Untitled Tree Game by jordizzle

[raw]
made by jordizzle for LD22 (COMPO)
Click trees to chop them down. Once you've chopped enough trees, you can begin building wooden drones to do the work for you.

My original intent was to have wooden drones mine stone to build stone drones, and stone drones mine iron to help you build a ship to get off the island you were deserted on, but it didn't work out how I expected. Next time I'll know what to expect!

Hehehe, its a weird kind of lil game, but the visuals are charming, and its fun to see your little robots doing their thing. They get stuck pretty easily though, dont they?

Haha, love the sprites! I love these sorts of resource-feedback-loop style games...pity the stone/iron stuff didn't work out, but nice work on what's here!

Also...I do believe I will develop carpal tunnel from too much tree clicking now. xD

Not sure how it relates to the theme but I liked the concept and it was fun even though the pathfinding is a little off. Graphics were pretty cool and I like the overall feel of the game!

The original story was gonna be you got stranded on an island, and you have to use your engineering knowledge to build drones to get you materials to build a ship to get back home :P

Despite the incomplete nature of the game, it's one of the ones I've njoyed the most. very nice graphics and sounds and the systems that are present are basically fun. I'd love to see this expanded further.

Problems with the game as is: Trees seem to often end up outside the viewable/clickable area, and tree planeters seem to often get stuck trying to plant a tree in the 'cave'. Also if you don't build a tree planter at first you can get yourself stuck without wood, which is a little annoying.

doesn't fully run under WINE, so I can't give it a proper rating (controls are iffy and sound does not work)

I'd love to thank everyone who voted for me, regardless of what you voted! Thank you so much for taking time to try my game, and thank you for the compliments! I will be trying my best to complete this game :)! I may make it a bit more player interactive now that I'm not restricted by the alone theme :)
