How long was your dev time?
I think I squeaked in under the line for coding, if research doesn't count. Jazzhoo did the art in much less than the three-hour limit.

Thanks so much :D

Great art!

Gameplay was acceptable but as others mentioned the falling could be slower or something.

Got a highscore of 106

Thank you for trying it out, and for the useful feedback. :D

I suggest that you slow down the speed of the falling nuts, which currently feels too random as to when the squirrel catches a nut. There is not enough player choice in choosing to catch a nut at the far end because there is no chance of catching it even from being in the middle.

Thanks, Stealthness. That's very useful feedback.
