A great example of an idle game. Although the art is simple, it fits perfectly, and having the bamboo evolutions add points to skills from other trees makes you inclined to find those other bamboos in the first place! It does get a bit repeptitive, what with mostly only clicking two buttons until you unlock the automatization, but I guess that's the point of an idle lol
Loved it from beginning to end
nice idle game, I love the skill tree setup. Great job!
Best sumarai ever! Cool vibe!
The finest example of game design! A true masterpiece was created in such a short time. I'm looking forward to seeing it in the new and popular.
Good idea! An idle version could be better, since repeatedly clicking gets tiring
Really Cool Art and simple concept, was hard to understand at first that bigger bamboo need more hits with no upgrades, skill tree is a nice addition which I thought was nice, really enjoyed playing this simple but super clean game, this would be a nice mobile game in my opinion! Very solid.
Some extra thought:
Love it :) A simple yet adictive game that works from start to finish.
Моя вторая вторая инкременталка в жизни, мне понравилось рубить бамбук, в целом очень круто, добавил еще разновидности аттак
The game fits the theme well, and I genuinely like both the visuals and the core mechanic: you have to create a target for yourself and destroy it at the same time. That said, in terms of gameplay, it mostly comes down to pressing two buttons with a fairly long cooldown, which does not feel especially engaging. Still, the theme is clearly explored, and the game works without bugs, which is already a solid result.
There's also a skill tree there, but I haven't given any clue how to open it (scroll in the upper-left corner). I wonder if the game can be updated?
I think that if you add clearer onboarding and make the mechanics easier to understand, the game could become much more interesting. And if you decide to expand on those systems further, there seems to be real potential there.
