Roots of Sylvania
Made in 7 days for the New Year, New Skills game jam.
A strategy game where you build the roots of a tree to gain resources and train units to drive off orc invaders from the forest.
This is our first game jam game, created for the New Year, New Skills game jam hosted by Bitter Sails Games. The jam theme was "Building Connections".
Hope you enjoy the game! Thanks for playing.
Tips:
- In the early game, focus on balancing building units and building roots to develop your base, unlock units, and increase your population cap.
- Retreat your units when necessary by hitting the Defend button when the fight appears to be lost
- Distribute your roots to find as many Essence Stones as possible

really cute game and really cool concept with the roots!! artstyle is on point and loveable!
thanks so much for the video! :D
Awesome!!!!
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed :)
I love the game so much!! The pixel art is super pretty, the music very cool, and the gameplay is super smart. After a first lose, I wanted to just play again until I manage to beat it, and the grow in "power" with the essence collection ends up being quite thrilling. I loved that growing roots makes you discover new things in the ground as. And connecting them to mushrooms is very fitting to how trees work IRL too, I loved that idea! Congratulations!!
Hey thanks so much for the kind words and for playing our game! I'm glad you stuck with it and beat the game in the end :D
