Fun, but hard. My record is only 10.

@snarf, the game is for Windows. :/

Is this game eco-friendly? Yeah! Cute game with nice graphics. I like it.

Fun and innovative concept! It's a little too challenging right out of the gate. If the spawn rate had increased as time goes on, it would have been better. Other than that, great game!

Has potential but it lacks a tutorial or any kind of instructions. You might have to consider lowering the difficulty.

At first, I found it was hard to know what I was doing. After figuring it out though, it seems like a solid game. Great use of the theme, it did crash on me after a bit though. I included it in part 1 of my Ludum Dare 32 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/-ZkAqIe6FiQ

Gets hard too quickly, but not a bad concept

The main mechanic is extremely unwieldy due to the fast and slippery movement system married with enemies attacking from non-cardinal directions. The directional keys just aren't made for to handle that combo.

How about playing as the tree flinging leaves with buttery smooth mouse control, raising saplings to act as turrets and recruiting rocks to shield your forces. That's unconventional as well.

When it comes to simple score-based arcade games gameplay-feel is king. Annoy the player and it's gameover man.

Wow this is hard and fun. I crashed it.

Hey, nice game, cool idea.

I have to say, though, trying to play this with the track pad on my laptop is difficult (to put it mildly).

Great game, great concept! Graphics were also well done, spawn rate could've been improve, but hey. Best of luck in the competition!

@HuvaaKoodia, thanks a lot for the feedback! I definitely get what you are saying. I'll definitely incorporate this into my new games. :]
