How does your game fit the theme?
You play a character which has to clear the toxic smoke by planting trees. Standing inside the toxic smoke reduces your oxygen levels and damages your health. Leaving the smoke lets you breathe in clear air, replenishing your oxygen level.

I like the environment, the movement feels good, I can´t do the doble jump don´t know why, only see one pyramid, I think is a nice start to make something big, don´t have to much feedback, for example with the bars in UI, I can tell that the green bar is the health but don´t know about the rest, maybe some texts or icons, needs some music and sound effects, I enjoy the environment and drop me to the abyss lol, nice work! Sorry for trying to write in english

The environment is entirely based on a great UE marketplace asset named Modular Lost Ruins Kit. There is no double jump. However, there is a floating mechanic that might not work on all systems and a jetpack (R) which requires fuel (orange bar). The demo could definitely use some kind of tutorial or at least some icons to help decipher the objective. Thanks for taking your time with it!

Interesting environment, looks really good. I did manage to collect some glowy pyramids, but never managed to plant any trees. Died always in the white mist. Thanks for the game

The environment is entirely based on the Modular Lost Ruins Kit from the UE marketplace. Regarding gameplay,  the trees can only be planted in 4 specific locations. Pressing Tab will reveal the distance to those 4 locations. You have to watch out for your oxygen level (cyan bar) inside the mist. You can eject out of the mist to safety by pressing R, assuming you have enough fuel (orange bar). Thanks for giving it a shot! A tutorial will definitely be higher up on my priority list next time.
