This was a charming little game! The first thing i noticed was a lack of music, 
I started playing, as one does, and pretty quickly i had some tools in my arsenal. I then realized I didn't have enough wood to craft an axe.. and without an axe.. well.. I softlocked my self.
I decided to restart the game and try it again, but noticed there was no apparent pause menu or way to quit the game..
So I alt + F4 'd my way out
On my second playthrough i experienced some combat, which felt empty and unresponsive

It's really commendable how much you got into the game, Theres a full inventory system, terraria-esque crafting system, saving system, farming, combat, and placing objects. That's a lot of stuff to make in 2 weeks!

That being said, the lack of polish, gamefeel in the combat, and music really takes this game down a few levels. My advice to you: Make a post jam version, improve the combat, get some sound & music ( even royalty free stuff is good, check out freesound.org) in the game, and allow tree punching (to prevent soft locking).
This game is so close to being good, and has a lot of cool systems behind it. I really hope you come back to this and continue improving it!

This is a good start to a game! However I feel as though the difficulty spiked when the enemies came, and I hardly had time to craft weapons since I had to gather wood and craft axes a bunch. Though somehow on my second time playing I bugged it so that I didn't take any damaged and played about 4 days in game. It has some cool mechanics, though I'm not sure how to craft soap since I tried every config of carrot and potato I could place in the boiler. I really liked the art style, and the system of the rocks were mobile so you had to chase them down was neat. Awesome job on this game! Thumbsup!
