makes it unnecessarily hard to travel in the woods.
Good job!
epok game
Biased!
as a man from the island of britain. This is my regular sunday
As a fellow brit this game is incredible. the gameplay was goofy and just fun. the voice lines honestly perfect i got to round 8 and then fenton ran away and lmao the sad music and everything whne he runs away was great. honestly great submission
very fun 😂
I like the concept, the movement and hit mechanics are janky on the browser but that makes a bit of sense. I assume they're a bit better on the downloadable version.
But a very cool game.
Fentooooooon!
Very fun game with nice gameplay. 11/13 colonies reclaimed.
One small thing: I seemed to be stuck on some of the picknick items when walking over them from time to time-
Very entertaining and stressful game watching seagulls wreak havoc on my picnic! In the WebGL build the movement did feel a little sluggish and I would get stuck on picnic items, but overall a very fun and amusing game!
