GROWTH ZONE: BIGGER IS BETTER ! (v0.3.4)
A downloadable game for Windows
This game is the sequel and remake of Growth Zone.
The game has been redesigned and reworked to offer better performance and more content.
"Thank you for signing up with us! You'll see, this job will change your life. On the other hand, I hope you know how to run, and that you don't get travel sick.."
Tiny Escape:
Play as a Macrocosmos employee, collect crystals and escape from these locations. Be careful, you're not alone. Several modes are available to vary the game.
The game is currently being worked on. More content will be added later. I'm pretty much working alone on the game, so the dev will take a while. If you want to help me and ensure that this game and perhaps others in the future continue to be created and improved, consider supporting me on Patreon.

Nightmare is absolutely broken, crashes when loading in without fail, five seconds flat, as if it has a memory leak, please fix or remove the map. No other map has this issue. Apart from that, excellent game! :D
City had a hard time loading in with lots of lagging which caused the game to be barley playable. also add in some city destruction for the gts sim.
Possible bug?
I made it through my first run, 23 blues and 1 gold, on daytime in the city with nothing extra. My pinky is still sore from holding shift almost the entire time. Took me about half an hour. Never once saw Toy Chica. I saw a little bit of her destruction, like some light posts being knocked down in the southeast region, but never her.
Try a second run, turn on Blackout, Double Trouble, and Xray. Start running around, decide to go east just because, see and hear two toy chica on the other side of the building from me. Suddenly, the one in front turns to her left and blips out of existence. Never seen again, as I come out from around the corner and only see the second one.
Not certain what happened, but I'm curious if this is why I never saw her or any further destruction in my first run; She just despawned for some reason. Couldn't get it to happen a third time, if that is what happened, in my following 4 short attempts, but I wonder if this may be a bug to be checked.
can you make a vr version
The game looks cool and I'm exited to see Growth Zone get a sequel. However I cant get this game to run properly as even on the lowest settings the game is either frozen completely or slow to the point where it is unplayable. I hope these issues can be rectified as I am exited to try the game out for real!
Hello! In the disclaimer I saw that this game also features vore. Is it planned or is it actually in the game right now?
amazing! can't wait for more update
It's really unstable, i managed to get the game to run smoothly once and now it just keeps freezing. I'm playing on an Acer aspire 7 laptop that can handle rather demanding games. My guess is it's either bugged smh, i fumbled something or it has some compatibility issues?
Was completely lost as to what the demo was really showing, and then she found me :3
Looking forward to the other modes!!
i don't know what's going on but it says the download is invalid
This is looking great!
I think this has good potential but need a lot work. (this got out hand)
My issues
1. The AI for the giantess is bad
In the City map I saw the Giantess 3 each run, and they never even got close to me. On backrooms maps they wandered away from me most of time.
2. Its very easy to avoid the Giantess
In City your never far from an alleyway, and on backrooms rounding one corner makes them forgot you exist.
3. The City map lacks character
The City feels empty, theirs no cars, no bench's, no trash cans or anything that makes it look like an actual city. and it has few cool or interesting landmarks that help navigate the map. Along side the much more open map layout makes Crystals spawn way father apart.
4. The Backrooms lack any notable features
The Backrooms lack ways to actually hide or interesting land marks like blocked off hall ways or left behind gear making it feel boring and rather Samey, Backrooms 2 makes this a bit better by having darker rooms, flickering lights and red lights.
5. The Giantess feel Samey
The Giantess outside model and Allice's Voice lines feel very Samey as only Karelia feels special in the way they attack as she sprints at you rather then walks.
6. The lack of growth is sad
Their is no growth outside of the death screens and its off camera. This was an issue i had with OG Growth zone but it later got at least some in other game modes
Suggestions on how to Fix
1. Give the Giantess hints and adding more counter play (Fixing 1&2)
I think giving the Giantess Hints to player location ever few minuets, and adding things like Mouse holes, and Distractions for the Giantess could make the core gameplay of cat and mouse more interesting. Better yet if you give the Giantess ways to counter those tools like blocking, or camping the mouse holes if the player uses them too much, destroying buildings to prevent the player from using alleyways to escape or laying traps for player in areas they travel often I believe could make the Tiny escape mode so much more fun.
2. Adding more details to the maps (Fixing 3-4)
By adding more details like Cars, Benches, Etc on the city and bodies, forgotten gear and the like could make the backrooms feel less empty.
3. Giving the Giantess abiltys(fixing 5)
Give each of the giantess something that makes them special even in a minor way like stats differences like memory or speed and maybe in major way like Giving Alice the agility to put down ink traps that slow down the play and or alert her to their location. Along side voice lines could give each character a unique feel.
4. Lettings the Giantess grow
Every time you grab a crystal they get bigger or after X amount of time they start getting bigger to pressure the player to work harder, better, faster.
when will the clicker part of the game come out
look i really dont mean to sound rude but this genuinely sucks so so so bad. the tiny escape is basically just hold shift and w and run around aimlessly until you find one crystal then rinse and repeat. and i cant find that portal to save my damn life either
also the girls are hardly ever a threat and most of the gameplay is just a running simulator
We love you Golba!
looking good and polished
Keep it up
Hoping for the best for ya! Can't wait to see what other characters you bring too and any possible new kinks too, but first focus on yourself and focus on recreating it as much as possible! I believe in you!
