Indie Krampus will look at all the entries of a jam, and those that he likes will get an orange 🍊 for standing out and being creative.
Today Indie Krampus will look at Trijam, a challenging little game jam where each contestant must try and make something playable in under 3 hours! The theme of Trijam is trees, and all the games will follow it one way or another.
Make sure to check out Trijam, and look up the entries yourself!
Bonsai By Numbers
This is a neat little 3D puzzle game, where you build a tree by chaining the correct numbers. If you want a sort of reverse jenga with numbers, you will really enjoy this one. 🍊 This one gets a orange for having a creative idea that could become a complex puzzle.
The Haunted Forest
This is a simplistic puzzle game where you must chop the evil trees and avoid cutting to many good trees or getting yourself killed. This game takes the minesweeper formula one step further, and while at first it looks very simple, it is actually quite challenging.
🍊 This one gets a orange for being almost as fun and addictive as minesweeper.
A Forest And A Little Red Square
An interesting physics puzzle where you must use physics to your advantage to navigate the hand drawn terrain. You cannot jump, and must improvise. If the unique graphic style does not attract you to this game, the creative use of physics in this puzzle definitely will captivate you.
🍊 This one gets a orange for great hand drawn graphics and a unique puzzle idea.
TeamNoTrees
A simple shooter where you need to take out growing red trees. You have a variety of weapons, and a few minutes to take out your anger on trees.
Hachi No Ki
If you ever wanted a Tamagotchi for a plant, this is the bonsai growing puzzle/simulation for you.
Arborium
A sandbox puzzle game where, with no real objective, you must use the mouse to grow trees into weird shapes.
OxyTree
A world simulation/puzzle game where you must balance resources to plant plenty of trees, and prevent the world from running out of oxygen.
Xylem
An unique take on the tree theme, you are a little droplet that must navigate its way up a tree in this puzzle platformer.
Tree Bowling
A silly physics puzzle where you shoot logs down a bowling lane to knock down trees and score points.
Minimum Spanning Tree
A unique math based game, where you must link vertexes together and form a tree to complete each puzzle. It's a complex brain twister with simple, effective graphics.
Forest Slasher
You control a blade that you use to shred down a forest. Beware, as the blade gets dull, you must hunt down power ups to sharpen your edges.
Christmas Farms
In this entry, you must take care and grow your trees. Ensure they get enough water and reach maturity, to sell them and make a profit.
Microwave High Simulator
A topdown shooter game where you must shoot woodsmen and take their weed so that you maintain your high.
Soarin' Squirrel
A simple flappy bird clone, in which you must avoid logs and pick up acorns to increase your score.
Killer Santa and the ungrateful Elves
A christmas themed shooter where you must grow trees, which you will use as ammo, and shoot them upwards towards the elves.
The Tree Up
A defense game where you prevent birds from attacking your tree, while also providing it with fertilizer to prevent it from dying.
A drive through the woods
A simple driving game, as the name implies. A relaxing drive though the woods.
Thank you for taking the time to put this together! This was a fun jam. - Xylem dev
