Whacking trolls never felt better :D hitting the trolls is really satisfying with the screen shake and blood splatter. The game's really engaging.
Great job!

Thought my score was high until I see people comment higher scores haha.
Simple but fun! The screen shake really adds to the satisfaction. Great choice of music as well. Perhaps a visual indication to show how much time left till a troll is out of the hole, such as showing it slowly climbing out of the hole would be nice. Loved it!

Taiko TowerI got 26570 on first play! Seems like it's the highest score from the comments so pretty happy about it. The game is very nice, it's a simple mechanic executed well. I think the addition of the blue troll is a great idea as it forces me to think a bit more about my whacking in order to get more chickens(although I realised they give new chickens mid game only).
My only suggestion is to clean up the blood after some time. The blood is red, and bad trolls are purplish so they blend in with lots of blood, and I didn't see them sometimes.

Battle of the Bald MountainThat was a whack of fun, I managed to get almost 10k! I did notice that the placement of the holes seemed to be predetermined. You could create a bit more variety by making it random (but in a controlled matter).

Connection HopperFun game! I ended up with a score of 18100. I loved the particles and shake effect on the trolls, and I didn't realise that the blue trolls brought chickens out of the ground until later, which is a nice timing/strategic feature. The scaling difficulty also made this very fun to play. Good job!

Scunthorpe ScavengerFun game, whacking the trolls felt good! I ended up with a loop of dirt mounds and I was running in a circle smashing them and managed to score 22,590!
Loved being able to get more chickens from the trolls with bags, it reminded me of loot goblins in Diablo. Great job!
