Phloranx
Help Daikon the dryad save her tree from destruction!
The local humans' war has spilled over into Daikon's forest, and the only things between a thousand fireballs and her tree are her trusty Shrubshields. Control them to fend off the flames as long as possible!
WASD to move (but only as far as her tree's roots can reach)
LShift to speed up her Shrubshields (but watch your stamina!)
Gradually increasing difficulty! A depressingly unwinnable game!

Hey! Cool concept! I was afraid it would be difficult to apprehend but it was simple and fun to play ^^ The theme was nice as well, well done! (38 was my best score....)
The game concept is really fun, especially paired the amazing art and music.
Omg the music! So good! It's so sad that this is unwinnable because I really want to win against my impending flame death. Fun game!
I have lost to the flames
Everyone does eventually...
