As someone who doesn't like storms, the &quot;lighting round&quot; was particularly affecting.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The click and throw controls felt a little sticky at times when the beetles would only get moved but not thrown.

Then, there was the sapling. And so on.\r\n\r\nAnd during all of that, there were the dangers of nature.\r\nDefend your tree!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCONTROLS\r\nA mouse is needed. You play with the left mouse button. Scroll bar will also be useful, or you can use W\/S or up\/down arrow keys.\r\n\r\nREQUIREMENTS\r\n- Java, at least 1.7\r\n- Screen resolution of at least 1280x720 (16:9 is a must, otherwise you get a weird aspect ratio thing going on)\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWorked on this thing for about 40 hours total. Code & soundtracks were done by me (JangoBrick), art was done by a friend of mine who'd like to stay anonymous.\r\nBig shoutout to her! Great work, if you ask me!","title":"Keep Growing"}
