About

The evil hordes are marching towards the sacred groves!

In the heart of the groves, the Aether Tree stands tall, and you must protect it at all costs!

Can you endure the waves of evil minions and defeat their leader and save the realm?

Features

  • A healthy grove provides you a good amount of Aether, a pivotal resource for this task.
  • Ensure your grove flourishes and plant various trees, all with different behaviours:
    • When grown they provide various passive benefits.
    • And when the time comes, turn them into fierce treants!
    • However as treants, they lose their passive abilities, while they gain active ones!
  • Repel the melee Devilkins and Brutes, the fiery Imps, and keep the Scorchers at distance because they set your grove aflame!
  • Defeat their gargantuan leader and bring peace to the land once again.

Features that didn’t make it?

  • Tree which deals periodically poison damage around itself. As a treant, it deals poison damage.
  • Tree which slows enemies in an area. As a treant, it roots a target.
  • A petard-like enemy that charges into your grove and explodes.
  • “Biome system”: You can only plant nearby grass tiles, and trees convert sand tiles into grass. Grass tiles generate Aether.
  • “Realistic” fire the jumps from tree to tree, and some mechanic to put out the fire
  • Unique boss fight
  • Tents and campfires indicating spawn locations.
