Scatterhoard

Scatterhoard A Sokoban-style, totally accurate* huge acorn hoarding simulator

Winter is coming. *loud groan*

Lucky for you, it's still autumn! Prepare for winter by pushing and hoarding strange giant acorns around the forest.

Featuring a squirrel, cute but deadly owls, a day/night cycle, nyctinasty, pixel art graphics using the Indecision palette, a retro soundtrack, pumpkins and mushrooms.

This was made for the Great Autumn Game Jam 2021. It's the first fully featured game I've actually managed to complete and publish! I stuck to the optional palette and had a great time implementing the optional day/night mechanic, which ended up being one of the main mechanics of the game. I hope you enjoy!

Design, art, code, sfx and music all made from scratch by me. Fonts by the awesome Daniel Linssen.

* accuracy was measured in relation to a hypotetical reality where comically huge acorns that bury themselves after hovering and shining for a second are a thing.
