I love that it is kind of like a puzzle game. Reminds me of the game called "Out There" in some ways

Nice chill puzzle game. It feels like a solid foundation but the next step would be to come up with a placement of the "resources" that would make the game more challenging and strategic (in my opinion). But great for a Jam entry!

Wow, first of all, really nice looking game, great pixel art. I think I finished the game, because I got all the resources, but it would've been nice if there was a 'end'. Overall nice little puzzle game. Gekoloniseerd :)

Good solid gameplay🙌

the mood is nice and chill. i really liked the pixel graphics and pastel colors. though the stone background could have been something that fit the overall aesthetics more. :)

Nice little game, I managed to connect all the roots. Would have been nice if there was a bit more of an event when reaching your goal!

I loved playing this game. It is very intuitive how to manage the roots, and the simplicity of this makes it even more fun. Good job!

Great concept! I really like this gameplay take on the "deeper and deeper" theme. Also great how the music changes whenever you're underground!

I like how the music changes as you go deeper :). Animation's very nice :). Cool idea, sound effects.

like the idea and soundtrack. I just couldn't get to the last resource^^

Nice one! The music changing with depth was a cool touch (although, I think I would have prefered it to feel more in continuity, rather than such a drastic change in style). A nice puzzle, pretty graphics. As soon as I saw Boom, I thought Nederlands. Gefeliciteerd, heele mooie entry!

Beautiful pixel art :3, the music and sounds were very pleasent to hear,
I wasn't able to gather some resources in the left, the roots couldn't reach them... (wait I decided to give it a third try and I made it! hahah :D)
Such a beautiful game, congratulations team!!

Also the little picture of the tree is amazing!!

Pretty interesting idea, and the music was really appropriate. It was a little easy, though, although I can't think off the top of my head how you could make it harder. Good job!

Nice little game, it was fun and relaxing to play! If you added some event that shows the player when they have finished the game, it would be even more rewarding to play. This could be a great mobile game if you added more levels to play! :)

Fun and cute game, nice concept. Well executed. The music was calming but that guitar riff is now stuck in my head all day and it's slightly out of tune!
