a Tree...
a Tree is a collaborative asynchronous multiplayer game.
Play as a root to find water so you keep your tree healthy.
The health of the tree depends of what the player do, so if a lot of players doesn't find much water the tree become sick (as every root created cost a little energy), viceversa if the player get a lot of water the tree will become healthy.
The underground is automatically generated every time you play :P
NOTE: If the game freezes on the web version (found on gamejolt) try the standalone verion (either windows, osx, linux or android).
The game is playable on Web (requires Unity web player), Windows, OSX, linux & android.
Please note that OSX and linux builds are not tested.
Android requires the following:
Network communication - is needed to send score via internet
Phone calls - it's used for retrieving the device id, no other data is collected (for more info https://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/SystemInfo-deviceUniqueIdentifier.html)

@KevinWorkman: Yes the other roots are the paths that other player have taken.
The rocks and water is procedurally generated every new play.
I got a score of 8, not sure if thats a good or a bad score.
Moving on - incredible take on the terms "Beneath the surface"
Very impressed with this one. The fact that other players have an input on how this game is incredible; and the root view... oh my!
I confess it's not a game I'd spend much time playing; but seeing the collaboration of all the people who have played it impresses me greatly! It's more like a game-styles experiment, I suppose?
You get my vote :)
I like the root view
But I like the mood and use of the theme !
Are all the roots behind the roots of the other players ? That's an amazing idea !
A big collaborative game
Good game ! :)
Innovation isn't the correct word to our game!
I really love the idea. But you need to work more in your gameplay to became rich.
Really awesome little masterpiece you have here!
nice atmosphere :)
