Immortal Growth by Evergreen Games
Grow from Hero to Deity to God as you protect your followers through the ages of Liberation, War and Calamity.
Explanation of Gameplay:
The overall idea is to keep 1 or more of your followers alive through the 3 ages/levels in order to win the game.
- In level 1 your objective is to rescue your followers from the prison and get them safely across the chasm. (Hint: Keeping the mouse button held down will cup your hand so your followers will stay in your hand. You have to move them gently or they will fall out.)
- In level 2 your objective is to wipe out all the enemies by either toppling the tower on them or stomping them (hard downward motion with the mouse while holding either button). You can also attempt to block some of the enemy spears, although this is tricky.
- In level 3 you block the falling objects from hitting your followers with your hands. Be careful not to accidentally stomp your followers. You are a big and dangerous, after all.

moves Left Side
and closes left hand
+ Right Mouse Hold:
moves right side
and closes right hand

The game could be improved by introducing steps one at a time so the player has a better time understanding the game.
The game has a few bugs mostly involving interacting with the people. Namely getting them to stay in your hand.
but your graphic is very attract.
Audio was good, although the music was highly repetitive.
The control itself felt clunky at times when I couldn't grab what I wanted/release it where I wanted.
Was struggling a little with understanding game mechanics (i.e. this shift of gameplay from level to level).. still was able to finish it :)
Would love to be able to move the Hero/Deity/God! (felt a little bit strange that it/I was sliding back and forth).
Btw.: What soft did you use for the main character animations?

Overall, a very confusing game with a neat "klutz-simulating" mechanic that leaves the player more frustrated than laughing with the game.
