Harvesting not fruits and vegetables, but... organs...?

A roguelite organ fest where you grow trees from your fallen enemies' organs, then harvest the result for more money, more power, more... blood?

Unlock tools that allow you to fertilize the dead body's organs, so they can grow into healthy meat trees! ^^

Your best friend is the store, shown upon dying! All the cool kids use the store.

Controls:

- Arrow keys/WASD to move
- space/mouse click to attack
- E to interact
- Use your mouse during the harvesting interface to select tools, and interact with the organs.

Fertilizing tutorial

When opening the body fertilizing the first times, you will see this message:

But fear not! All you have to do is die, and you'll get to the store where you can buy tools, like this one:

This will open the full fertilizing interface:

At first all actions will shown as question marks:

You can experiment and try, but if you're feeling less adventurous, look for some knowledge book upgrades, like these:

As for actual "fertilizing": red organs are broken and cannot be used anymore, green ones are "validated"

And validated organs will make the body grow into a tree once you're done with it!
Protect these are they are very valuable!

When fully grown, interact with them to gain precious money to unlock more upgrade!

I had planned an overarching goal, an ending boss, something like that, but didn't have the time, since I started on the saturday and basically lost a day... (there is still a slight chance of a big baddie spawning though, watch out!)

Didn't make the cut (due to time)

- Harvesting on bodies that save their data when you leave to come back to it a bit later (sorry :()
- A final boss (something to end the game, to avoid that neverending loop as it is right now)
- More enemies variety
- A tutorial! And clearer harvesting UI.
- Sound
- Animations, transitions...
- Pause menu, main menu, settings, all that...
