Defend the village from the nasty evil Niddhog that awakes. Upgrade your items to chop wood faster, to hunt better, and to beat Niddhog. Use wood to upgrade your tools at campfire location (consumes 1 wood). Use wood to build houses (consumes 3 wood) to earn more final score points. Hunt deer to get score boost (doubles your current score).
And use your Hammer wisely.
--- CONTROLS ---
A = Move left
J = Move right
E = Toggle weapon (axe=wood chopping, spear=hunt, hammer=end game weapon)
J = Use weapon (each weapon has different effect)
X = spend wood use campfire (=upgrade current weapon) OR build house (=increase your score)
Now only Windows. I try add web + other builds as soon as possible.
Credits etc appear too.
--- EDITS ---
EDIT: (Fixed 2 crash bugs + scoring bug this morning and-reuploaded, Win should work now)
EDIT2: (Scoring bug did not reset your previous game score, meaning you could reach scores high as 1228864... not intended, fixed and re-uploaded)

@maunovaha: my thought is that player must gather wood and then choose which way he goes: axe improves wood gathering, spear is used for hunting (=doubles current score), hammer is the end-game weapon (plus teleport specialty).
And then there's huts: the more housing the faster you gain score.
so it's balancing between them, and when the time is up your hammer level determines your chances of winning (it's a dice roll in the end).
I'm not sure what you mean by 'boss appearing sooner'...?
Either way, thanks for reviewing and playing!
But nice game :)
