Warning: art game. Directions are in the game. One player, or multiple players on one keyboard. Everyone must try to keep the environment lush.

Here’s my quick treatment. The player starts with a simplistic, empty field. A single plant grows from the soil, in it is a single letter. The player must tap the corresponding key to nurture the plant. More plants, of other varieties grow around it. The player must tap their keys, nurturing them too. Resources are limited - the color given to the flowers comes from the sun. The game is about balancing resource with effort – like most preservation or conservation. The game is intentionally challenging and “delicate.”

I hope that make sense. This is similar to my critical gameplay games (criticalgameplay.com). I noticed the typo on the title page, so i'll try to correct that before he official close of our event.

Here are the instructions:

Allow the flower to grow
1. When it is fully grown, keep it through nurture. Press the letter on your keyboard
2. Manage your resources, do not spend everything on a single flower. Your resources are shown in the sun.
3. Spell extinction to beat extinction. Keep the letters e,x,t,I,n,c,t,I,o,n on the screen, allowing all the flowers to exist in the same space.
4. Press [esc] to end game, or wait
