  After some pretty immediate feedback on the v1.0 gameplay, I've decided to add a hint about how to use logs to make fire. This pops up when you first collide with a log pile while you otherwise wouldn't just make the fire. I had also considered adding something to check for a lost game session, i.e. there's no way left to grow all the trees, but it turns out that the flowchart for that gets stupid... Continue reading

The game-end sequence is polished up so that you can't force the shutter animation off center. And as a general... Continue reading
