Cute game, I like the atmosphere. I made the Ancient Banyan Tree.

This was super cool, I liked the ambience and music choice but I think a the crossfade might of needed some more overlap to be seamless and the music could be looped. I really liked the animals hopping around and enjoyed playing!

It's cute, I like the sound effects :)

Developer

Thanks. About the sound effects, I used assets. But well maybe someday I would make my own!

I shouldn't be the one to complain about opaque mechanics considering I couldn't explain mechanics in my own game, but I'm too dumb to understand whats going on here.

The basic concept is that you have to plant saplings. To buy saplings, you need leaf currency (which regenerate over time). Once the sapling is planted, you have to give it ample sunlight and water. To water a plant, simply right click it. Once a sapling is grown into tree, you can start merging them to create a small forest, then 2 small forest into a large forest. The progression sometimes can be a bit slow. Hope this clears it up.
