From the Devs
Ever wondered 'what if I was a tree'? Seek no further, Heliotropism is here.
In this rogue-like tree-building game, your goal is to last long enough to bear fruit in a harsh environment. Grow your tree, manage your resources, obtain mutations, mitigate crises and survive cold winters to get to the fourth year.
Key Features
Resource management: Grow your tree carefully, spending energy that you generate to place tree parts so that you can generate more. Just beware of winter: no energy and no leaves means that the tree is dead
Evolve your tree: As you go through the game, you can collect a plethora of mutations that not only make your tree stronger but change the optimal playstyle to something unique every run.
Unpredicted Challenges: Survive different crises every playthrough, from a small breeze to forest fires, these are coming after your tree. Plan ahead and mitigate what you can, survival is not an easy task
