Cozy game with a real nice soundtrack. A bit short and no clear end-state (I think?). Well done!

Fun little game. Had some luck and no corruption spawned. Well done!

@mstrp Thank you ! Yes it's missing a few elements to make it more engaging (like some kind of goal)...

etherianx 2022-10-05 01:22

@phoenixofforce Thanks ! Yes that can happen. The corruption mechanic was supposed to be a bit more elaborated, spreading and evolving. But it's one of the last thing I implemented so I had to compromise. Glad you liked it !

I enjoyed watching the little trees over time. Very relaxed, chill game.

I really like the idea of this game! I would recommend if you wanted to keep with this in the future, you might want to check out John Conway's Game of Life (if you haven't already, it's entirely likely that you have). Scoping down on art assets and doubling down on the idea of a massive grid-based gardening and entropy defense game has a lot of potential. Either way, it was nice to sit down and watch some trees grow for a bit while planting flowers.

@davidtheginger Wow, I hadn't look at it this way ! I'm actually really interested in cellular automaton and, now that you mention it, that would completely fit the gameplay. I may come back to work on this game in the future after all... Thanks for the tip !

Watching trees growing up is so comfortable.Nice idea!

I love the idea of spreading awareness in this way. I can definitely see this being a nice and relaxing game to chill out too after a long day :)

Nice and relaxing, especially the music was nicely relaxing. I would have loved some keyboard hotkeys to switch between flowers and tree. I also accidentally overrode my tree with flowers which I didn't know was possible haha, so I guess I didn't create a bio-diverse flora

Oddly satisfying game.

Very relaxing. The visuals are simple but pleasant and the music is great.

Not sure if there is any end to the game (?), or is it meant to be endless. I just stopped when I was satisfied with the look of my little garden. But it would probably be nice to give the player some goal to strive for.

Cool and interesting game

Very soothing game! The music was also fitting. Liked planting trees and relaxing to the music. Black death was uncommon enough to not bother me. Would've liked and ending... maybe. Overall great work!

It's nice to grow your garden, I had a good time GG :)

Satisfying game, bit slow for me though.

It would be great to have the chrome version too
