Fun
Fun, simple but solid plot and well put together. None of the writing made me cringe with embarrassment for the author. The gameplay is exacting without being unfair; it is entirely possible to get through the whole thing without taking a hit. Mind, it wasn't always immediately obvious how to do this, and this led to some early frustration, but it was rewarding enough figuring it out to make that frustration okay. You did, however, neglect to mention that the down arrow does something, namely ducking while sliding, and since this is eventually important, it should have been in the instructions.
Perhaps the woodcutter should consider piracy? (let's see how many get that)
