The tree (yes, in its entirety).
The Pg Tree is an Idle Game made in The Modding Tree by pg132 and released in 2020. While it does look like the average no-effort template mod at first (since it has a green P dot and the version number is 0.0), it has enough content to stand as a short mod in its own right, with three school-themed layers. It is playable on Githack
.
This game provides examples of:
- Challenge Run: The middle school layer unlocks challenges that involve reaching a certain amount of points while under a point/prestige reduction. Each completion raises the goal and the challenge's overall difficulty, but certain upgrades can make the latter more forgiving.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Each layer has its own color.
- Prestige: Green
- Elementary School: Yellow
- Middle School: Rust
- Diminishing Returns for Balance: The Exponentiation upgrade has a softcap for its effect. It is supposed to be removed by the Solving Equations upgrade, but apparently doesn't.
- Export Save: You can copy the 1KB+ save file by pushing a button and paste it into the game.
- Reset Milestones: The Middle School layer has milestones named after things related to school (Student, Group Project, Class, Grade, and Middle School) that are unlocked for having a certain number of Middle School Students (from 1 to 640). The bonuses include keeping a row of prestige upgrades per milestone, a new row of upgrades, raising Middle School Student gain to 1.5, and gaining a percentage of Elementary School Students per second.
- Theme Naming: Upgrades in the prestige layer are named after mathematical operations and terminology, while the ones in school layers are based on typical respective learning activities.
