very good game! catched me, was very nice to play! +music +the random tree

Nice. I think this would be perfect for mobile, just sinking into my couch, harvesting berries. Love that it forces you to play slow and punches spamming.

Probably one of my favourites so far! Aesthetic is great, music is great, face fruit is great!

What a unique game and such a vibe. I love the odd fruits and their kind of mini-games. And procedural tree building in godot?? I love it. Also if you made the skybox you must tell me how it's gorgeous.

Such a relaxing game. After some time I realized I maxed out all the upgrades but I still kept playing. This is a really unique game. Congratulations and thanks for this game. It was a pleasure playing it.

Wow, great game! I love the chill, no-stress experience combined with the elegant simplicity of a single button gameplay... very contemplative and original, great work! Is there an end? I got to tree 21 and purchased every possible upgrade but the game kept going... In any case, this is one of my favorites.

@ahintoflime I wish I knew how to make skyboxes like that, its from AllSky Free. And thanks, I spent most of the time trying to figure out how to do the random tree generation.

@owca Thank you! Your feedback means a lot.

I really wanted to see the tree get bigger. I don't understand why this was fun, but it definately was :D Loved the sound effect of face-fruit. And the graphics are cool, I liked that I could rotate the tree and look at it from different angles. Also - I feel skull fruits should give me more points, because they are harder to click right.

Such a cool little game! Loved the random tree and the quite excentric range of fruit! Well done indeed!

Forgot the time whilst playing it. Great game!

Great game, particularly the presentation - clean, high fidelity rendering meets surreal design. The gameplay is minimalist but fits perfectly with the presentation and ties everything together nicely.

Congrats on this coherently designed and well realized entry!

I played it until everything was maxed out. As a biologist, I must say it felt a bit odd that the fruits came before the leaves and it was a bit confusing too in the beginning that the progression meant I had to start the tree over and over. I thought I did something wrong the first handful of trees. But then I enjoyed it, had a good feeling to it, but a bit sad that each tree had to die as soon as it got beautiful.

A very calm and relaxing little game. I really liked it. Well done.

Why is this so good? It's so weird and chill and I love it.

Really unique game, I really enjoyed it! The ambiance was great and I really liked watching the different trees get generated though they had a tendency to clump up in the middle. The text could be difficult to see against the background at times and I was also playing for a bit trying to get the upgrades to level 10 before I realized they only went up to 7. Overall fantastic job though!

I really like the combination of no lose condition and a mechanic based on timing! Despite how simplistic it was, I had fun just pumping those numbers up. The fruits are taken straight out of a fever dream, but in a good way, it gave things a bit of flavor.

I was particularly impressed with the shape of the trees, they seemed physically believable (they're randomly generated, right?)

Fantastic little game that i think with a little polishing would make a really soothing mobile game. Not 100% sure about the fruit growing on it (the faces and stuff didn't really fit with the main vibe i feel) but nevertheless very nice!
