Far From The Tree is a marble game, where the player must tilt the level in order to roll the player (being an acorn). Press down buttons, blast off from water pipes, and roll up those steep hills! Find a way to the final resting hole, to plant yourself in the ground!

Controls: WASD to tilt the level.

Code used in this game is available on GitLab here, released as open source under the MIT license. Font is under the OFL license. More information can be found in the Licenses folder in any of the downloads.
