It’s harvest season, and the apples are growing quick. Search for ripe apples, chop them down with your boomerang, and collect them in your truck before they hit the ground!

Be careful, though. The normally-peaceful Inches have sensed the feast and started their yearly assault. A few bad apples will spoil the batch, so watch out for falling Inch-infested apples!

Controls: A/D or arrows to move, mouse to look, click to boomerang!

Made from scratch in 48 hours for Ludum Dare 52. Read more in the post-mortem!

Note for graphics ratings: All art was drawn from scratch during the event. However, the two "walk" frames of the inchworm are "heavily inspired" by the inchworms in Commander Keen 4, one of my all-time favorite games. I simply couldn't resist, they were too perfect. Take that into account when rating graphics, if you want. Note that the inchworm "chomping" frames are completely original.
