This game is not designed to run on your device. Add it to a collection to play later, or you can try to run it anyway.

A shoot'em up set in a desert where you need to fight off the continuously renewed threat of wild animals disagreeing with your cutting edge desert farming methods. Survive for 7 minutes or your lonely existence in the desert comes to a raccoony end.

Web build note: music is not working properly, consider playing the desktop version instead (performance is better too), or loop play the music track on our composer's Soundcloud :)

This is a game jam entry for the 14 day Buddy Up Jam 2024.
