there is a vole.

he lives beneath the soil.

waiting.

for a walnut.

I am super excited to be part of my second ludum dare! i was hoping to be ready for the compo but it wasn't in the cards this month. i did manage to get something together, even if its just one level!

i hope to expand this if time permits...

it's silly but i hope you like it!

UPDATE: wow! thanks for all the awesome comments and critiques, it's really helpful and encouraging and proves what a great community LD has. Some questions that have come up:

1. i had really hoped to make more levels, so it is a really short game :) i do have ideas for obstacles, powerups, etc and hope to get there with a released game.

2. the leaf was meant as a bonus/secondary goal. so as you bump the ground to get the walnut into the hole, you could get the walnut to bump into and collect the leaf (there would be a leaf counter) and some levels would have more leaves to get. at the end of each level, that would give you additional points.

3. @local minimum: great idea about bumping the ground to release the walnut! i will definitely add that in a release version of this game
