How to play:

Grow your Evertree! As your Evertree grows, it'll open the door to more creatures and more resources.

• Enter your Evertree Spirit's name and click Start!
• Right-click on the Evertree card to see what you materials need  to help it grow.
• Stack your player card (Tree Spirit) on other cards to churn out materials but watch out! Each player card has a limited life span.
• Right-click on any card for more information. Some interactions are also only available through the right-click panel.
• In the event of a bandit attack, use water to fend off fire while attacking the bandits with your player card.
• Careful, don't let your Evertree burn!

Help:

• A card spawned at the border! I can't reach it!
  You can move the camera using WASD keys to reach the card
• The Evertree requires materials that I don't have
  Try interacting with Chef to unlock more creatures who might be able to help you
• I can't pick up my player card! or
• I can see the health bar through the cards (and other visual glitches)
  Whoops! Sorry, there are still a lot of bugs in the game. We lost our insect repellant right before the game jam started.

"Permanence"

Even though life is impermanent, while we are alive, we can make changes that lead to permanent improvements to society that can be felt generations after. Our life is temporary but our legacy will last forever.

The more the Evertree grows, the more it provides. Each Evertree Spirit works diligently to help the Evertree grow so that their descendants can have a better life.

Notes:

Like all game jam projects, this was rushed out in 7 days and many things in the original scope were not able to make it into the submission. 

As a result, the game as it is probably seems a little empty, aimless and very confusing. But we hope that it'll give you a rough glimpse of the game's potential and that you'll look forward to our future updates.
