A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Winter is coming! Collect enough nuts and return them to your tree each year before you freeze! As a humble squirrel, you can only carry up to 5 nuts at a time, so plan your trips accordingly. Be sure to watch out for cats, cars, and river crossings that show up over the years as your habitat shrinks and becomes more dangerous.

Submission for UT's Game Jam 2019 hosted by EGaDS.

Controls:

Arrow Keys or WASD to move

Space bar to shoot nuts – Stun the cat or shoot them into your home tree
