My submission for the Ludum Dare 53 game jam! It's short and sweet (5min), and you play in browser!

Deliver wood to the fire to keep away the zombies!

I worked solo on the game/art and Connor Grail made the music. Made in 72 hours.

^intro

^collect sticks and deliver them to the fire

^venture from the fire if there are no sticks close

^get in your spaceship and blast away enemies!

Ha, I won on my 2nd game - after I realized I could hold 3 sticks. This is great! Good art, good music, reasonably snappy controls. The story's fun and without spoilers the game reminds me of a particular comic, which made me smile. Very nice work you two.

@holdmeimscared I think we're thinking of the same comic :). Thanks for playing!

I liked this a lot! Very charming, especially the ending. I also didn't realize I could hold three sticks at once, but it was pretty easy after I figured that out.
