Grow! by fede0d

[raw]
made by fede0d for LD34 (COMPO)
Endless mazes! Run agains the clock and find the exit.

A seed has sprouted in the deep. Guide the plant trough the deep mazes and out to the bright light of the sun.
You have to find the exit before the plant dies.

Oxigen: find the exit before the sprout suffocates.
Nutrients: eat rats to stay strong and move faster.

Infinite mazes: you can play in tiny and simple mazes or enormous and difficult.


Only two buttons input: left and right to move the plant.


I used Godot Engine to make it.
Also: Inkscape, Gimp, Audacity, LMMS.

The game is available for Android mobile phones and tablets.

Yeap, Godot is great. It works flawlessly for this kind of rapid prototyping/gameplay testing.

Fantastic polish and depth! My only gripe is that the T-intersections are extremely frustrating to turn at.

This game didn't scale well to a high DPI OnePlusOne screen, and the sound was a bit one note, but good game in other aspects.

Nice game. I realize the controls are the challenge, but they feel a bit too clunky.
It would be nice if the water didn't start running out until the first input came in.

Controls cover a lot of screen but work well, Graphics are pretty good, but the sounds....

A fellow Godot user! I installed the game on my phone but haven't played it yet, but I wanted to try and run the source code to see if it has keyboard controls, but the project has issues opening. Was this project made in Godot 2.0? I think that's probably the issue, cuz I'm using 1.1 (I like things stable)

@batmanasb Yes I used a custom build of the latest source.

Great concept, but the movement can be a little frustrating, especially when trying to exit the level. I kept narrowly missing it, and then dying.

Nice game! Risky to do it only for android but the game is really good, if you polished the effects and graphics a bit more It could become a popular game in Google Play

Aww okay, 2.0 projects aren't backwards compatible, but that's fine. Anyways, I tried it and the controls are a little annoying, I'd highly recommend you implement pacman style controls where it remembers the last direction you pressed and turns there as soon as it can.

Controls require a bit too much precision, especially for touch screen. Sometimes it also feels like I lack just one second to win due to how level generates.

Great game, controls need a little workover.
Overall a very cool entry!
Keep up the good work with godot!

Like the concept, how the theme is realised, but I managed to bug the game where both of the possible texts overlapped... but the game is awesome and I like it.
