Wild Growth by Leon Möhring
During the development of Wild Growth I tried to build both themes into the game. There are only two controls and you play a growing plant in a dark ravine. The plant must not touch itself or the walls.
You have to collect sun-light-sparks to create blooms and grow up.
The green plant pieces give you the possibility to create a second stem growing off of the main one.
There are 9 levels so far and maybe I will port the game to Android and add more features. It depends on the feedback.
Have fun playing the game!
CONTROLS: Left / Right Arrow Keys
NOTE: Be careful with using the fullscreen mode on webGL on some aspect ratios.
If the webGL version is lagging you die randomly. Consider downloading in that case, I think it is worth it (:

It sets the mood real nice, the controls are tight, and the level design is great, good job!
That is a game that defines "Ludum Dare" for me.
Great music, fun gameplay, stunning visuals and a nice usage of the Theme.
You Sir, did a very fine job with this one. <3
Thanks for all the awesome feedback so far, anyone interested in a post mortem mobile game?
It would be nice to have control over when the new sprout comes out, and have a delay so player can prepare to control the new sprout.
It looks so beautiful, and I'm so impressed that you recorded the piano yourself.
The graphics and audio were great, the use of theme great and it was challenging and fun. Seriously great work.
Probably one of my favorite.
Very well done.
Great job, and nice use of the theme :)
Little nit pick: I liked how the notes were pitch-bent to match the chord progression in the background, but some of the notes when collecting sparks seemed out of tune by half a pitch or so, though, which made them sound sour and dissonant. If it wasn't intended, maybe consider separate sound effects for each note for a later build?
it's cool that you can regrow from other parts, but it felt a bit weird to first intentionally die for it. I also wasn't always sure if I would regrow or it would be death. when the levels got bigger it also got difficult to see where you need to go. maybe a more zoomed out camera would've worked or like it would zoom out over time, idk. despite of that, I enjoyed playing this
I've made a short let's play video if you want to check it out:

I loved the look and graphics were awesome. Love the light/particle effects. Very cool.
