Love the idea of the characters being objects :)

rzfmzn 2013-08-26 12:00

Omedetou! :D

I really liked the procedurally grown tree and the rain noise. Would like to see translations for the symbols. I assume the blue on was the character for rain? Good Job!

kddekadenz 2013-08-26 12:03

The gameplay isn't that good, but I like the procedural trees and the calming rain sound.

komradus 2013-08-26 12:08

That was really cool and kind of addicting, well done.

tomk32 2013-08-26 12:09

needs more particles and tweening and noise and lights. then it's japan :)

i like the idea though i'd rather see the tree growing as i collection, maybe even with an indicator of what part will grow next so i can collect more or less characters for just that part.

hypnohustla 2013-08-26 12:15

Would be a bit more relaxing and soothing without that collecting sound. Otherwise a nice little game. Watching that tree grow is really rewarding :)

fireblend 2013-08-26 12:56

Wow, this is seriously original and just plain cool. I would call it more of a "toy" than a game per-se, but that doesn't make it any less brilliant. Really nice looking too!

Collecting rain for 10 seconds. Interesting implementation of the theme. Good UI. I enjoyed this, and appreciate that the tree is different each time.

cafeine 2013-08-26 12:59

Very cute, and a bit addictive.

Nice tree generating and good idea on using words as the graphics

vectorious 2013-08-26 13:13

I loved the tree generation and the rain sounds. I was hoping for a bit more out of the gameplay, but it wasn't bad at all. I wish the color multipliers affected the score, though!

reaperguy 2013-08-26 14:01

The game didn't load for me

aquilicoco 2013-08-26 15:14

nice game :)

pythong 2013-08-26 16:46

hahaha lol what? nice idea ;)

pbdiode 2013-08-26 17:33

Great job!

The only think I was a little confused on was what the different colored characters actually did.

But over all, very enjoyable to see the tree grow in the end!

djbriandamage 2013-08-26 21:14

Quite peaceful and pretty. A very unique idea that uses the 10 second theme well.

sirtetris 2013-08-26 23:18

Wheeee! AWESOME! A 木 collecting 雨s! Love it! But I haven't yet learned and hence couldn't read the other kanji that appear so I first avoided them. :D

nhmllr 2013-08-27 03:01

This was more fun than I expected.

matthewvermaak 2013-08-27 03:05

Well done. The bonsai growth at the end is very nice :0)

onel3gend 2013-08-27 15:58

Great and innovative idea. Had loads of fun playing it. only the graphics were rather pixeley and the sound got a litle unnerving at some point

kristof 2013-08-27 16:02

Nice tree generator. not so fun to play though.

zeppelincaptain 2013-08-27 16:05

Very cool tree growing mechanic :D I was childishly amazed by it every single time.

lazyeels 2013-08-27 16:12

Cool idea, and I liked collecting the little ame's. I did find though after a while I was going round round with the mouse and getting a high score, so perhaps make the rain kanjis sparser.

Could see this as a cool way to learn Kanji.

diogomuller 2013-08-27 17:04

Creative, beautiful and relaxing. Great entry. :)

ratalaika 2013-08-27 17:23

good job. original game

doubles 2013-08-27 17:30

I love the tree at the end. The collecting sound is a bit annoying but it's pretty good

zillix 2013-08-29 02:17

really soothing

kristinnes 2013-08-29 15:29

I replayed your game a few more times than I expected as it felt very calming :)

Good job!

tobiasw 2013-08-29 17:26

I really like the style of this game! Especially the trees at the end.

A little bit of music couldn't have hurt additionally to the rain - try a generator like http://abundant-music.com if you can't make it yourself. The only thing really annoying me is the collecting sound effect - it doesn't fit, and it stacks on top of each other because you collect so fast. A drop in the water or something similar would've fit better!

And now excuse me please, I'll have to grow a few more trees.

bradleysmith 2013-08-29 20:13

This is absolutely beautiful and such a cool idea. I think this is possibly one of my favourite games I've played so far, very cool! Rated highly across the board. :)

michcioperz 2013-08-29 20:44

Nice, it looks simple but ends cool.

zlowrance 2013-08-29 22:42

Great job!

nerlin 2013-08-30 02:07

Great job! Idea is just super. Very well!

roseninja 2013-08-30 19:28

really liked how simple it was and the gameplay was fun

sylvain-p 2013-08-31 20:57

Really strange concept. I think it's too much random for me, maybe i would prefer if you somme level instruction like make a tall tree, make a small green tree etc.)

zerkruemler 2013-09-06 18:57

Very cool idea. Also challenging with the multiplier. A nice little game.

mrblade 2013-09-16 21:56

Nice work! Cool concept. Nice sounds. Good graphics. 6/10.
