The key is not to mash the mouse, but by timing the clicks accordingly to each challenge. It's easier for me because i have like 800 hours in Don't Starve Together, and you can cut trees and mine rocks there faster if you time your clicks, so i had a bit of practice.

The tree challenge has small trees that take 15 clicks to cut, if you time the clicks, you will notice it will swing faster. You can get like 9 trees there so there is room for error.
The rock challenge has the brown rocks that take 7 clicks to break, and the timing of the animation is a bit slower than the trees. You can get like 1-2 extra rocks out of the initial goal
The Geroge W. challenge just requires constant movement by being close to any bush and avoiding doing the long hoeing animation if it doesn't detect any bush to cut. I think you can get like 10 extra bushes if done almost flawlessly.
The archers are easy because if you notice the spawn points, there will be shadows spawning there. Just move to the spawn and spawn kill them there. I usually only have the below road actually spawn archers into the arena, but both left and right roads have archers sit at the spawn. Just look for the shadows and spawn kill them. You can get like 12 archers killed.
The berry thing i just did it in a 2x2 pattern by growing 4 at a time then moved to the next 2x2 area and repeated the same thing. You can get like 20 berries if done almost flawlessly.

Just avoid doing the long animation where it swings on nothing. That's like a 1 second penalty each time you do it.

Managed to get like 18 games out of it, although 2 of the keys out of the 18 were redeemed by other steam accounts, and like 5 out of them were DLC's for games i do not own.

Kill 9 archers cannot be done if there is only 5 archers showing up in the 60 seconds...

Today when I win a key and try to claim it, it just sits forever saying "Fetching Serial Data" and won't actually give me any key. I'm guessing it's just a problem with the site and I'll be able to claim them eventually but just wanted to point it out for the mods and see if anyone else is having this issue today.

Also, to everyone complaining about the duplicate keys and DLC keys, I just email support@indiegala.com with the error and the key and they always send me a new key. I've had some of those keys be duplicates or DLCs as well rarely and when I message them back they send me a different one.

To everyone complaining about the archers, they are still spawning. They are just getting stuck on the left and right side of the screen. Watch those sides for shadows and when you see one run over and swing off the edge of the screen and you will get the kills easily. Sometimes there are even 2 or 3 stacked in one spot so you get fast, easy kills without them running away or shooting you like they normally would.

...9 trees...
...1-2 extra rocks...
...10 extra bushes...
...20 berries.
Shh, don't give them ideas! They already raised difficulty once. :)

George W. challenge? Hoeing? Are you talking about the grass mowing challenge? I managed to cut 58 only once and I had to be nearly flawless in my positioning to cut 4 patches of grass every stop in order to minimize time wasted on walking, so I have no idea how 10 extra are even possible. Although I think I see what you mean with constant movement, I'll have to try that.
EDIT I just got this challenge and moving constantly makes a world of difference! You just shift slightly forward between each swing, but that ensures that you almost always have the next target in range, meaning you almost never waste time swinging at nothing. Thanks for the hint! Now I see where the extra 10 estimation comes from.

Those challenges are very dependent on how the rocks and trees are placed and in my experience 1 extra tree is not unusual, but even 1 extra rock is often impossible.

I'll have try that. I'm running a 5x5 square and I get 16 berries consistently, with a little bit of time left, but going after more seems risky, I think I'll try a 5x6 route first, just to see.

Yeah, enemy AI seems borked at the moment, sometimes I run up to a spawn point and kill three archers simultaneously, so I guess they spawn unevenly in addition to being stuck.

Yeah I sent in emails saturday and sunday and still never got any answers today. I'm guessing they have a backlog to go through from the weekend still.

Mind explaining the berry method? I seriously don't understand how to complete that one in time. I can only get 13 max and that's if I play it perfectly.

You could just stand between two plants, turn left -> right click, then turn right -> right click, repeat 4 times and move down to next

That is the correct and easiest method. Just do it on a 1x1 left and right movement. I've managed to get up to 21 berries. That is probably the maximum it allows. Once i got 18/18 berries, i tried 3 at once to grow until 21, and barely managed the time. There's plenty of room for error if you do it like this.

I've got 2 keys that aren't duplicates but my steam account already owns them. Anyone else got 2 keys for games they already own and wanna try a swap?

Also, has the feudalife challenge not been available for the whole of today or is it just me?

I do a 2x2 and get 20+ every time even without doing it perfectly, but 1x1 works as well.

Yeah it hasn't been available for almost 2 days now and the devs don't seen to be responding to support emails about duplicate keys and such from this weekend either, so I don't know what's going on.
