Special Notes
My first cart, hooray!
The timer drop-off rate in Telegram's version would infinitely increase till a point where it's almost impossible to humanly keep up. In this demake, the drop-off rate is capped beyond level 27, so it's theoretically possible to chop for an eternity if you are able to keep going at a constant speed. Not sure if this makes the game less exciting but I certainly like being able to finally go beyond 400+ points.
Whenever I switch to the other side b ecause there's a branch above, whatever I press always takes me to the side of the branch and kills me.
Good demake! One thing, it is difficult to understand the hitbox of the player.
@Hell_Cat Oh, that's super strange. I'm not able to reproduce that. Are you playing it on the web? And what keys are you pressing?
@Squishy178 Thanks! Yeah, it could be because the amount of tree that gets chopped off is too drastically different when it's branch vs not a branch. But essentially there is a choppable "gap" between each branches. I might look into improving that.
@Yuru I'm pressing z to chop, and the arrow keys to move, but when I'm
on the right side, z moves me to the left one and there's usually a branch there, which kills me.
@Hell_Cat I see, that explains it! There isn't really a chop action per se. You are expected to move between left and right to progress. Z functions the same as the left arrow key, and X functions the same as the right arrow key. You only need two keys to play this game!
