Love the atmosphere, but it does ramp up very slow. I played this live at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/415002371 (70 minutes in)

i like the art and the music, shame there is only one music track would have loved to see more, i think there should be more challenges because the majority of my playthrough was just waiting for a wave to hit me so i could go and find more pieces of wood. Overall a cool mini game

Developer

there's actually two music tracks but i can't say for certain if i messed it up lol

there were more modes planned but i scrapped them because i didn't have enough time for all the systems and stuff, but that's what post-jam versions are for ;)

Well done, the art and sound work very well together.

Given the saves, I imagine that there is a rather long progression, so i will let it running to see where it goes! EDIT: 5 days before dying, not that shabby.
