Tangle root

by Markus Tinnf盲lt & Adam Ramberg

You play as a tangle root, trying to reach all watchers. They will refill your energy, that enables you to continue your journey.

Controls:

Use the arrow keys to grow.

Once a new node of the root has been grown, you can travel through them without losing energy

Hold left shift to enter Safe Mode - travel through nodes without accidently grow new nodes.

Hold space and press an arrow key to cut of a root in that direction



Hints

You don't need cut before level 4.

You don't need cut on every level.

very original concept, and fun to play. but often when i want to step back in the tree of nodes it start a new branch, can be frustrating. good game overall though!

I understand zguerrero! We tried to fix that with Safe Mode (holding shift wont make new branches) but it might be a bit unclear. Thanks for your input!

Cool idea! I kept getting stuck on the second level where I would have like 15 nodes available and when I connected to an eye it would go to 0 and I couldn't finish...

glodemaster, thanks for your comment. That is actually part of the puzzle. The hint on that level may help you solve it!

This is a very well built game, and the art and sound was amazing. Please do tell me this wasn't made by one person. ;)

Wow, awesome looking game, congratulations!

Great concept, good sound and good graphics. The difficulty of the levels is also well balanced. I also like how you introduce safe mode/cut mode.
