Trellis

trel·lis (noun)
a frame of latticework used as a screen or as a support for climbing plants

I want to see if I can do more with this concept, so I'd love to hear your feedback in the comments below! You can also follow the game to see any future updates if you'd like.

Originally made for GMTK Jam 2024: "Built to Scale". Play as a plant and scale the side of a building using trellises. The plant will attempt to grow towards your mouse when you hold it down.

Such a beautiful game! The last level made me realise how high the plant can grow directly upwards, and I enjoyed replaying keeping that in mind. The music and gameplay are very relaxing and I love the idea.

Great job! 🌟

This is the greatest, most beautiful game ever created. I could see this being expanded in so many directions!

Looks so good, would love to play but I'm not on windows unfortunately! Perhaps you could add support of other platforms too, now that the jam is over?
