I got really sad towards the ending and actually felt real anger towards the humans. Fantastically done, you might should've let the player have a little big of a bigger play area and play for longer before the humans came so that the player got a stronger attachment but even though how short it was, I got really attached to them. So well done. The only complain might be that you couldn't press ESC to deselect any tree and that the music could've had a smoother transition when it looped (the loop was long enough that it didn't bother me though). Really well done!\nThe music was also good fit with the game, the graphics was good and the controls was intuitive, click -> click.","likes":4,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Retti01","author_uid":"1143103","time":"2019-05-01T07:18:24Z","epoch":1556695104,"modified":1556695104,"text":"Really makes you think.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Xeke-Death","author_uid":"1002631","time":"2019-05-01T07:20:02Z","epoch":1556695202,"modified":1556695202,"text":"My beautiful forest! \n\nGreat work, I think I started off too slow, taking my time to find the closest to the edge when I should have been spamming those trees as much as I could.\n\nKeyboard shortcuts for the trees would make my forest a much more impressive place.\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Adam Elaoud","author_uid":"1074033","time":"2019-05-01T07:22:13Z","epoch":1556695333,"modified":1556695333,"text":"Wow, now this was a super fun game to play.
