They say that constraints enhance creativity. For my entry, I chose to use all the *three* LD34 themes at once: Growing, 2 buttons control, and… “It’s a tie!”.

So I’m proudly presenting my little game, titled “Growing Ties”:

You run a tie shop. Patrons want to get custom ties.
Can you cut a tie at the right size for each one of your patrons?

Use Right Arrow key to grow a tie.
Use Left Arrow key to cut it.
The tie will fall down, and hopefully reach a patron.

Be careful to cut right-sized ties!
A perfect-sized tie matches the height of the patron’s shirt.

You’ll get 10 points for such a perfectly fitting tie, but less points if the tie is too long or too short. Of course, Patrons varies greatly in size and shape!

Cut several perfect ties in a row to get bonus “combo” points.

Play & Rate the game

Enjoy!
