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.

love this game so much !!! want to see what will bcome in the end ,spent a lot of time on this game,wish for more content to play
Ahhhhh thank you thank you thank you!!!! We are super grateful that you took your time to play our game <3 we will work hard in the future!
Quite fun. I liked the style of the game, as well as the lore. There were periods of time where nothing would pass into my range, which left for gaps in the gameplay. Otherwise, great work!
Hi! Thanks for playing! The gaps were probably caused by you alerting the preys and them scurrying away in fear <3 You have to be stealthy in this game
Very cool and funny!
Very nice little game ! And visually very pleasing !
NOT THE MICEEEE..... OKAY BUT I ACTUALLY DO LOVE CRUSHING STUFF, AND THE ART/AESTHETIC IS SO GOOD!!!
Our mice don't have weapons to defend themselves. *Evil laugh*
Basically the perfect scale of project for 48hr, fun loop and beautiful presentation. Well done!
Thank you so much <3 We tried hard, and it's so rewarding to read comments like yours
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!
Ah, stay tuned! We want all of our projects to exist in the same twisted universe of fun and horror <3
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.
Thank you thank you thank you! We and our Tree are delighted <3
Cool game with crazy, scary Groot! It would be great if you add a selection for people in the future, because I didn't immediately understand that people can also be devoured
Thank you for playing our game! Loved yours <3 If you mean the circles under the preys, it was supposed to be a tutor level feature :D
I must feeed! The art and music really made me want to keep playing. Very fun!
Thank you! <3 eat the rich, feed the trees!
Fun game! I wish that enemies had a bit more of variety
We'll work on it <3
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!
thaank you! <3 we wanted to implement of mechanic sinner/believer, so some preys would gave more points, while some less :D
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 :’(
we will fix it in the future! <3 don't worry, the tree is striving!
Nice take on the theme. I vibe with any game that lets me consume the landed gentry! Art style was 10/10 too
thank you! our artist is amazing<3 and as for eating the rich.... mother nature fights back!
i REALLY dig the art for this, getting good dont starve vibes and its pretty awesome having to grow my massive tree >:)
thank you <3
WOOHOOHHGH
AAAAAARGH!
Game looks georgues but i feel like the end could be more intresting.
ah, we will think about it! thank you for playing <3
Really really liked the aesthetics of the game and how everything comes together.
Nooooo! Spoilers! D:
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.
Thank you fro playing our game! <3 The first bar is for hunger. The second one indicates how much is needed to reach the next level :D
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!
thank you <3 we will work on SFX!
