The cut scenes were really cool! The gameplay was pretty fun and I really liked the inclusion of the rocks, although I was hoping for more variety as the game continued.

Developer

Thank you! Great advice, I definitely wish I had more time to build an upgrade system and more types of enemies, but ran out of time doing the music and polishing 😅

I like the art and the game mechanic! The sound and graphic effects are also pretty cool! Took me a while to realize that you need to carefully aim for the feet. Nice game overall!

Hitting the gnomes and getting combos is super satisfying, also really liked the intro to the game/overall art. Well done!

Who knew fending off gnomes could be so stressful? I love the intro art as well :)

super cool, would have never thought of that and the game feel was perfect. Took me a while to notice I could drag mouse to make it curve but thats on me, one of my favourite games so far.

Developer

Thank you so much! Definitely could have improved the control a bit, especially close to the tree. Thanks for playing :D

Great job! With very few art assets, you’ve managed to achieve such ajuicy feel, screen shake, particle effects, and the sound during combos. I never expected combos to feel this awesome. Well done, you’ve completely mastered the art of juiciness!

Yooo this is so good! Its great to see another survivers-like officianado thriving. Honestly, amazing tribute to the genre. You knocked it out of the park with this one man!

Here's my first impressions of your game. I liked it!

Developer

Woah thank you so much for recording a full video! That's really invaluable feedback for a solo dev to see how someone picks up your game for the first time.
