Iโ€™m continuing my mission to improve Unity.
I add a scene selector to quickly find levels.
Also, I add autoplay in fullscreen with F11 for instant launch.
Hex Harmony update

The game now has an English translation.
A big announcement is coming at the end of the week ๐Ÿ‘€

โšก Dev update โ€“ Hex Harmony
Iโ€™ve added the first advanced technology: a teleportation portal that swaps two tiles on the grid!
The mechanics are getting deeper and opening up new strategic puzzle possibilities.

This week, I added cities to the grid! They can now grow, but only if they receive enough electricity from wind turbines.

Chlorolink one-page document. Contains info about the game, as well as its pitch!
Management solo game on PC, playable with Mouse & Keyboard. Should be roughly 2-4 hours. Made for a casual audience who loves management games, low-pressure gameplay with cosy vibes.

Pitch: "Chlorolink is a cosy ecosystem management game in which plants intertwine with each others through a dense root network. Your goal is to help Luxette, a sprout of light, to reawaken the world from its slumber. To achieve this, you will need to tend to each plant to help them grow and connect. Maintaining a delicate balance will allow the ecosystem to flourish! Each new link nourish the network, opening new ways towards biomes and secrets. Tend to this ever growing ecosystem in a relaxing adventure in which every link matters!"
There is also a presentation of the team, 3 people. Florian "Laywelin" Baheux, programmer. Amanda "Mantelia" Casaretto, artist, and Nicolas "Zdieska" Casaretto, artist too. Musics are made by Sacha Clerc-Renaud.

We should be able to do our first rounds of playtest in the coming weeks!!!
