Tower Defense!
Grow your forest while an increasing number of bulldozers try to take it down. Each tree is controlled by two buttons (hah!):

If you click the "Next Wave in X time" you actually trigger the next wave right there and then. Technically a debug feature that's still there.

* Grow / Work: Grow your tree bigger (upgrade) at a life points cost. Or have it work.
* Defend / Produce: If your tree is working, it can either be defending or producing.

There's three types of trees:
* Tree of Life - produces life points (every other tree consumes this, and you need for growing the tree). Has no defend capability.
* Apple Tree - produces apples, which unfortunately aren't used for anything. However, in defend mode this is your attack tree as it launches apples.
* Spruce - this tree produces wood, which you need to build trees. In defend mode it builds a barrier around itself as a defensive structure.

In case you can't tell - I ran out of time. However, most of the basic mechanics are done.

I will add more platform builds - still trying to get WebGL working :-(

Probably should've read the description on your trees first :) I like Tower Defense games. This was pretty cool too. Some soothing music while your forest gets wiped out.

Like this challenge you fixed yourself. It's one of the most original type of games that I see there. This is a great game!

Wow, I really like this! I spent a good hour getting to wave 12, which seemed to bug out a bit (bulldozers spawning off the map with others going in the wrong direction). This has a ton of potential if the balance was adjusted, such as making the apple trees less overpowered when you have a lot of them. Very well done!

Interesting concept, love the music. It could be a big game, you have done well since you've got only 48 hours like everybody else. I would love to play if you build it into something :)

This was a neat concept, although it was sometimes difficult to see the effect of various actions. I also think there might have been a bug with integer overflow - somehow, I ended up with two bulldozers with 4 billion health on the second wave.

Fore some reason my appletree stop firing sometime. I dont undestand why. It seems that the apple become very small until I cant see them.

The music is really nice :) And building of the trees too. It seems unfinished and unballanced. But I had nice 10 minutes of playing :) Thanks!
