Game Description
A relaxing resource management game in which you control a growing plant.

How does your game tie into the theme?
This game lets the user control the (literally) underground roots of a plant. The roots are obvious critical to plant growth, and this game puts that front and center.

LOVED it! really original and wholesome take on the theme. discovering the flower's color was a nice reward! welcome to the godot wild jam and congrats on your great first participation! <3

I did not immediately understand that the leaves can be rotated, I should have read better "how to play"

Good entry!

Tbh I was really surprised to see the ground to be so deep bc I thought there were no camera panning at first =D. The moment that the flower bloomed had a lot more power than I initially expected it to too. Though the effect of particles coming out of the top when you're full of resources and have no flower yet is a bit confusing. It was a lovely game!

I really liked the idea, but never fully understood how to grow "proper" roots. Only got 1 extra extra extra long root collecting everything haha. The music is very relaxing, good job.

Really nice, concepts like this make game jams worthwhile

I liked it very relaxing, it would be cool to do this for different plants that have different needs and whatnot.
