One Seed

You are stuck on an island with a shovel and a seed. Controls:
Arrow keys = walk
space = jump
ctrl = interact.

This is my first Ludum Dare which wasn't well planned. Have a math exam tomorrow and my stepmother had a birthday party. Oh well, this is at least something!

Wow it's a lot of types of trees, nice :D

One little bug that i found is that you interact while jumping, so the hole goes to a wrong place. Good game.

Thanks!

Oh yeah, didn't think about interacting while jumping. I was just mashing that digging/planting code together in the end.

Glad you liked it! :)

Can i just plant a tree? Very frustrating cause i love the graphics and i would have loved to create a world step by step.

Yup, sorry. I planned for more but I had much other stuff that kept me busy. I just sent this in even though it isn't really finished, just so that people can see those beautiful trees, lol. Will probably continue developing this after Ludum though.

Nice tree growing effect, some 2nd/3rd level branches would add some variation. Good work given you didn't get the full weekend!

I love procedural trees and those are nice. Not much gameplay, but the style has potential. I hope you did well at your exam, I love LD but studies and family are indeed more important.

Sad there isn't too much to rate here. The controls were weird, the guy was tough to handle, as he was waaaaay too fast.
Then planting the seed and seeing that tree was quite satisfying. But then it left me frustrated. Wanted to do more. WAY more. I restarted it a couple of times to see it grow and grow in different places and into different shapes. Looks pretty nice.
So nice graphics, nice idea... pity it didn't give more. Has potential.
