Fricken awesome dude!! I love incremental games like this so this was right up my alley. As ive already seen people say, the sound effects are so cute!! My only note would be the upgrade curve felt slightly weird? like the start was a lil slow and the end was a lil quick but its a tough balance and very few games ive played have gotten it perfect, what you have is astounding for a 72-hour jam game.


Amazing, awesome, astounding work. I look forward to what you make next :).

The moment I saw skill tree I knew the game would be addicting. And boy was I right. I have played this game for maybe a bit too much time lol. Love the sfx too. Good job

Hilarious sounds in general, and very strange but interesting music. Gameplay was stimulating for sure, and the jam themes are all there. Quite addictive too!

Hey, here are my thoughts on the game

  • the menu sounds were funny
  • i like how the tree of the banner is kind of part of the game visually
  • dragging quickly seems to sometimes not create roots
  • i like the concept to go to the tree to upgrade but i feel like it would be nice to be able to see the leaves you have in the game
  • i wasn't actually sure what i need to do so i kept going new run and was wondering how i get further but then i realize you can get upgrades from the tree

Cool vibes!

I gave myself an hour today to rate a few games here. I just spend it all on this one ._. 

Developer

Haha, thanks for enjoying it so much!

I was hooked! This game is simple but it makes you stay. Kinda reminds me of that one Tiktok filter. Nice Job!

Developer

Thanks! We tried to make a nice little addictive loop with enough upgrades to keep things fresh!

Submitted

Pretty nifty game! I loved that procedurally generated levels. It's a bit RNG based IMO but aligns well with the theme.

Developer

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!

Developer

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.

Submitted

It's a simple idea executed very well. I loved the game. Great job!

Developer

Thank you! We tried keeping the scope nice and low so we could focus on polish and quality.
