Thanks for the feedback! There is always the option of cutting the excess into shreds :) I was experimenting with the excess falling through but it had to many downsides.
Amazing game, addictive and fun. One of those games I might come back to play later. The physics are very well made and the soundtrack isn't distracting the player but contributing for the overall experience and feeling. Definitely one of the top games in this LD35!
Reminded me of some of the mario party minigames. Really fun!

Though it looks really cool, when I tried to open it on my mac it immediately shut down. I do have Java though... don't really get it so that's too bad, since I really wanted to play this.
I can't find a way to contact you so I will post it here.
I tried it on a Mac and it worked so there should not be a general problem. To find out what the problem on your machine is you could try starting the game like so:
Open Terminal and enter: cd /your/path/to/jar java -jar Cutting-Hedge_headmadegames.jar > cutting-hedge.log
Then send upload the log somewhere and send me a link (@HeadmadeGames) to it and I will have a look.
What a great idea and fun interpretation of the theme. I was very entertained, and the game felt very very polished. The responsiveness to your cuts was just perfect! I found the satisfaction rating to be too easy to please though- Or the customers simply liked my style!
I am genuinely impressed with this game! Great work!
Really funny idea :D Very good take on the theme. The cut physics are so cool! But I think the satisfaction scoring is not very well implemented. I've done a couple of them pretty good, and got less than 40%. Then got 100% with just a few random cuts :D
Neat little game! Maybe it's just me, but the tree's "sloppyness" made it quite difficult to shape for example Black Moustache. But I still love the concept and execution! :D

Got a few good laughs from my poor attempts! :)
Its one of those games that I wouldn't even know where to begin coding it and you made it in two days!
I wish there was a way you could poke out those annoying bits that want to stick around.
That's about the only criticism I have, great job!

It could work good as an app, and maybe a level editor would be fun.

You could maybe improve the cohesion between your different assets :)
Otherwise, well played!
It made me think about Bonsai Barber on Wii
Good job :)
