The Damned Dam
This game was made for Brackeys GameJam 2025.1 with theme "Nothing can go wrong ..."
You must help the beavers maintain their dam and defend it against squirrels, who are throwing their acorns at us, and birds who are flying themselves into the dam.
Firstly you must chop some trees for sitcks down and then get the sticks from them. Then you must maintain your dam by spending the sticks for repair. But watch out for squirrels and birds, beacause when you destroy too many trees, they won't be happy.
The controls and how to play the game is shown in tutorial.
Thank you for playing and I hope you will enjoy the game!

Gj on finishing the game!
It's very complex, so many actions to perform.
You could probably simplify some things, like woodcutting, alternating 2 keys could be more fun.
I would also add on screen buttons for entering & exiting the forest.
I accidentally clicked the quit button trying to exit the forest and it froze the game :)
I think the game starts too hard. The water bar is quite deceptive, you think you could pump out water when it's half full, but its impossible when it gets to that point.
Birds are also quite hard to stop, especially because there is probably already a squirrel attack or you are trying to pump water at the same time.
I lost about 5 times before I figured out the correct order of actions to get the game going.
I think you could slow down the pace of the game a bit, so the player can get to do more things for a while before losing :)
I like the art, nice beavers :D
Thank you for all the feedback and for playing!!!
