My first minute of playing the game consisted of shouting  "what's happening, where AM I??", but once I realised I was a little squirrel-ball jumping from tree to tree everything became clear instantly. This was a really cool concept and a surprisingly fun one to play! The addition of limited ammo, which means you have to restock at your base-tree, was a good move to keep the gameplay varied and challenging. I'd have loved to have a clearer indication of where the enemies are coming from and where they're going, as right now I didn't quite know in the beginning. Could also be cool to have upgrades, like permanent tree-mounted acorn sentries or something! Anyway, super fun little game, I enjoyed the vibes and the gameplay. Thanks for entering into the jam!

The idea is quite cool although it would be nice to see some polish in some parts :)

I like this idea a lot. In practice, it seems like there’s no reason not to just wait in the very last tree, but I might have been missing a mechanic. Either way I think this could be turned into a very fun spin on the tower defense game!

I like the fall vibes but I can't say it's super cozy. The overall concept was nice tho.
