> TL;DR: In "The Last Guardian" you are tasked with keeping the last Tree of Life alive. Keep tree watered by manipulating weather, protect it by fighting invading monsters and growing friends. Rain clouds have various effects in this game. The better you take care of your tree, the better it takes care of you. Controls are explained in-game (gamepad recommended). Game takes around 7 minutes to finish, if you prevail ;)
#### A full game in the works!
Huge thanks to everyone for great feedback and reception! We decided to develop "The Last Guardian" into a full-blown game. It will need a new name before it is done, as the current name is trademarked (who knew?!). You can stay updated about our progress at itch.io https://limboofwonders.itch.io/the-last-guardian-full-game or on our newly-created twitter http://twitter.com/limboofwonders.
In “The Last Guardian”, you will be doing your best to keep the last Tree of Life, well, alive.
