The main goal of the game is to KILL CONE as you can't get out of the forest without them dead. You survive by placing towers (that have something like BB guns) to kill THE SIMPS FOR CONE witch will kill you on sight. You get more powerful as you progress in the game but everything has a cost, witch must be payed before you can survive:

Towers: costs globs witch are easy to get but they get more expensive as they get better.

Upgrades: costs minerals, you get that in the mines.

GUNS: costs globs and minerals in high amounts, shotgun requires metal. ammo is needed, but is cheap as you get it for collecting minerals, You must shoot the gun to do anything with it!

Tools: costs globs, however they must be used by the player to do anything at all. (the lazy things!)

sources: you get globs on the surface, you get metal after beating "cone", and minerals are in the mines witch are gardened by a unstoppable beast (don't worry he's blind) all are quite easy to get but globs are easier than the others because they're secrets that give a lot of globs to the player.

tldr: get glob. buy tower. stay alive.

If you want to beat the game, here's how.

1: get in the cave that's in the far left front of your base.

2: solve baby's first puzzle difficulty puzzles (super easy) the first one is going up to three different pillars and pressing space, the second one is pushing a box (hint for this one: push the box towards other boxes) the third is a code witch you enter on a keypad down a weird hallway (the code is 6840 or something like that)

3: chase the fat thing (???) outside the cave (secret: stay in the area where you found the fat thing for a 1 min length time and you'll get a bunch of globs.) and into a pillar of light, this will kill the fat thing. if night occurs before you can get outside the water area, STAY INSIDE THE WATER ZONE! You can't fight the things that spawn on the first floor of the cave at night. wait until day and presume the fat thing you were chasing.

4: upon killing the fat thing you will get a core, use this at the computer to get junior, (junior is only used for one thing) light the 4 pillars in the corners of the map with junior (bait junior to go over the pillar to light it) and then go into the hole in the ground that appears (left front of your base) it will be marked by 4 spires in the corners of the hole, in the hole you will get the cone file, go into your base and use the computer to go to files and open the cone file, this will have BORING LORE THAT IS USELESS then close the file and go to "towers" cone will appear as a little icon that if you click you will summon cone.

5: fight cone. this will most of the time be easy but be prepared! as cone is dangerous and can end your run with a mere touch. this will give the bad ending, the second easiest ending (the easiest ending is going back the "way you came" to exit the forest giving you the boring ending) when you hear "I... am... weak..." bait cone into going into the pillar of light from earlier and he'll die! this allows you to get the good ending (hardest ending) by getting enough metal to escape the forest by building a helicopter! (how)

tldr: cave, puzzles, fat thing, KILL, night bad, fire child, light the pillars, cave 2, file, computer, open file, close file, summon cone, fight cone, pillar-of-light cone, cone dead, get metal, Lego ad-like escape.

Welcome to the glitch section! This will be short.

You can place any tower on top of any other tower!

You can place towers in midair! This makes floods easy as all they do now is obscure your vision!

You can place walls ANYWHERE! I'm not joking! You can put walls in your door! (If you do this you can jump to enter your base) Towers included!

secrets are present in this game mostly for fun it seems, but they can give you globs sometimes.

1: On the beach there is a pillar. If you go near it, it explodes into a bunch of globs for you to collect.

2: At your house after beating cone (after you build the helicopter and go home) if you go into the bathroom and wait you will see something come out of the toilet. (NOT BRAINROT)

3: In the area where you find the fat thing, if you wait a giant cone will give you a bunch of globs (they might be hard to see at night)

the end.
