Sprout
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
You feel gentle a thump as you land in the warm tropical sand. Who are you? Who do you want to be? Something in your heart whispers of shade, majesty, and acorns. What does this mean?
Your mother waves to the east. On the far side of the ocean is a world! Plants and animals! Mountains and valleys! Birds and flowers and a forest of mighty oaks. Yes! You know that this is who and what you are meant to be: an oak.
Your parents can't teach you how to be an oak. The only one who can teach you how to be an oak is another oak. Still, your parents teach you what they can - the way of the coconut. This will give you the ability to cross to the mainland, and be one step closer to your goal. It's not much, but it's a start!
In Sprout, you will embark on a casual, botanical-puzzle-adventure. You will make friends, learn new skills, solve puzzles, and ultimately become the mighty oak that you were always meant to be.

This was quite an adventure, a really enjoyable one at that.
5/5
Super little game. Plays nice. Art and animations are great. Well worth a play.
Thank you for this short little puzzle game!

I really like the artstyle, i found it very charming.
on the gameplay side of things i do wish there was more of a branching path. Each step only has one right option and everything else just takes you back and i would love it if different choices took you down different paths
i loved pics.
