Such amazing game! And i can't stop myself from playing those button..omg isn't the sound cute?! Sound effect works super well here!
I gave myself an hour today to rate a few games here. I just spend it all on this one ._.
I was hooked! This game is simple but it makes you stay. Kinda reminds me of that one Tiktok filter. Nice Job!
Thanks! We tried to make a nice little addictive loop with enough upgrades to keep things fresh!
Pretty nifty game! I loved that procedurally generated levels. It's a bit RNG based IMO but aligns well with the theme.
Thank you! It is rng based but the further you go down the more water spawns so there's a bit more strategy. Even though in the final game you can just stay at the top and still be fine.
Absolutely loved this game, my favourite that I've played so far. Highly addictive. The game gets easier the higher you climb in the tree. I did find the rocks easy to avoid in most cases though so I didn't even get the rock nodes.
Very well done!
Thanks for playing! I do have to agree that the rocks could have played a bit more of a part as you can kind of ignore them and still win.
It's a simple idea executed very well. I loved the game. Great job!
Thank you! We tried keeping the scope nice and low so we could focus on polish and quality.
very fun to play!! really impressive that this is made in such short time with this level of quality
Thanks! We try our best in the time we are given (including staying up until 5 am on the last day)
This game is pretty goated
Thank you!
Really cool idea, and pretty addictive, especially once you get almost as much energy back from picking up water as you use up.
Thanks! once you get to the end you do almost get an infinite build to regain the same if not more energy at all times.
This is a really nice game! A good take on the classic clicker genre. And I really dig the artstyle. Also a surprising amount of content for only 72 hrs
Thanks! We were inspired by a sticker tale for the art style using big white outlines for interactable things while using almost painted style for the background.
I agree strongly with the core message of this game, stay hydrated folks!
It is as important to a tree as it is to us, human beings. Stay hydrated!
Really fun idea and good execution ! kinda addictive when you understand the concept :)
Thanks! We tried our best to make a small yet addictive gameplay loop. Hope you enjoyed!
nice idea, fun upgrades and i like how the leaves literally appear on your upgrade tree
Thanks! we through around the idea of not having a leaf counter in the corner but ended up thinking it was too hard to tell your leaf amount otherwise
really cool idea, and great upgrades!
Thanks! We tried making a good selection of upgrades for some different playstyles even.
Ah that’s cool! I didn’t think about different playstyles as much for my game. I do have different species you can choose in the beginning, but it only influences the dialogues. Maybe I should consider that as well for my next game/ iteration
Amazing submission. I had to make sure my tree was set up for success and played it until the end! It was super satisfying hitting those extra leaf from water upgrades!!! Great job on the game as a whole! Even the silly SFX haha.
Thanks! Good that you enjoyed it, those conversion upgrades are kind of crazy strong, really starts making things exponential.
sick. great idea this is literally the function of a tree root
Thanks! We tried to use the theme as best as possible! (also I don't know if that second comment 16 seconds before this one was intetional?)
no it was captcha glitvhing can u also rate me i kinda low on ratings
sick. great idea
That was a seriously fun and addictive game! I also loved the button hovering sfx lol
Thanks! The button sfx is also my personal favorite.
One of my favorite games in this jam!! So fun!!
Thanks! Good to see our first time making an incremental game go so well!
It was quick and simple to get a hang of the game and the sound design made it even more fun to play!
Thanks! We really enjoyed making the sounds, lots of beeping and booping in the recording sessions that's for sure
