10 Second Timber! by keppinakki

[raw]
made by keppinakki for LD27 (JAM)
In 10 Second Timber you try to chop down as many trees as possible within the 10 second time limit. Try to hit space bar when the target bar is green!

I didn't make it to the compo as I started this project too late :( Anyways, it's done now.

EDIT: Post-Jam version added.
*Better textures
*Better everything
*Still lacks sounds and music :(

The art style is great; I like the colors. The mechanic of speeding up the meter as you progressed gave the game an appropriate amount of difficulty.

Games that let me use axes make me happy. I was disappointed that I had to stare at the very top of the screen the whole time and couldn't see the tree massacre in action.

Pretty nice work! I wish there was sound, but oh well. The art is very nice, and it matched the theme perfectly. I think it is kind of silly that if you just spam spacebar, you get a higher score than when you actually try and time it perfectly. (I had three as my best when timing it almost perfectly every shot, and I had 5 when I just spammed.) I know you are trying to fit to the theme, but maybe if instead of using 10 seconds as an actually time limit, have one second = one chop. This means you COULD (not will) get 10 score.

Anyway, good work! Keep it up!

MrBlade, yeah you are very right. I just ran out of time so I couldn't fine-tune the difficulty or make music and sounds.

Nice ax :) ! A little more features would be great. Also, it's difficult to look at the lumberjack (and see if the trunks are well cut) while trying to make a good score.

High score of 13.

This game is fantastic. Besides the font choices, I loved the visuals. I played a couple rounds not focusing on the chopping bar, because I wanted to watch myself chop. I wish that the chopping bar were closer to the visual action. It's one of the only flaws in this game. Excellent work.
