I liked it, just a small click tutorial would be great :)

i really enjoyed playing this game, the concept of reviving the forest is a nice one. The mechanics really satisfying to play
It's a fun little game, and I really like it. The UI could have gotten some more love (Icons for the resources, upgrade window staying inside the viewport). But that's nothing too important for a game jam. Good job!
Superb job, well done - super relaxing and fun to play, I got lost in upgrading everything and didn't realise I'd went well past the win condition :D.
I liked the concept and understood this thing about removing mycelia, putting in other place. I was a bit confused because I didn't know where to put my mushroom because couldn't recognize a place with shade from other without, and the one which you start with wasn't producing spores so I got a little softlocked. But I can see there's something beneath. Good work
Really enjoyed the atmosphere and art style of the game! The forest setting feels cozy and mysterious at the same time, and while the visuals are fairly simple, they work very well together and create a pleasant mood.
I also liked the relaxing music and the unusual gameplay mechanic — they give the project its own unique charm. Great work!
It’s a fun game, but I had a hard time figuring out how to get spores or plant the mushroom card at first. I ended up checking the comments and realized you need to spread to trees first so they create shade for mushrooms to grow. I think adding a small tutorial or hint early on would help a lot! Nice work!
Nice work! Great fun once I figured out the spores. Number go up tickled my lizard brain just right 👌
Was pretty fun, had trouble figuring out how to get spores, the original mushroom was similar to the mushroom card I thought they both could produce spores, but I figured it out and beat the game in 2 min, will be back to get a shorter time.
Hello,
It was a little hard to understand how it worked, the info window didn't help much, but I figured out some things, seems like a relaxing game, the music reminded me of old mmorpgs I've played, I liked it, I think a small tutorial with just some basic info would do nice for this game, once I figured it out I've played for a while and I kinda liked it, the graphics are okayish, for this game it's certainly good enough, good job!
looked neat, i couldn't figure out how to grow a mushroom or get spores. it looked like the mushroom was creating spores? wasnt sure. a tutorial or more description wouldn't hurt.
edit: nevermind, we figured it out. for anyone wondering, you need to spread to a tree and then "restore" the tree. that produces shade from which you can plant mushrooms for spores.
would like to see more levels!
Nice game! It's a clever idea and it was fun to see my network grow. The mechanics were a bit confusing, I couldn't figure out how to place the second mushroom.
