  • The game plays well in the browser, the walking animation for the tree is hilarious. The GDD is well written and a great base for the development of the game. The gameplay feels fine and the guns are fitting super well to the tree theme. Try to add a collision to the player with the enemies so the don't stand in the middle of the tree in which the player won't have much chances to act. Weapons should always be able to hit the enemies. A popup text to explain what the weapon would be really cool, otherwise you need to see it once what it is doing to actually understand it. a shooting direction indication for the weapons would be great as well so the rotation system is more visible within the inventory. (this is most prominent with the branches) Try to incorporate the forest theme a bit more, have trees to block projectiles as well as enemies. Add different attacks to the enemies as well, like mages casting fire bolts and so on. Overall a great prototype, keep it up.

Summarise your game!
You are a tree who is being attacked by humans. you must become the weapon to defend the forest from the humans. You find a number of tree themed weapons that you must equip to get more powerful and defend yourself. Use wasd to move around and walk into mushrooms to get more guns. Other than that guns shoot themselves so ezpz.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
the tree becomes a weapon to defend itself. a weapon of mass murder.

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
the tree walk animation we are fans of check that out.

Really fun game, the upgrade system is really interesting, since you already added the whole backpack management system I wish the player could access the backpack at all time and be able to adjust the items in it. Another nitpick is that the farmer enemy's movement speed is higher than the player and due to how colission works sometimes they get stucked at the center of the player and with most weapons you cant hit them. Other than that this is a really fun game

this was fun. but quiet! wish there were some music at the very least. but the upgrade system was good. really liked that part. took me a second to realize that i had to collect the mushrooms to upgrade but once i did it was a fun expierience! great job!

Fun! I always wanted to be a tree with a shotgun.

Mushroom boy is overpowered, I had no idea how to get working weapons until my third try, and there's no indication that I hit an enemy successfully. Almost sounds like my issues, but in a different way.

very cool idea I like the combination of like vampire survivors and backpack managment. I think you could add more depth by allowing weapons to be combined or combos based off of locality. Also it would be nice to have tooltips on what the weapons do. Great game and good job had lots of fun playing ! :)
