Really nice idea and well executed. I could see this being an addictive little game once developed. A bit slow for me as it is.
Quite fun, felt a bit hard to keep up with humans cutting down trees, the gameplay could also be just a bit faster, also love the trees!
This was incredibly addicting and overall just a great little game, great job on this!
What a unique concept! Loveeeee the overall aesthetics of your game, suuuper well done :D
First of all, the color palette and pixel art is impressive! The music is also really great, remind me of Hotline Miami. The concept is very cool, but I find the game a bit hard and fast (which don't go too well with the music I think).
First off, the art and music are stellar! A very nice vibe here. I did find the pace very slow, especially at the beginning, and it often felt like I was losing trees through no fault of my own - I just wasn’t being given water to defend myself. I think with a few more mechanics to spice things up and a bit of balancing, this could be a great strategy game!
Very fun! I do think that the pace is a bit too slow in the beginning, but overall the art, gameplay, and polish is really really good
What a nice game with such a suitable gameplay, sound effects and art! I should say I feel so chill when playing and it is emerging.
This is a really charming game! Loved the art style, the music, and the animations.
Though I did run into some situations where the humans just ignore the rabbits and just go for the trees. That felt kind of punishing because it takes some time for the water orbs to regenerate, and until they do, a tree has already fallen, i.e., they are expensive.
This was a great little game, nice use of the theme. The music and animation was really nice :D Great job !!
Really nice looking but much too slow and punishing in the beginning. When it finally ramps up it becomes really fun but the balance is forked. If polished it could really be a full game.
Beautiful and a really interesting concept. I wanted to restart to get a better run which is the hallmark of it being an enjoyable and fun jam game I think 🌞🌲🌲🌲 I love the interpretation of the theme and the pixel graphics are beautiful. The UI is stunning!
Interesting concept! I love the visuals to it as well, this was very well executed!
I like the roles reversed from civilization building and doing a forest building game instead. Game was a bit slow, but it was nice to relax. It looks great!
Very cute and relaxing game.

-Neat game indeed!! Please check out my non-creative entry when you can :D
such a cute and cosy game, love the concept as well
Impressive art and music! I enjoyed being a forest:)
:D awesome game. I love that I, as a tree, tricked a rabbit take an axe blow for me.
