Extra Notes
Thank you for playing our game! It was our very first jam for most of us. The GDD is at the bottom of the Game page. We scrambled to get it in time and didn't add it to Downloadables.

I love the 2.5D style, pretty well executed, i can totally see this becoming a full fledged game. Couldn't find the altar though, searching became a little tedious after you get too far from the tree, maybe having a seed inventory could help. Then the management and expansion parts of the game would have more synergy with one another and the fertilizer would make real sense (because of the long trip for coming and going from one end of the map to go back for another seed the trees are already grown without the help of fertilizer making it's use pretty much useless). Super nice cutscene, didn't see that coming on a game jam 馃ぃ

Thank you so much for playing our game and for the nice feedback! We unfortunately handled the generation of assets on the map on the last day of the jam - resulting in a whole lot of tree logs and not a whole lot of Altar. We're hoping to resolve this and more when the judging is over!

One use for fertilizer you may not have run into is to bypass the long waiting time of growing your friends back when they die! But your feedback is valid and we'll have a look at some potential tweaks in the future :D

Very cute game, like the design and drawings. Little hard to understand that the seed goes into the holes. I can definitely see potential in this to be something cute you play co-op with, clean up the forest, do some alchemy and such.

Thank you for playing our game and posting feedback! We've spent most of development without too many other things on the map than just the seeds and holes, and once we started decorating, we may have lost sight of whether or not they truly stand out. Good point!
