Grow.Tree

Info

Grow.Tree is a joint flash and Processing project Jono Brandel and I created.

Using the Processing programming language, we coded a downloadable game in which players direct the growth of a tree that rapidly expands to encompass an entire planet. Players can then go online and plant their tree in an expansive virtual forest and leave messages for viewers and other players. My focus in the project was to develop the recursive system that allowed the tree to grow and be cut, and the PHP uploading and flash environment that provided a home to the completed trees.
