Leap and slash at flowers growing on the vines to propel yourself upward. Chain them together to go fast, but watch your step! Every level is a handcrafted tower with new mechanics being introduced regularly. Attacking flowers grows new procedural vines with leaves to jump on. Carefully balance leaping upward while watching how the vines will grow to plan your ascent. You'll need quick reflexes and even faster wit to reach the top! 



Travel from tower to tower in search of the missing Prince, braving unique environmental hazards through visually stunning and diverse locations. Follow The Gardener and The Knight as they quest to rescue The Prince in this fairy tale that explores love and all the pain and risks that come with it.

It's neat to see a longer take on that one tower level from Mickey Mania, but hitting flowers to unlock new leaves didn't gel with me--felt like platforming with extra steps--which is a pity when it seems to be the main mechanic.

Great game, aswell as the Music and Graphic. I recommend playing this game. I made a video about this game if someone is interested.

Hi there, just played your demo. The game looks absolutely awesome, but just to report that the demo crashes as soon as the door opens at the top of the towers (happened to me at the first and third towers, I didn't continue because I alredy restarted the game 4 times). 

Will definetly come back here later ! Thanks for this game :)

Oh no! Thank you so much for playing the demo and reporting this issue. When you get some time, could you let us know your device specifics (OS, hardware, etc) so that we can hopefully start to figure out what is going on? This is the first we've heard of an issue like this, but we would like to make sure our demo is as stable as possible.

Also if you get the chance and have a little time, you can check out the demo on Steam as well, and see if the behavior there matches too.

Just found this,
LOOKS SWEET AS!
I wish I had money to buy your game... #poor.

It looks interesting, and i love the look of the 3D + 2D gfx.
