Really fun game, was fun to see the progression from prototype to full game. Gameplay is solid an clear how the game mechanics work. Has a nice look and feel too. Really like the inclusion of the leaderboard, although Ry is over powered. Nice work guys! Good luck.
Nice work! Impressive that there is a leaderboard.
I definitely like what you were going for, however, I struggled for a couple minutes to figure out what exactly was going on, and then longer to figure out that the fire was green. The audio on the fire also carries over into the menu. Not bad, and an interesting concept!
Everything from the music to the art, to the font you chose really supports the mood! The implementation of a high score mechanic made me play this entry more than most of the other entries I've tried so far! I was really gunning for the top score. I ended up getting seventh or something. Very impressive work.
Solid mechanics. My only gripe is that at some points when you run out of spirit, you might not be near any orbs to collect. Maybe it would help to add a mechanic where spirit appears after you've run out, but only one of the orbs is within the area where you can feasibly reach it. This way you have to quickly judge which one you can collect, and if you're wrong, you die.
Anyway, good game!
Awesome work here guys! The graphics and sound compliment each other really well and you absolutely nailed the theme.
Fun gameplay, nice graphics, but you should add a "destroy branch" button, because if you press one time to often you are doomed
Nice work, I played this through a few times, it was pretty good fun, although I occasionally felt like my death was inevitable due to the power-up placement being so far away, which was a little frustrating, although I can understand that this would be a difficult balance to attain inside a short time window, particularly, when the supporting music, sfx and graphics are rather good!
I'm glad I saw a leaderboard on there also, always adds that extra bit of replayability on there ;) I think I'm currently 10th with ~70-80m
Nice gameplay but I suck at this game xd I like the mysterious mood, I enjoyed it for a while.
Very nice, Impressive that you made a leaderboard, love the graphics to, very hard though. judged on stream at http://www.twitch.tv/meep706, watch the highlight to see me play
A little difficult, and I had a few problems with accidentally starting another branch after finishing one, but still a fun game overall! Good ambiance and graphics and it was great trying to beat the scores!
This game is very difficult, and the random placement of spirit spores didn't help. One miss when branching to a spore and you're done, since there's no way to cancel back out of the spirit branch and keep growing the main one.
I found it confusing that the fire you're running away from is green. I thought it was good or part of the plant at first, and didn't understand why I kept dying initially.
I like how the leaderboards are integrated into the game, that's really cool
Really interesting game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/eeRk2tDl2JU
