I Am Tree by AthenaOfDelphi
I Am Tree!
You play tree... an apple tree as it happens. The aim of the game is to grow apples. To do this, you must feed tree using a beetle army to collect food and water (be careful, they don't like munching the wrong thing).
When you are healthy (your leaves are green), you may sprout a flower or two.
In the spring and summer, bees come along. They can pollinate the flowers in the spring. In the summer and autumn, wasps come along. They can eat your apples.
You have some tricks up your sleeve to help.
Enjoy... I have enjoyed making it.

The idea is to grow apples... feed the tree using the bugs and in the spring, flowers will grow. The bees fly past and pollinate them. There should be more to that but right now you just let them fly past them. Then when the season changes to summer, the pollinated flowers turn into apples. You click the apple to hide it (they only stay hidden a while, so get your timing right) when a wasp flies by. If you don't, the wasp eats it. At the end of autumn, if you've got apples left on the tree, it levels up to grow more apples.
Hope that helps :)
and then it crashed after some time.
it still was a fun little idea
But, what is the name of the font on the intro screen please, it's gorgeous?
@Silvio - I'd be interested if you could send me the log file (check out my blog for my contact details or message me on Twitter).
@tyrants.not.found.team - The font is '8-bit limit' and it's available free for commercial use from 1001fonts.com. If the cursor moved underground it would be too easy to line up your beetles... keeping it above ground makes it a little trickier. If the control hints at the bottom of the screen show beetles, you can click to create them.
Thanks for all the feedback thus far :)
