Argh the art is so good! Love the color palette and the grass on top of the lil guy. Nice attention to detail

Loooovely art - so polished! Enjoyable game design loop, only feedback would be that cycling through the actions with the scroll wheel could have kept things flowing alot more. Otherwise very great little game!
I love the pixel art and the 8-bit sound effect. But I must said that this is a really hard game, it is not easy at the beginning. It is quite funny that the art design looks like very peaceful and vivid but when I attack the enemies there is blood spreading out😂, that is quite cult movie. Anyway for the visual art I must said I love it and this is a cute and enjoyable mini game.
It's a great game! Fantastic sound and graphics! I felt that hitbox of player weapon smaller than sprite and smaller than lumberjack's reach, and that makes some discomfort, but just for 1st wave. It's great idea: playing for druid)
Wel dome!
The art is lovely, and the music is nice (even if the loop is a little short)! I really like the concept.
A few little changes could probably improve understanding for first play through; arrows to offscreen enemies, as well as either the ability to move a little whilst attacking and/or attacks to slow running enemies, would have helped combat a lot. A more feedback on how planting worked would have been nice, took me a while to understand why I wasn't just placing a tree, but there was a seedling I needed to water (obvious when you think about it, but the preview of a fully grown tree threw me!).
Great game, nicely polished.
really nice art, very nice gameplay! good job.
Lovely art and sounds The waves are hard to reach given the nature of the game and they're very destructive. I think a timer and/or pointers for their spawning points would really help.
planting trees and guardians is fun for a mechanic. this game has a lot of growth potential
This is a great concept and I liked the core gameplay. The pace of the game was very hectic and difficult, and I feel this clashed a bit with the relaxing mood of the game. I agree with an above comment who recommended the use of the mouse wheel to keep the flow, but under the circumstances what you have implemented works fine. Nice polish and I loved the shoutout to your gf along with the pic. With a bit more work, this could be something really special. Great job :)
I liked the feel but I felt really weak when trying to kill the lumberjacks
Great art and music, but it got hectic way too fast. I think you should introduce and explain the mechanics better with some intro stage, as the player has right at the beginning to learn how the game works, while those crazy lumberjacks are going wild.
Great art! Fun gameplay once I got the hang of it.
@delph Agreed, I wanted to add a tutorial level but ran out of time. A future update is definitely a must. Thanks for playing!
@primum-ludum The hitbox of the player weapon is one pixel bigger than the swing animation, but in combat it can feel a bit smaller. Thanks for the feedback, I will definitely make it bigger!
A bit to difficult for me XD But great game especially visually, great fun and good theme interpretation. Exiting the game didn't really work in the browser. But i love this game. Maybe a difficulty option would help me to not die all the time XD Really polished and great animation. This game is perfect as small and round as it is!
This game is really great! Definitely one of the best games I played for this jam. There's something really creepy (in a good way) about the seemingly peaceful mood of the game when you see all the blood from the lumberjacks. One of my suggestions would be to have a longer timer in between rounds to give players a bit of prep time, especially at the beginning. Also the sword sound effect seems a bit out of place from the rest of the music and mood.
Lovely pixel art. You picked colors very wisely, the game looks fantastic! Sadly it was too difficult for me and I couldn't keep the forest alive, but it was fun to play :)
