Neat game, after the part we knew the Plus/4 port was coming

Luca, I'm surprised by the mention of Steveboy, is that warranted? His stuff is also just an copy/implementation of "Timberman", which is a pretty famous mobile game. (Not Flappy Bird level famous, but it was quite a hit.)

Firewood Better Burns In PETSCII

Summer has gone this year too, and the cold season begins to show small signs of its impending presence. To avoid being surprised by the colder temperatures, it's time to stock up on firewood for the winter!

PETSCII Lumberjack is the new "from-game-to-PETSCII" reinterpretation by Ko-Ko: cut branches to make firewood as quickly as possible and without losing the required frantic pace. It features both PvE and PvP modes: n PvE mode, you will face off against the computer in a race to chop down trees as fast as possible; in PvP mode, two players compete head-to-head to see who can chop down more trees within the time limit. Precision and timing are key, and mistakes can slow you down. Can you out-chop your opponent or beat the computer’s speed?

PETSCII Lumberjack is the last reinterpretation of a series of C64 lumberjack-themed games which basically show a similar gameplay, and this specific one has been inspired by the BASIC driven implementation created by the BASIC games' master coder István "Steveboy" Maros. Its original C64 counterpart has joined the Game development mixed compo at QBParty 2024, getting ranked fourth out of five.

Winter is coming! Wood got requesting! Show us your scoring!
