You weren't kidding; that's a lot of bloom! In all seriousness, great models and adorable tree spirits. Waiting for the spirits to replenish was a bit of a pain, but watching them waddle around the tree eliminated any boredom that may have caused.

I love so much your game, the concept is very original and I love so much the ambience, with graphics, music and the little people. But I found a little bug with controls, if we go at the border of the map we can't go bad at the center, so we have to close the game and restart, and you also can add a tutorial or some explanation on what does wich "button" and more information about when we will lose.

I like this little city builder game! One thing that could be improved is adding a description when hovering a UI item because I wasn't sure what everything did. Other than that, good job, really!

What a lovely game. Watching little tree spirits wobble around while carrying giant fruits is just adorable. You've made a great choice for background music, because it helps to set the mood just right. To make the game even more adorable I would suggest making tree spirits to trip over once in a while (like little mushroom people do in Dark Souls).
