I really enjoyed the art and general vibe of the game. I'm super interested in the lore of the world you've created. Very fun! Great work!

How does your game fit the theme?
We implemented it in a core loop of our game, helping a small sapling to grow into a big (and deadly) tree. As our carnivorous plant devours more and more people, it grows and its hunting ground scales, making the difficulcy scale as well.

Now this is what I can call Perfect Game , 100% enjoyment , 100% creativity.
Amazing work. Games like these encourages me to explore more Jam games, so much to learn for me.
I must feeed! The art and music really made me want to keep playing. Very fun!
I like the premise of the game and the art style + music creates a unique atmosphere, feels really polished! I wish different preys gave different rewards though to give a bit more sense of risk/reward.
Good job!
the core mechanics is nice, I liked the fact you get more roots as you progress but I think it needs a bit more variation as you grow ! Also I didn’t see the end screen cause I was clicking when it appeared :’(
Nice take on the theme. I vibe with any game that lets me consume the landed gentry! Art style was 10/10 too
i REALLY dig the art for this, getting good dont starve vibes and its pretty awesome having to grow my massive tree >:)
Game looks georgues but i feel like the end could be more intresting.
Really really liked the aesthetics of the game and how everything comes together.
The art is gorgeous and I really liked the narrative framing.
The overall gameplay was intuitive and fun but I never understood what the two bars at the bottom meant.
Really well done! Super addictive gameplay from just a single interaction. The progression feels nice (though it seemed like when I would grow wasn't always tied to the green bar like I thought it would be). The art is beautiful. The SFX felt a little bit too repetitive to my ears. But overall this is a fantastic entry. Nice work!
Great game! Hitting the timings and predicting the speed turned out to be quite addictive. Awesome art.
Our game also ended up with a similar theme of consiming and growing the main creature. Even the style is similar.
The gameplay is really satisfying, I would love to see some abilities the more you upgrade!
I liked the music and the artistic style, it reminded me a lot of don't starve. very good job.
