I like the concept and theme, as well as the pickaxe's hidden location!
However, I was softlocked after completing the first two tasks as there weren't enough trees to complete task 3 (Eastern sign from start). I think this may have been because it seems trees respawn after each task's completion, and since I had harvested the entire area, I did 2 tasks in a row without harvesting, leaving me 4/24 wood needed for task 3.
All is lake.
I love the touch with the butterfly! There was a moment when I went in the water and said to myself, “Wait, why am I going faster? It’s a video game, shouldn’t water make me slow?” And then I realized that duh, it’s a beaver, and beavers can swim!
Love the style and the beaver's walk animation is so cute. It felt like a bit of a grind though and I wished there was some promised reward or outcome to motivate me to keep chopping stuff. Cute concept nonetheless and I didn't encounter any bugs (except dat cutie butterfly)
Neat game! I made it to the last task but was unable to complete it because I was 1 tree short. I liked the hidden cave with the axe, and the controls were very straightforward/easy to master.
Great work, especially for developing it with GDevelop! A few years ago, I struggled a lot to use it. The beaver should definitely become the mascot of some brand!
I had a bug where one tree was missing to fulfill the last task
I love the artstyle! Really creative with the theme of the game jam and the controls were great, but the game does miss some ambient sounds or music. Still a great game tho :)
The environment and style of this game is brilliant and it feels very polished, so was a lot of fun to play. Great name too!
I really enjoyed the game as a sort of exploration game, but I encountered a bug where I built the second dam twice, and I didn't have enough resources to make the fourth dam. I'll play again while making sure not to press space near that sign, and I might update my rating.
I tried it again, and I still really like it. I just wish that bug wasn't there.
Thank you for playing my game and making me aware of the bug, it should be an easy fix. Wish there was more to explore and some extra puzzles and challenges but I was a bit short on time. Very appreciated!

Love the beaver! Confused about the pickaxe.
Thank you for playing my game!
The pickaxe is hidden inside a cave at the top of the map, I was hoping to add a map / directional feature to help locate items but unfortunately ran out of time.
