I'm working on an effect where roots/vines will grow and trip you or something. I'm probably not going to cover an entire level like this, but I had to try it out.

Just confirmed, and yep, it's running great on Steam Deck so far, and working well with its controls.

*Very* early WIP of a Sisyphus-themed level idea, still just trying things to see if feels like the right kind of miserable

1. This game needs more enemy types but designing them takes so much time.
2. The game already has trees, though.
3. What if the trees were the enemies?
4. What if that was a whole game?

Definitely. I have a Deck, so I'll for sure be testing it on there

Eyes now follow suspicious trees instead of always staring lifelessly forward. It's a little thing, but it seemed like it might be a fun detail.

Yes (Not by me, but I commissioned it from an illustrator). It's gotten some accusations of being AI, but we iterated on the design, I have the early sketches and the source files, and the artist has been doing this style for years, so it seems legit to me.

The Steam page for Trees Hate You has only been up for about 2 days, and already over 3 thousand people have added to their wishlist!
Thank you to everyone who wishlisted or shared my silly little game. It's makes me excited for the future as I keep working on this.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! It's exciting seeing one of more silly random ideas start to turn into something

Yeah, as I've made the game longer, I've needed to make the traps more elaborate to keep things fresh. So there's less of simply getting shot or crushed and more of other weird stuff in between

I think I'll keep teasing players with an axe just out of reach.

With the way I previously made the demo end, this is my idea so far on how to extend Trees Hate You for additional levels.

Thanks for trying it out! Yeah, I'm going to do another pass on that level and probably add a checkpoint or two.

Wow, this got a lot more attention than I expected, I guess I should finish making this game after all.
I don't have a steam page ready yet, so until then if you want to support a game about mean trees, you can sign up for my newsletter(tykenn.games), and I'll let you know when you can wishlist it.

Yeah, I'm trying to rely more on gags and traps and less on awkward controls like a lot of rage games. So hopefully it'll be infuriating (in a funny way), but not necessarily difficult

Yeah, it's very fun working on this. And liberating to take a break from other projects and just be a troll with this one

I revisited my "Trees Hate You" project. I'm just continuing to come up with new ways to get bullied by foliage. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame #ragegame
