Heliotropism

Great game, Just hate having a nice tree then getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥ because it rains all year while going back and forth with floods every few days.

Hard and confusing, yet oddly rewading.

Friendly, and active developer :) Interesting concept Engaging gameplay (for the price point :p ) Great narrator voice Actually interesting facts about trees Discord link can be found in the "readme" file in the game's base directory.

Hey hey friends and Folks, for this game combines the relaxing part of an sandbox growth-game with tactical decisions of an rouge-like game like Kingdome or Until we die. the Dev-Team is pretty into their Idea of this game and continually improving it. Look for yourself for this Price this game is a hidden Gem and deservs a lot more Love

Heliotropism is a roguelike Tree simulator with far more depth than it has at first glance Worth a buy!

[h1]Boring...[/h1] Heliotropism is way too simple. You can only build 3 types of tiles: root, stem and leaf. Extending your roots into the ground or amassing enough fruits (which you get automatically and quite often) lets you unlock some Mutations. These give you some passive bonuses or a few active abilities that can be used once a season/year to mitigate crises. Crises happen often, and don't do a whole lot of damage (at least the ones I got, playing for 1 hour). I have no idea what, exactly, happens during winter. Turns are gone, and time just passes on its own. All I know is I survived 2 of them without preparing ahead or doing anything differently. That's it -- that's the [i]whole[/i] game. I appreciate the general idea of Heliotropism but, as it is, it's [i]way[/i] too simple to be entertaining for more than a few minutes. Playing on "standard difficulty," you quickly end up with a whole lot of resources and no reason whatsoever to keep building the same 3 tiles. After 30 minutes you start to get bored; after 60, you give up because to keep going feels absolutely pointless. I think the purpose of this game is literally to make you [i]sleepy[/i], as even the Narrator makes such a reference, having yawned more than once during the brief time I played. It didn't even work to that end for me, though.

surprised i didnt review this sooner, good game, funny narration, relaxing!
