Very fun game once I figured out a strategy I used it and it worked. I didn't play too much so I wasn't sure but, were the levels getting harder?

Feels polished. Nice example of a game that uses the allowed dev time well.

It took me a while to figure out how to chop down trees. I didn't really like that

Hi.. thank you!

@Static_boy123
No, levels are not getting harder :V It was planned to be like this but it was one of the many features I couldnt add due to time :/

I guess we can call it "fake-scanlines-like-big-pixel-look"

Chopping down trees is strangely satisfying. Dunno if it is the sound or the screen shake.

good idea. Needs more improvements.

Felt far too good to cut down trees for being such a mindless task. A well realized game for the short amount of dev time, wish the menu music looped and continued playing during the game.

Really addictive and I love this graphic style! Ranger must die!!

I finally worked out what to do and then a tree fell on me, nice touch.

Left you some feedback on Kongregate, but I really enjoyed it. I really like how different your game is, even with the same general concept. Awesome work!

If I had to knitpick, I would say it would be nice to see some WASD controls added.

Feels very polished considering the dev time. The scanlines are a nice touch.

Made me laugh and couldn't really figure out why Luigi didn't want Mario to cut down the trees. Nice job!

Good solid controls, I like the fact you need to avoid the falling trees, it is a nice secondary mechanic.

Simple and everything works well, solid entry.

Pretty solid. Liked the art and music. Player controls were a little laggy in response and I think you could tighten them up. Didn't really like that trees could fall on me and that I had to chop them from the bottom? Feedback on cutting down trees felt great. Lot of potential here so I'd keep working on it. Solid idea.

A very fun game, when I manage how to fell the tree without getting hit. Very good pixel graphics. Love chopping sound and visual effect. :)
