Nice atmosphere and presentation. I wish there was a bit more to the game.

This is a really interesting concept. Well done!

Hey look Ma! I did it.


So I think the idea is good, but needs a few improvements. Here are a few ideas:

  • Make it so that you have a limited amount of ?ink? to draw branches
  • Make it so that you have less time to draw the branches
  • Have randomized nest drops
  • Make it so that nests come in different sizes, and depending on their "weight" they can break the drawn branches depending on their thickness
  • Make it so that your drawn branches have to attach to the tree

Nice try though.

I do always love a nice "draw to create a path" game. Now while it does mechanically stand on its own feet, I feel this game has barely begun to walk. The nest only ever falls in one location, and even if you place the tiniest two dots in that area it will be caught. The entire game can be summarized by "draw a line at the bottom of the screen and wait 60 seconds". Some friendly suggestions: make it fall in different areas, make more levels with different trees (and more colors), or maybe even add a grey zone where you can't draw, subjecting the nest to a possible physics jumble.  It is a game that needs more, but it has a good start, so good effort for what it's worth.

the concept is interesting, with several levels and / or several weights depending on the size of the branch it could make a game a little more successful :)

Interesting idea.Beautiful background.Great base for children drawing tool.

A great Idea. Could have put some limitations to make it more interesting and challenging.

I really liked the idea to let us draw for growing! :D

Neat concept, very interesting take on spring/growth! Would love to see it explored more though with maybe more levels. It was very easy for me to win by just drawing one big branch.
