"Ooops! That page cannot be found!"

The animations in this game are AMAZING. They're so silly but it doesnt feel out of place. Those deer are great. The game is great. Pretty awesome way of doing things really awesome across the board. The weapons were a little janky but you know.

whoopsie. fixed that 'page cannot be found' also fixed crash bug, and the another crash bug that spawned when I fixed the first crash bug.

Hmm. played your game, it was a bit raw in terms of graphics, but managed to get to a point of "boss" showing up and he beat the crap out of me.. Thus, maybe he should appear a bit sooner so it could be faster gathering of resources and they making a duel?. Anyway, good job.

@hjalte500: thanks for playing!

@maunovaha: my thought is that player must gather wood and then choose which way he goes: axe improves wood gathering, spear is used for hunting (=doubles current score), hammer is the end-game weapon (plus teleport specialty).

And then there's huts: the more housing the faster you gain score.

so it's balancing between them, and when the time is up your hammer level determines your chances of winning (it's a dice roll in the end).

I'm not sure what you mean by 'boss appearing sooner'...?

Either way, thanks for reviewing and playing!

That was a weird but fun game, I couldn't kill any deers with the spear, couldn't figure out how to hit them :(

But nice game :)

I won! Something I'm noticing about a lot of games is that instructions are not clear (this applies to my game as well). I stood at the fire and just kept pressing x without knowing what was happening. Fortunately I leveled my hammer pretty high and won!

Bit hard to figure out what is going on, and very quiet, but the art is lovely.

It didn't seem like I could hit anything? Some sound fx would have been helpful feedback to know if I hit or missed. I ended up watching the walkthrough .gif, and it looks cool.

I love the deer, they look so cool. Ragnar looks pretty neat too to be fair. I found it a bit confusing (even after carefully reading this page) the first time around but I always love a bit of deforestation. Was good to see a guest appearance from the Niddhog!

I like the character and pixelart work you did on the game.

The game looks good, I wish there would be music, but it plays well without it too

I like the graphics! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/S5oK4fsls3Q
