Sapling - Jam Version
Made for the Go Godot Jam 2021: GROWTH
Sprout your sapling and race to the sunlight with what little energy you can gather. How fast can you reach the tree tops.
Controls:
- Left/Right Mouse Click & drag to aim your sapling's stem and branches
- Release LMB/RMB to grow stem or branch
- [R] to restart level
Mechanics:
- Escape the tree canopy to reach the sun
- Use energy to grow sapling
- Stems gain you height and allow two (2) branches to be grown
- Branches spawn leaves based on their length
- Collect sunlight as it spawns using your leaves
- Sunlight spawns throughout the level constantly but spawns slow down over time
- Longer stems and branch segments are more expensive to grow
- Stems are restricted to an upward trajectory

I like the game and all, but holly cow that last level, i was stuck like 30 min or so, even so pretty enjoyable
This is a great game! The music is so hypnotizing and soothing, and the pixelart making up the forest background is incredibly beautiful. It was fun learning how exactly to work the stem/branch growing. Great idea and implementation!
This is very good :)
Maybe a view of the entire sapling once the end of the level is reached could be a nice addition.
Such a great idea, will definitely go on the future updates board ^_^
The idea is so clever and the gameplay is yet very enjoyable. Cute game indeed, my favorite game of the jam so far ! :D
