@_superHeated like the game and game idea, nicely executed too good one :D I got 274 was that bad ^^!

Controls feel tricky but fair, the particle magic works well and it's fun building my plastic tree! The acid rain drops and wind are nice touches and add some unforeseen challenges to the game.

Beautiful presentation and color palette!

For me it made more sense to make the acid drops collide with the ship, as the penalty was not so bad compared to the huge acid splash that often destroyed a lot of my tree.

I like a lot the fact that at the end I can see the whole structure that I produced!

Nice entry, also refreshing after a lot of puzzle platformers with linked characters ;)

Very arcade-y fun, and it looks really nice!

Super original game! I didn't see any other game in the Jam that use a similar game play!

It really reproduce this arcade feeling, well done! The game is super hard but fun to play 😁

Super fun and addicting! I love the concept and I think you guys executed it really well. It was a good challenge trying to beat my previous high score and the fact that you get to see your creation at the end is a really nice touch. Great stuff (:

Fun and orignal game. I love the art style, color pallette and overall idea of the game. There is some fantasic particle system wizardry going on. I didn't really understand what you have to do as the concept of building the tree is not presented to the player in game, I had to read the description. The game could have also really benefitted from some audio. Music and SFX can add lots of personality to a game.

Really awesome game, i played it over and over!! smart idea, not sure how it fit the theme, but damn is it fun! Only issue is the diffuculty spikes so severly after about 250, or was i just going too slow? it'd be nice to understand how to get the fire to go back down? does that exist?

This is a clever game. I like dynamic where the more that you step on the throttle (the more you try to go your tree) the harder it is to be accurate about where the blocks land. Makes the game about balance.

Well done! I could see it being a fun little mobile game. Cool art style. Controls reminded me of that old lunar lander game. 

Submitted

super cool concept and really cool presentation.  the controls are a bit tough to get used to, but once i got the handle on it, it was super fun to mess around with.  id totally get this if it came to mobile, and with a little touched up movement, i could honestly see this serving a super cool place in the mobile game scene.  awesome work!

Really cool mechanic! It was a bit of a struggle to control the ship, but that's definitely part of the appeal! Definitely something I could see myself playing to kill time. I was a bit unsure of what the top boundary added to the game, but it certainly didn't detract from it either.

Really solid game, good job!

Submitted

Slick game, might be a cool mobile game

Submitted

Really interesting fun mechanic, I could play this for hours lol. Great job!! 

Submitted

Difficult to get the hang of but once you do its a treat to play well done.

It is simple but enjoyable, my high scores are 1874

Submitted

Lots of fun, and really hard too! The challenge kept me playing to try and best my high score

Submitted

We came back to beat our scores and got this!

Submitted

This game is pretty fun! The color contrast is implemented perfectly! good job!

Submitted

Cool little game. Looks like it was designed for mobile which I could see being fun. What I'd love to see would be a way to see your tree when you're done with the level because some parts looked really cool :)

it took me a few tries until i realized that i had to hold W to stop myself from plummeting into the abyss, but after that it was a neat game. I would love it if you could see your entire tree after a run, sort of like a recap :)

Submitted

I had the same experience but was a lot of fun having it :D

the "entire tree idea" is also great
