Note on theme
My original plan was to have this take place in a very tiny castle, where there would be small hallways and other tight spaces to defend. In the end I didn't have time to build a whole castle, go figure! So I did submit this with my test map, which is still relatively small for a survivors-ish game, but not quite as closely aligned with the theme as I think I could have achieved with the tiny castle environment. If I get to spend more time on this that's one of the things I'd like to continue working on.

The low-poly bears are charming. Shooting arrows feels fun and I like how the arrows stay stack in the enemies and how they tumble around when hit. The enemies don't seem to be doing any harm, so the game ends only when you get tired of it.
