very fun little game. The minimal graphics gave me a sense of nostalgia that really took me back. my only two complaints. not seeing the full tree (you know but what can you do....) and the ending message. I think I won but can't tell for sure.
A really interesting game. Its always fun to start with something small and have it end up being gigantic.
All you do is draw roots of a tree, I don't know how you made that fun, but you did, Well done. Seeing your tiny, single pixel, soon grow into a large, complicated structure is very cool. Great Job! :)

I think the game was really fun, especially the art style. The message about the tree was quite funny! Only thing was, i think I won as my tree had a healthy life.
I think, if this was ported to mobile and had a few more details it would be a nice app!
Found it very addictive

I liked it a lot. It doesn't really get harder with time, also there is no real indication of how well one is doing. But the idea and visuals are great.
Played it a few times!
Too bad you couldn't make the full tree :-(

This was really cool! Very simple mechanic of drawing the roots, but it hooked me right away.

Nice use of Dart. Addicting game :).
Lovely, nice and fun, shame we didn't get to see the tree :-)
Liked the root growing mechanic and the art style.
Way more fun than what you'd expect. Kudos.
Really nice concept and game, I liked the blocky style. Would have liked to see the tree grow and maybe change depending on how well you did. An enjoyable game.

Nice game, the ending message was a little weird,it's too bad you didn't have time to make us see the tree. Still, a good take on the theme.
Sweet idea, simple but effective.
It's a nice little game. I couldn't see the gui very well so I had little idea of what was going on.
Delightful. Well done. It wasn't clear to me if you just run roots by water and ammonium or whether you have to drag the mouse into them. Roots didn't draw over the top of those blocks so I assume it's the former. Great little game - very original. Well done!

I would soo much love to see the tree growing!
excellent! i wasn't sure what was going on for a while but eventually got the idea. i found it very hard but i think this was an awesome use of the theme. the rectangular canvas format is very appealing and yep i think it would work just as well on mobiles.
A nice calm, relaxing game. The theme really tied everything together to make a complete experience.
Would have liked to have the pace increase a little faster with time. Great game!

I didn't figure out why I was sometimes unable to place roots, although just waiting a bit and trying again or trying somewhere else usually worked.
My tree apparently died fulfilled, I don't know if that means that I won or lost.
