This game was pretty fun! I loved the old school flash style! It was cool figuring out the different traps to use at first, I was setting them all up, but then I learned to wait to see which squirrel was coming. Took a little trial and error but then I felt like I could just keep going forever. It's cool you added different backgrounds, and I feel like the music really suited the game too! Great work!

AHHHhahahahhaa! That was fun!
Would be nice to see an endresult, after the winter-scene ;-)
ey ey ey, this is funny, thats how a game should be xd
Just some little adjustments here and there to the graphics and apply some hover animations for the buttons and you have a very pulished title, great work
Yeah. I've been re-teaching myself photoshop and working on masking and cleaning up lines etc. I've gone through and polished up some of the graphics but just haven't applied them.
I drew everything on my iPad and didn't use the correct pencil settings to make sure the outer lines stayed crisp... then I didn't use mask etc. BUT that's what jams are for.
I thought the concept was fun, it entertained me for a while, I liked your game. I assure you my 5/5 rating xD
Fun game. Certainly put a smile on the face watching the squirrels spring of the screen
It was a really fun game XD I especially enjoyed the part where a huge number of acorns suddenly appear when you start the game on the title screen. (I couldn’t find any of the Machines elements that were supposed to be the theme, but I think that’s okay!)
Even when the sprites aren't that much complex they really fit each other and make the game really appealing both visually and in the audio.
The first time I was just spamming random objects but in my second time I struggled with the ninja Squirrel. I didn't like the idea of losing because of that but at the same time I got happy because the game wasn't just about throwing whatever object you have.
Honestly, I think this was the project that entertained me the most during this game jam. I laughed right from the start with the EA Sports reference in the disclaimer at the very beginning (EA sports is in the game). It was kinda nostalgic and hilarious at the same time. I absolutely love the characters but it took me a while to figure out I should drag the items to the X locations. Man this is truly something original, I was missing that.
I like this. Enemy and trap variation was thoughtful (you can't just use the most expensive trap on everyone). The art was silly. Tweety Bird looked like someone spiked his bird seeds! This definitely feels like it appeals to Looney Toon fans like me.
Hey! that was a nice one, first time I was lost but second time I got it right
Hahaha, this was so much fun! I loved the variety of defense options, the humor, and all the different enemy types. The art was super cute and absolutely hilarious at the same time.
