I liked your game, it's a really fun game to play. The only suggestion I would give is to add the feature of making the player face the direction of the mouse, but other than that, it's a neat little submission. Rated especially in fun. I also liked how the tree "dies". :smile: :thumbsup:

This was pretty fun!.. until I ran out of ammo lol. The only thing this game really needs is sound, but other than that great game :)

Those were some intense lumberjacks!

Next time work on some animations for the players. Just knowing that I was reloading by looking at the character would have been nice. Sounds would have helped a lot also.

++ Challenging! Did take me a little bit to figure out the tree was actually blocking bullets but that just adds another layer of gameplay there.

-- Ran out of ammo and there's want's much I could do about it. Felt like shoot should either have been on a button or the player looks at the mouse.

Quick reminder to get more players: Use a thumbnail for your game. Otherwise your game is presented with this grey box. Some great Games are not played because of a missing thumbnail ... You can still change it by editing your submission page :)

The best way I can describe the game is... ok, but you can do better. The gameplay is repetitive and the lumberjacks stack up on each other. Also there is no audio.

Good use of the theme, seeing a lot of tree based games this LD!
Only issue I encountered was sometimes not being able to go all the way out to collect an item, seems to be a barrier in the way. Also for itch.io embedding of a unity project it tends to cut off a bit of the frame (ie the dimensions you give itch.io dont account for the extra 50 or so pixels at the bottom) At a guess it looks like your game is 1280x720, so just increase that height to around 750 if you want to get the whole game fitting in the window a bit better. But nice work overall! :)

The game has potential. I think the balance of how many Lumber Jacks come at you could be lowered, and of course graphics could be better (but honestly it didn't bother me, it's a game jam!).

I couldn't figure out how to get ammo, so some sort of indicator for that would've been cool too.

But honestly you got a working game in 3 days, so that's an accomplishment in itself. I recommend teaming up with people next time, or using pre-made assets for a better visual experience next time.

My goodness those lumberjacks come out in full force! Maybe the game could build up a little slower in the beginning to get a grips of controls and feel of the game.
Interesting game though definitely needs some audio to take it to the next level :D

A really fun and entertainning game to play with. I think your game can be developed more by adding sfx and redo the graphics. Fun one!

Nice concept ^^ I think a bit more particles to show the current ammos, health of the trees may help with the player experience!
