Death by Tree

Could get more plays if there was a binary. Tried to "make" but apparently missing SDL, so decided to move to next game.

Agreed, build, package with the correct dlls and then upload somnewhere!

and hurry! you're currently losing votes...

The README mentions SDL and SDL_image but not SDL_mixer and SDL_ttf.

The graphics were very charming, and the gameplay simple and intuitive (once you'd tried out both items). It gets very hard very quickly, to the point that I don't think any amount of skill would help.

Some sort of score system (or at least a game over screen) would've been appreciated - as it is, the game quits as soon as you die.

Remove "engine/text" and "engine/sound" from the first line of Makefile and "SDL_mixer" and "SDL_ttf" from the second line. I think it works...
I'll update the makefile later.

Made in C? Sounds difficult for making a game in 24 hours. Only git hub source?

Sorry, with 1300+ entries, you have to make a better effort than this to get people to play your game.

Over a week later and no binaries.

Well, I can see why this has pretty much no votes. Are we expected to download the source files, edit them, and the compile them and run them?
