The Monkey and the Tree

Hello there! This is "The Monkey and the Tree". After scrapping my initial idea, which was way too difficult design-wise, I came up with this game, where the goal is to grow a tree from nothing.

Also, this is the first time I created music, so please don't hesitate to click the mute button in the main menu.

If you feel like it, you can try beating my highscore, which is 142892 points.

About

The little monkey needs a high, very high, tree to climb on. He wants it to be at least 100 meters high!

Controls

Use the mouse. Move it from left to right and right to left to get the tree to grow. Wider movements make the tree grow wider, which gives you more points. The location of the movement controls the direction in which the tree will grow.
