When trees fight back...

[@henryhendrixx]

I love that anytime there's a currency in a game Matt calls it quid lol

[@SexyMrNibbles]

Well, yah. Like how every American will call it a Dollar

[@LukasStilling]

Well hebis British, and we call any currency quid with pride

[@TheSleepyDog]

Am I weird or is it satisfying when he says that

The little creature looks like a cat looking around every time Matt moves the cursor 😂 it’s strangely adorable

[@Sugi-4]

i though its only me who think like that 😂, the tentacle look cute and sad at the same time 😅😢

[@herrhartmann3036]

Yeah, the way it looks around by turning its entire head definitely looks catlike. Which makes sense, really. If Mother Nature ever decided to create a monster to destroy mankind, she'd definitely base it off a cat.

[@m4c0br]

I’m glad others saw that. I thought I was going crazy. 😂

[@nikoleditzler7250]

It really really is. It feels like it is almost supposed to be creepy but the way of moves is just so adorable.

"Let's add more seeds on perfect on the penultimate round when I won't need trees any more because I've won" - Always an architect, Matt, always.

[@Infms_TacocaT]

I’m surprised Matt didn’t notice the efficiency of the half sphere trees

[@oasntet]

Neat animation on the monster, but I'm not so sure about the game design. It has a problem where the better you do, the better you do; there's a point where things go near-exponential and strategy stops mattering much, but your luck and performance in the first couple levels determines when you get onto the fast track towards winning. That's a huge problem with tower defense games where towers can be lost; if you lose more than a couple in the first levels, you're better off just restarting because there's no coming back.

[@jlnxonce8767]

That's exactly what I tought. By wave 4-5, nothing mattered anymore, it was won no matter what

[@DennouNeko]

Looking at the end seems to be more of minmaxing the score kind of game rather than combat itself being the challenge. But yeah, if you don't lose early on it won't really happen.

[@travisclements4447]

The animation is procedural

[@JACandQuill]

Hey btw Ash is the name of the creature, so when you increased Ash's distance, that was the range of your tentacles. Walking tentacles allow you to continue moving while you attack, and speed is its own separate upgrade, seen at 19:56. Why they use the plural instead of the possessive for the spelling, who knows, probably just a simple mistake but i get why it was causing you confusion

[@JACandQuill]

Correction! His name is actually "Ashes", not Ash. Which is also confusing, but my bad

[@OGCalicant]

What is ashes distance then? Is that distance to fight?

[@KunalVaidya]

few seconds into game and matt is already spreading his seed around

[@ShMokou]

No, mr. real civil architect, ash is anything but "just carbon" its mostly mineral compounds left without carbon.

[@Orofino6]

Exactly, the carbon turns into carbon dioxide leaving behind the inorganic matter.

[@funkdefied1]

[@lDarkhorsel]

What a creative and well executed idea for a tower defense type game! I love this. Hope they can maybe add more to it. Also, after Matt's utter annihilation of the pesky human invaders, fair to call him the Real Forestry Engineer?

[@TJ-dh2sr]

"Unfortunately there is no engineering [character]" he said in the end ... well ... then take the gardener ... he could count as a plant engineer with a lot of good will 👍

[@carcharoclesmegalodon6904]

Honestly, I'm afraid not really. These days gardeners are probably better than they used to, but gardening has generally more to do with trying to force plants to do what you (or your employer) wants them to, even if it's completely against their nature or common sense, than with being efficient and solving problems the optimal way.

[@GutsyGrimZ]

Finally turning against the beavers. Save the trees! Don't eat em!

Ash is carbon powder which is a left over carbon

[@jessedejong7066]

Ooo pls could you play this again, looks like fun. Would love to see another few vids of this

[@sky0kast0]

I could see some seeds underneath your trees still that you probably didn't have a chance to collect from a previous round or they just spawned near the end of the video

[@mariobosnjak99]

Ash isnt just carbon, yozre thinking about coal, carbon gets released into the atmnosphere through burning, ashes are the leftover minerals from the burning

[@diegohalliwell5374]

loved that game

[@vidyagaems4063]

Ash is not carbon... Ash is what is left when carbon is burned off. Carbon would be "soot".

[@GodRyan929]

Got the game (free on steam) 10/10 game play it. Just do it. no story spoiled cause the is none, really fun and creative game

[@briondalion]

I like how the enemy of the trees is apparently carbon....but what the hell are the trees made out of? Surely I didn't take organic chemistry courses for nothing lol

[@gachalxser4714]

I love your vidios!!! Keep it up😊😊😊

[@DerekHartley]

Boy, this game is not balanced at all. The player gets super powerful and the enemy don't scale up proportionally. Like it though, very original concept.

[@papawushutv]

looks pretty tedious but cool idea in theory

[@ignaciogallardow3655]

I got to the point where every time I open a video I automatically say "hello fellow engineers"

[@Scare-_-Crow]

Im pretty sure "Ash" is the character's name what you extract from enemies is only carbon not ash as you aren't burning them. Oh ya and the tree you are protecting is "Gaia".
