Unique gameplay but abit confusing, and got stuck in level 3 TT. Love the pixelated graphic

Thanks for the feedback! 🎄

Level 3 is the first time the min/max limits really matter, you have to place at least 10 trees there.

It’s meant as a bit of a difficulty spike 😄

Glad you liked the pixel art!

Took a little while to get used to the UI (reading the limitations on trees and chains) but this is a pretty fun and unique entry. I like the various upgrades as well, which help you progress further if you get stuck.

The sound design is really good.

I accidentally managed to trap the Grinch during the fail screen and he was a snowman at the start of the next round.

Haha, yeah, he definitely shouldn’t stay a snowman in the next level 😉
Looks like a bit too much Christmas magic leaked into the fail screen.
Thanks for playing and for the great feedback about the sound design! Merry Christmas!

Thank you for playing. In the third level you have to place at least 10 trees, the indicator for that is in the bottom left. Merry Christmas!
